John 13:16-16:33 Verily, verily, I say to you, That no servant is greater than his lord; and no legate is greater than he who sent him.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ Verily, verily, I say to you, That no servant is greater than his lord; and no legate is greater than he who sent him. ¹⁷ If ye know these things, happy will ye be if ye do them. ¹⁸ Not of you all, do I speak: I know whom I have chosen. But that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me, hath lifted his heel against me. ¹⁹ From this time, I tell you, before it occurs, that when it shall occur, ye may know that I am he. ²⁰ Verily, verily, I say to you: He that receiveth him whom I send, receiveth me; and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me. ²¹ These things said Jesus, and he was agitated in his spirit; and he testified, and said: Verily, verily, I say to you, That one of you will betray me. ²² And the disciples stared at one another; because they knew not, of whom he spake. ²³ And there was one of his disciples, who was reclining on his bosom, he whom Jesus loved; ²⁴ to him Simon Cephas beckoned, that he should ask him, who it was of whom he spoke. ²⁵ And that disciple fell upon the breast of Jesus, and said to him: My Lord, which is he? ²⁶ Jesus answered and said: He it is, to whom I give the bread when I have dipped it. And Jesus dipped the bread, and gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. ²⁷ And after the bread, then Satan entered into him. And Jesus said to him: What thou doest, do quickly. ²⁸ And no one of those reclining, knew, wherefore he said this to him. ²⁹ For some of them supposed, because the purse was in the hands of Judas, that Jesus expressly charged him to buy something needful for the feast, or that he should give something to the poor. ³⁰ And Judas took the bread at once, and went out of the house. And it was night when he went out. ³¹ And Jesus said: Now is the Son of man glorified; and God is glorified in him. ³² And if God is glorified in him, God will glorify him in himself; and will glorify him speedily. ³³ My children, a little longer I am with you; and ye will seek for me; and, as I said to the Jews, Whither I go ye cannot come, so I now say to you. ³⁴ A new commandment I give to you, that ye be affectionate to each other. As I have loved you, do ye also love one another. ³⁵ By this will every one know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love for each other. ³⁶ Simon Cephas said to him: Our Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered, and said to him: Whither I go, thou canst not now come after me; but thou wilt at last come. ³⁷ Simon Cephas said to him: My Lord, why can I not come after thee? I would lay down my life for thee. ³⁸ Jesus said to him: Wouldst thou lay down thy life for me? Verily, verily, I say to thee, The cock will not crow, until thou hast three times denied me. ¹⁴ ¹ Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, and, believe in me. ² There are many mansions in the house of my Father: and if not, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. ³ And if I go to prepare for you a place, I will come again and take you to myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. ⁴ And whither I go, ye know; and the way ye know. ⁵ Thomas said to him: Our Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? ⁶ Jesus said to him: I am the way, and truth, and life: no one cometh unto my Father, but by me. ⁷ If ye had known me, ye would also have known my Father: and henceforth, ye know him, and have seen him. ⁸ Philip said to him: Our Lord, show us the Father, and it will suffice for us. ⁹ Jesus said to him: Have I been all this time with you, and hast thou not known me, Philip? He that seeth me, seeth the Father: and how sayest thou, Show us the Father? ¹⁰ Believest thou not, that I am in my Father, and my Father in me? And the words which I speak, I speak not from myself: but my Father, who dwelleth in me, he doeth these works. ¹¹ Believe, that I am in my Father, and my Father in me. And if not, believe, at least, on account of the works. ¹² Verily, verily, I say to you: He that believeth in me, the works which I do, will he also do. And greater than these will he do, because I go unto my Father. ¹³ And what ye shall ask in my name, I will do for you; that the Father may be glorified in his Son. ¹⁴ And if ye shall ask of me, in my name, I will do it. ¹⁵ If ye love me, keep my commands. ¹⁶ And I will ask of my Father, and he will give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever, ¹⁷ the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, and knoweth him not: but ye know him, because he abideth with you, and is in you. ¹⁸ I shall not leave you orphans: for I shall come to you in a little while. ¹⁹ And the world will not see me; but ye will see me. Because I live, ye will live also. ²⁰ In that day ye will know, that I am in my Father; and that ye are in me, and I in you. ²¹ He, with whom are my commands, and who keepeth them, he it is that loveth me. And he that loveth me, will be loved by my Father: and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. ²² Judas, not Iscariot, said to him: My Lord, how is it that thou art to manifest thyself to us, and not to the world? ²³ Jesus answered, and said to him: He that loveth me, observeth my instruction; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our abode with him. ²⁴ But he that loveth me not, observeth not my instruction. And the instruction which ye hear, is not mine, but the Father's who sent me. ²⁵ These things have I said to you, while I was with you. ²⁶ But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you every thing, and will remind you of all that I say to you. ²⁷ Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. It is not as the world giveth, that I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor be afraid. ²⁸ Ye have heard what I said to you that I go away, and come again to you. If ye had loved me, ye would have rejoiced, that I go to my Father; for my Father is greater than I ²⁹ And now, lo, I have told you, before it occurreth; so that when it shall have occurred, ye may believe. ³⁰ Hereafter I shall not converse much with you; for the ruler of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. ³¹ But that the world may know, that I love my Father, and as my Father commanded me, so I do. Arise; let us go hence. ¹⁵ ¹ I am the true vine; and my Father is the cultivator. ² Every branch in me, which yieldeth not fruits, he taketh it away: and that which yieldeth fruits, he cleanseth it, that it may yield more fruits. ³ Ye henceforth are clean, on account of the discourse I have held with you. ⁴ Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot yield fruits of itself, unless it abide in the vine; so also, neither can ye, unless ye abide in me. ⁵ I am the vine, and ye are the branches. He that abideth in me, and I in him, he yieldeth much fruit; for without me, ye can do nothing. ⁶ And if a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a withered branch; and they gather it up, and cast it into the fire to be burned. ⁷ But if ye shall abide in me, and my instructions shall abide in you, whatever ye shall be pleased to ask, it will be given to you. ⁸ In this is the Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and ye will be my disciples. ⁹ As my Father hath loved me, I also have loved you: abide ye in the love of me. ¹⁰ If ye shall keep my commands, ye will abide in the love of me, as I have kept the commands of my Father, and abide in his love. ¹¹ These things have I spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete. ¹² This is my command, that ye love one another, as I have loved you. ¹³ There is no greater love than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. ¹⁴ Ye are my friends, if ye do all that I command you. ¹⁵ I no longer call you servants; because a servant knoweth not what his lord doeth; but I have called you my friends; because, whatever I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you. ¹⁶ It is not ye that chose me, but I that have chosen you; and I have appointed you, that ye also should go and yield fruits, and that your fruits should continue; so that whatever ye may ask of my Father in my name, he may give it you. ¹⁷ These things I command you, that ye should love one another. ¹⁸ And if the world hate you, know ye, that it hated me before you. ¹⁹ And if ye were of the world, the world would love what is of it. But ye are not of the world, for I have chosen you out of the world; for this cause, the world hateth you. ²⁰ Remember the word that I spoke to you, That there is no servant, who is greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; and if they have observed my teaching, they will also observe yours. ²¹ But all these things will they do to you, on account of my name, because they know not him that sent me. ²² If I had not come and discoursed with them, sin would not have been to them; but now there is no excuse for their sins. ²³ He that hateth me, hateth my Father also. ²⁴ If I had not wrought before them works which no other person ever did, sin would not have been to them: but now they have seen, and have hated, both me and my Father; ²⁵ so that in them will be fulfilled the word which is written in their law: They hated me, without a cause. ²⁶ But when the Comforter shall come, whom I will send to you from my Father, that Spirit of truth who proceedeth from the Father, He will testify of me. ²⁷ And do ye also testify; for ye have been with me from the beginning. ¹⁶ ¹ These things have I said to you, that ye may not be stumbled. ² For they will eject you from their synagogues; and the hour will come, that whoever shall kill you, will suppose that he presenteth an offering to God. ³ And these things will they do, because they have not known either my Father, or me. ⁴ These things have I spoken to you, that when the time of them cometh, ye may recollect, that I told you of them. And I did not tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you. ⁵ But now, I am going to Him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou? ⁶ And because I have told you these things, sorrow hath come and hath filled your hearts. ⁷ But I tell you the truth, that it is profitable for you that I go away; for, if I go not away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. ⁸ And when he is come, he will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment. ⁹ Of sin because they believe not in me: ¹⁰ and of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more: ¹¹ and of Judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged. ¹² Moreover, I have much to say to you: but ye cannot comprehend it now. ¹³ But when the Spirit of truth shall come, he will lead you into all the truth. For he will not speak from his own mind; but whatever he heareth, that will he speak: and he will make known to you things to come. ¹⁴ He will glorify me; because he will receive of what is mine, and will show it to you. ¹⁵ Whatever the Father hath, is mine: therefore said I to you that he will receive of what is mine, and will show it to you. ¹⁶ A little while, and ye will not see me; and again a little while, and ye will see me; because I go to the Father. ¹⁷ And his disciples said one to another: What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye will not see me and again a little while, and ye will see me, because I go to my Father? ¹⁸ And they said: What is this little while, of which he speaketh? We know not what he saith. ¹⁹ And Jesus knew, that they desired to ask him; and he said to them: Are ye debating with each other, of what I said to you, A little while, and ye will not see me, and again a little while, and ye will see me? ²⁰ Verily, verily, I say to you, That ye will weep and lament: And the world will rejoice, while to you will be sorrow. But your sorrow will be turned to joy. ²¹ A woman, in bringing forth, hath sorrow, for the day of her travail hath come: but when she hath brought forth a son, she remembereth not her anguish, because of the joy that a human being is born into the world. ²² Ye also now have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will deprive you of your joy. ²³ And in that day ye will ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say to you, That whatsoever ye shall ask of my Father in my name, he will give to you. ²⁴ Hitherto ye have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and ye will receive; that your joy may be complete. ²⁵ These things have I spoken to you in allegories: but the hour will come, when I shall not speak to you in allegories, but I will speak to you plainly of the Father. ²⁶ In that day ye will ask in my name; and I do not say to you, that I will pray to the Father for you; ²⁷ for the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I proceeded from the presence of the Father. ²⁸ I proceeded forth from before the Father, and came into the world; and again I leave the world, and go to the Father. ²⁹ His disciples say to him: Lo, now thou speakest plainly, and thou utterest no allegory. ³⁰ Now know we, that thou knowest every thing; and thou hast no need, that any one should ask thee: by this we believe, that thou didst proceed from God. ³¹ Jesus said to them: Do ye believe? ³² Behold, the hour cometh, and hath now come, when ye will be dispersed, each to his place; and ye will leave me alone. But I am not alone, for the Father is with me. ³³ These things have I said to you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye will have trouble: but, take courage, I have vanquished the world.
