¹ “Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.

¹ልባችሁ አይታወክ፤ በእግዚአብሔር እመኑ፥ በእኔም ደግሞ እመኑ።

² In my Father’s house are many homes. If it weren’t so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you.

²በአባቴ ቤት ብዙ መኖሪያ አለ፤ እንዲህስ ባይሆን ባልኋችሁ ነበር፤ ስፍራ አዘጋጅላችሁ ዘንድ እሄዳለሁና፤

³ If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.

³ሄጄም ስፍራ ባዘጋጅላችሁ፥ እኔ ባለሁበት እናንተ ደግሞ እንድትሆኑ ሁለተኛ እመጣለሁ ወደ እኔም እወስዳችኋለሁ።

⁴ Where I go, you know, and you know the way.”

⁴ወደምሄድበትም ታውቃላችሁ፥ መንገዱንም ታውቃላችሁ።

⁵Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”

⁵ቶማስም። ጌታ ሆይ፥ ወደምትሄድበት አናውቅም፤ እንዴትስ መንገዱን እናውቃለን? አለው።

⁶Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.

⁶ኢየሱስም። እኔ መንገድና እውነት ሕይወትም ነኝ፤ በእኔ በቀር ወደ አብ የሚመጣ የለም።

⁷ If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and have seen him.”

⁷እኔንስ ብታውቁኝ አባቴን ደግሞ ባወቃችሁ ነበር። ከአሁንም ጀምራችሁ ታውቁታላችሁ አይታችሁትማል አለው።

⁸Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”

⁸ፊልጶስ። ጌታ ሆይ፥ አብን አሳየንና ይበቃናል አለው።

⁹Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, ‘Show us the Father?’

⁹ኢየሱስም አለው። አንተ ፊልጶስ፥ ይህን ያህል ዘመን ከእናንተ ጋር ስኖር አታውቀኝምን? እኔን ያየ አብን አይቶአል፤ እንዴትስ አንተ። አብን አሳየን ትላለህ?

¹⁰ Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself; but the Father who lives in me does his works.

¹⁰እኔ በአብ እንዳለሁ አብም በእኔ እንዳለ አታምንምን? እኔ የምነግራችሁን ቃል ከራሴ አልናገረውም፤ ነገር ግን በእኔ የሚኖረው አብ እርሱ ሥራውን ይሠራል።

¹¹ Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or else believe me for the very works’ sake.

¹¹እኔ በአብ እንዳለሁ አብም በእኔ እንዳለ እመኑኝ፤ ባይሆንስ ስለ ራሱ ስለ ሥራው እመኑኝ።

¹² Most certainly I tell you, he who believes in me, the works that I do, he will do also; and he will do greater works than these, because I am going to my Father.

¹²እውነት እውነት እላችኋለሁ፥ በእኔ የሚያምን እኔ የማደርገውን ሥራ እርሱ ደግሞ ያደርጋል፤ ከዚህም የሚበልጥ ያደርጋል፥

¹³ Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

¹³እኔ ወደ አብ እሄዳለሁና፤ አብም ስለ ወልድ እንዲከበር በስሜ የምትለምኑትን ሁሉ አደርገዋለሁ።

¹⁴ If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.

¹⁴ማናቸውንም ነገር በስሜ ብትለምኑ እኔ አደርገዋለሁ።

¹⁵ If you love me, keep my commandments.

¹⁵ብትወዱኝ ትእዛዜን ጠብቁ። እኔም አብን እለምናለሁ ለዘላለምም ከእናንተ ጋር እንዲኖር ሌላ አጽናኝ ይሰጣችኋል፤

¹⁶ I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, Greek Parakleton: Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, and Comforter. that he may be with you forever,—

¹⁷እርሱም ዓለም የማያየውና የማያውቀው ስለ ሆነ ሊቀበለው የማይቻለው የእውነት መንፈስ ነው፤ ነገር ግን ከእናንተ ዘንድ ስለሚኖር በውሥጣችሁም ስለሚሆን እናንተ ታውቃላችሁ።

¹⁷ the Spirit of truth, whom the world can’t receive; for it doesn’t see him, neither knows him. You know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you.

¹⁸ወላጆች እንደ ሌላቸው ልጆች አልተዋችሁም፤ ወደ እናንተ እመጣለሁ።

¹⁸ I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.

¹⁹ገና ጥቂት ዘመን አለ ከዚህም በኋላ ዓለም አያየኝም፤ እናንተ ግን ታዩኛላችሁ፤ እኔ ሕያው ነኝና እናንተ ደግሞ ሕያዋን ትሆናላችሁ።

¹⁹ Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me. Because I live, you will live also.

²⁰እኔ በአባቴ እንዳለሁ እናንተም በእኔ እንዳላችሁ እኔም በእናንተ እንዳለሁ በዚያን ቀን ታውቃላችሁ።

²⁰ In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.

²¹ትእዛዜ በእርሱ ዘንድ ያለችው የሚጠብቃትም የሚወደኝ እርሱ ነው፤ የሚወደኝንም አባቴ ይወደዋል እኔም እወደዋለሁ ራሴንም እገልጥለታለሁ።

²¹ One who has my commandments, and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”

²²የአስቆሮቱ ያይደለ ይሁዳ። ጌታ ሆይ፥ ለዓለም ሳይሆን ራስህን ለእኛ ልትገልጥ ያለህ እንዴት ነው? አለው።

²²Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, what has happened that you are about to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?”

²³ኢየሱስም መለሰ አለውም። የሚወደኝ ቢኖር ቃሌን ይጠብቃል፤ አባቴም ይወደዋል ወደ እርሱም እንመጣለን በእርሱም ዘንድ መኖሪያ እናደርጋለን።

²³Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our home with him.

²⁴የማይወደኝ ቃሌን አይጠብቅም፤ የምትሰሙትም ቃል የላከኝ የአብ ነው እንጂ የእኔ አይደለም።

²⁴ He who doesn’t love me doesn’t keep my words. The word which you hear isn’t mine, but the Father’s who sent me.

²⁵ከእናንተ ዘንድ ስኖር ይህን ነግሬአችኋለሁ፤

²⁵ I have said these things to you, while still living with you.

²⁶አብ በስሜ የሚልከው ግን መንፈስ ቅዱስ የሆነው አጽናኝ እርሱ ሁሉን ያስተምራችኋል እኔም የነገርኋችሁን ሁሉ ያሳስባችኋል።

²⁶ But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.

²⁷ሰላምን እተውላችኋለሁ፥ ሰላሜን እሰጣችኋለሁ፤ እኔ የምሰጣችሁ ዓለም እንደሚሰጥ አይደለም። ልባችሁ አይታወክ አይፍራም።

²⁷ Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, give I to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.

²⁸እኔ እሄዳለሁ ወደ እናንተም እመጣለሁ እንዳልኋችሁ ሰማችሁ። የምትወዱኝስ ብትሆኑ ከእኔ አብ ይበልጣልና ወደ አብ በመሄዴ ደስ ባላችሁ ነበር።

²⁸ You heard how I told you, ‘I go away, and I come to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I said ‘I am going to my Father;’ for the Father is greater than I.

²⁹ከሆነም በኋላ ታምኑ ዘንድ አሁን አስቀድሞ ሳይሆን። ነግሬአችኋለሁ።

²⁹ Now I have told you before it happens so that, when it happens, you may believe.

³⁰ከእንግዲህ ወዲህ ከእናንተ ጋር ብዙ አልናገርም፥ የዚህ ዓለም ገዥ ይመጣልና፤ በእኔ ላይም አንዳች የለውም፤

³⁰ I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.

³¹ነገር ግን አብን እንድወድ ዓለም ሊያውቅ፥ አብም እንዳዘዘኝ፥ እንዲሁ አደርጋለሁ። ተነሡ፤ ከዚህ እንሂድ።

³¹ But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, even so I do. Arise, let us go from here.
