- If you keep my commandments,
you will remain in my love,
just as I have kept my Father’s commandments
and remain in his love. - I have told you these things
so that my joy may be in you
and your joy may be complete. - This is my commandment:
love one another
as I have loved you. - No one can have greater love
than to lay down his life for his friends. - You did not choose me.
Rather, I chose you.
And I appointed you
to go out and bear fruit,
fruit that will remain,
so that the Father may give you
whatever you ask him in my name. - If the world hates you,
be aware that it hated me
before it hated you. - When the Advocate comes
whom I will send you from the Father,
the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father,
he will testify on my behalf. - Nevertheless, I am telling you the truth:
it is better for you that I depart.
For if I do not go away,
the Advocate will not come to you,
whereas if I go,
I will send him to you. - And when he comes,
he will prove the world wrong
about sin and righteousness and judgment. - Until now, in my name,
you have not asked for anything.
Ask and you will receive,
so that your joy may be complete. - I came from the Father
and have come into the world.
Now I am leaving the world
and returning to the Father. - I have told you this
so that in me you may be in peace.
In the world
you will endure suffering.
But take courage!
I have overcome the world. - And eternal life is this:
to know you,
the only true God,
and the one you have sent,
Jesus Christ. - I am not asking you
to take them out of the world,
but I do ask you
to protect them from the evil one. - Father, allow those you have given me
to be with me where I am,
so that they may behold my glory,
which you have bestowed on me
because you loved me
before the foundation of the world. - I have made your name known to them,
and I will make it known,
so that the love with which you loved me
may be in them, and I in them. - When Jesus had taken the wine, he said, “It is finished.” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
- Then the other disciple who had reached the tomb first also went inside, and he saw and believed. They still did not understand the Scripture indicating that he must rise from the dead.
- Jesus then said to her, “Do not hold on to me, because I have not yet ascended to my Father. But go to my brethren and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’ ”
- “Peace be with you,” Jesus said to them again.
“As the Father has sent me,
so I send you.” - Then Jesus said to him,
“You have come to believe
because you have seen me.
Blessed are those who have not seen
and yet have come to believe.” - In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God. - Through him all things came into existence,
and without him there was nothing.
That which came to be. - The light shines in the darkness,
and the darkness has been unable to overcome it. - However, to those who did accept him
and who believed in his name
he granted the power to become children of God.
