¹⁵“If you love Me, you will keep ^uMy commands. ^v¹⁶And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another ^•Counselor ^wto be with you forever. ¹⁷He is the Spirit ^xof truth. ^yThe ^•world is unable to receive Him because it doesn’t see Him or know Him. But you do know Him, because He remains with you and will be ^zin you. ^a¹⁸I will not leave you as orphans; I am coming to you.

The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit

¹⁹“In a little while the world will see Me no longer, ^bbut you will see Me. ^cBecause I live, you will live ^dtoo. ²⁰In that day you will know that I am in My Father, ^eyou are in Me, and I am in you. ²¹The one who has My commands and keeps them is the one who loves Me. ^fAnd the one who loves Me will be loved by My Father. ^gI also will love him and will reveal Myself to him.”

²²Judas ^h(not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, how is it You’re going to reveal Yourself to us and not to the world?” ⁱ

²³Jesus answered, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word. My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. ^j²⁴The one who doesn’t love Me will not keep My words. The word that you hear is not Mine but is from the Father who sent Me. ^k

²⁵“I have spoken these things to you while I remain with you. ²⁶But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit ^l—the Father will send ^mHim in My name—will teach you all things ⁿand remind you of everything I have told you. ^o

Jesus’ Gift of Peace

²⁷“Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Your heart must not be troubled or fearful. ^p²⁸You have heard Me tell you, ‘I am going away ^qand I am coming to you.’ If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced that I am going to the Father, ^rbecause the Father is greater than I. ^s²⁹I have told you now before it happens ^tso that when it does happen you may believe. ³⁰I will not talk with you much longer, because the ruler of the world ^uis coming. He has no power over Me. ^v^w³¹On the contrary, I am going away ^xso that the world may know that I love the Father. Just as the Father commanded Me, so I do.

“Get up; let’s leave this place.
