1. “Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.
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.
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.
4. You know where I go, and you know the way.”
5. Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
6. Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
7. If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him and have seen him.”
8. Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”
9. Jesus 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’?
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.
11. Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or else believe me for the very works’ sake.
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.
13. Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.
15. If you love me, keep my commandments.
16. I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever:
17. the Spirit of truth, whom the world can’t receive, for it doesn’t see him and doesn’t know him. You know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.
18. I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.
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.
20. In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
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.”
22. Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, what has happened that you are about to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?”
23. Jesus 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.
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.
25. “I have said these things to you while still living with you.
26. But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.
27. Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.
28. You heard how I told you, ‘I am going away, and I will come back 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.
29. Now I have told you before it happens so that when it happens, you may believe.
30. I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.
31. But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, even so I do. Arise, let’s go from here.

2. Chap. xiv. Consolations. Jésus va préparer, auprès de son Père, une place pour ses Apôtres(1-11). Il leur donnera une grande puissance et exaucera toutes leurs prières(12-14). Il leur enverra le Saint-Esprit(15-17). Il reviendra lui-même parmi eux, d’une manière mystique(18-24). Le Saint-Esprit sera toujours avec eux pour les guider et les instruire(25-26). Jésus leur laisse sa paix(27-31).
1. « Que votre cœur ne se trouble pas. Vous croyez en Dieu, croyez aussi en moi.
2. Il y a beaucoup de demeures dans la maison de mon Père ; s’il en était autrement, je vous l’aurais dit, car je vais vous y préparer une place.
3. Et lorsque je m’en serai allé et que je vous aurai préparé une place, je reviendrai, et je vous prendrai avec moi, afin que là où je suis, vous y soyez aussi ;
4. et là où je vais, vous en savez le chemin. »
5. Thomas lui dit : « Seigneur, nous ne savons où tu vas ; comment donc en saurions-nous le chemin ? »
6. Jésus lui dit : « Je suis le chemin, la vérité et la vie ; nul ne vient au Père que par moi.
7. Si vous m’aviez connu, vous auriez aussi connu mon Père… dès à présent vous le connaissez, et vous l’avez vu. »
8. Philippe lui dit : « Seigneur, montrez-nous le Père, et cela nous suffit. »
9. Jésus lui répondit : « Il y a longtemps que je suis avec vous, et tu ne m’as pas connu ? Philippe, celui qui m’a vu, a vu aussi le Père. Comment peux-tu dire : Montrez-nous le Père !
10. Ne crois-tu pas que je suis dans le Père, et que le Père est en moi ? Les paroles que je vous dis, je ne les dis pas de moi-même : le Père qui demeure en moi fait lui-même ces œuvres.
11. Croyez sur ma parole que je suis dans le Père, et que le Père est en moi.
12. Croyez-le du moins à cause de ces œuvres. En vérité, en vérité, je vous le dis, celui qui croit en moi fera aussi les œuvres que je fais, et il en fera de plus grandes, parce que je m’en vais au Père,
13. et que tout ce que vous demanderez au Père en mon nom, je le ferai, afin que le Père soit glorifié dans le Fils.
14. Si vous me demandez quelque chose en mon nom, je le ferai.
15. Si vous m’aimez, gardez mes commandements.
16. Et moi, je prierai le Père, et il vous donnera un autre Consolateur, pour qu’il demeure toujours avec vous ;
17. c’est l’Esprit de vérité, que le monde ne peut recevoir, parce qu’il ne le voit pas et ne le connaît pas ; mais vous, vous le connaissez, parce qu’il demeure au milieu de vous ; et il sera en vous.
18. Je ne vous laisserai pas orphelins ; je viendrai à vous.
19. Encore un peu de temps, et le monde ne me verra plus ; mais vous, vous me verrez, parce que je vis, et que vous vivrez.
20. En ce jour-là, vous connaîtrez que je suis en mon Père, et vous en moi, et moi en vous.
21. Celui qui a mes commandements et qui les garde, c’est celui-là qui m’aime ; et celui qui m’aime sera aimé de mon Père ; et moi je l’aimerai et je me manifesterai à lui. »
22. Judas, non pas l’Iscariote, lui dit : « Seigneur, comment se fait-il que tu veuilles te manifester à nous, et non au monde ? »
23. Jésus lui répondit : « Si quelqu’un m’aime, il gardera ma parole, et mon Père l’aimera, et nous viendrons à lui, et nous ferons chez lui notre demeure.
24. Celui qui ne m’aime pas, ne gardera pas mes paroles. Et la parole que vous entendez n’est pas de moi, mais du Père qui m’a envoyé.
25. Je vous ai dit ces choses pendant que je demeure avec vous.
26. Mais le Consolateur, l’Esprit-Saint, que mon Père enverra en mon nom, lui, vous enseignera toutes choses, et vous rappellera tout ce que je vous ai dit.
27. Je vous laisse la paix, je vous donne ma paix ; je ne la donne pas comme la donne le monde. Que votre cœur ne se trouble pas et ne s’effraye pas.
28. Vous avez entendu que je vous ai dit : Je m’en vais, et je reviens à vous. Si vous m’aimiez, vous vous réjouiriez de ce que je vais au Père, car mon Père est plus grand que moi.
29. Et maintenant, je vous ai dit ces choses avant qu’elles n’arrivent, afin que, quand elles seront arrivées, vous croyiez.
30. Je ne m’entretiendrai plus guère avec vous, car le Prince de ce monde vient et il n’a rien en moi.
31. Mais afin que le monde sache que j’aime mon Père, et que j’agis selon le commandement que mon Père m’a donné, levez-vous, partons d’ici. »

Biblia Vulgata Clementina (1598), Migne witness (1880)
1. Non turbetur cor vestrum. Creditis in Deum, et in me credite.
2. In domo Patris mei mansiones multæ sunt; si quominus dixissem vobis: quia vado parare vobis locum.
3. Et si abiero, et præparavero vobis locum, iterum venio, et accipiam vos ad meipsum: ut ubi sum ego, et vos sitis.
4. Et quo ego vado scitis, et viam scitis.
5. Dicit ei Thomas: Domine, nescimus quo vadis: et quomodo possumus viam scire?
6. Dicit ei Jesus: Ego sum via, et veritas, et vita. Nemo venit ad Patrem, nisi per me.
7. Si cognovissetis me, et Patrem meum utique cognovissetis: et amodo cognoscetis eum, et vidistis eum.
8. Dicit ei Philippus: Domine, ostende nobis Patrem, et sufficit nobis.
9. Dicit ei Jesus: Tanto tempore vobiscum sum, et non cognovistis me? Philippe, qui videt me, videt et Patrem. Quomodo tu dicis: Ostende nobis Patrem?
10. Non creditis quia ego in Patre, et Pater in me est? Verba quæ ego loquor vobis, a meipso non loquor. Pater autem in me manens, ipse fecit opera.
11. Non creditis quia ego in Patre, et Pater in me est?
12. alioquin propter opera ipsa credite. Amen, amen dico vobis, qui credit in me, opera quæ ego facio, et ipse faciet, et majora horum faciet: quia ego ad Patrem vado.
13. Et quodcumque petieritis Patrem in nomine meo, hoc faciam: ut glorificetur Pater in Filio.
14. Si quid petieritis me in nomine meo, hoc faciam.
15. Si diligitis me, mandata mea servate:
16. et ego rogabo Patrem, et alium Paraclitum dabit vobis, ut maneat vobiscum in æternum,
17. Spiritum veritatis, quem mundus non potest accipere, quia non videt eum, nec scit eum: vos autem cognoscetis eum, quia apud vos manebit, et in vobis erit.
18. Non relinquam vos orphanos: veniam ad vos.
19. Adhuc modicum, et mundus me jam non videt. Vos autem videtis me: quia ego vivo, et vos vivetis.
20. In illo die vos cognoscetis quia ego sum in Patre meo, et vos in me, et ego in vobis.
21. Qui habet mandata mea, et servat ea: ille est qui diligit me. Qui autem diligit me, diligetur a Patre meo: et ego diligam eum, et manifestabo ei meipsum.
22. Dicit ei Judas, non ille Iscariotes: Domine, quid factum est, quia manifestaturus es nobis teipsum, et non mundo?
23. Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Si quis diligit me, sermonem meum servabit, et Pater meus diliget eum, et ad eum veniemus, et mansionem apud eum faciemus;
24. qui non diligit me, sermones meos non servat. Et sermonem, quem audistis, non est meus: sed ejus qui misit me, Patris.
25. Hæc locutus sum vobis apud vos manens.
26. Paraclitus autem Spiritus Sanctus, quem mittet Pater in nomine meo, ille vos docebit omnia, et suggeret vobis omnia quæcumque dixero vobis.
27. Pacem relinquo vobis, pacem meam do vobis: non quomodo mundus dat, ego do vobis. Non turbetur cor vestrum, neque formidet.
28. Audistis quia ego dixi vobis: Vado, et venio ad vos. Si diligeretis me, gauderetis utique, quia vado ad Patrem: quia Pater major me est.
29. Et nunc dixi vobis priusquam fiat: ut cum factum fuerit, credatis.
30. Jam non multa loquar vobiscum: venit enim princeps mundi hujus, et in me non habet quidquam.
31. Sed ut cognoscat mundus quia diligo Patrem, et sicut mandatum dedit mihi Pater, sic facio. Surgite, eamus hinc.
