1 No se turbe el corazón de ustedes. Crean en Dios; crean también en mí.
1 “Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.
2 En la casa de mi Padre hay muchas habitaciones. Si no fuera así, yo se lo habría dicho. Voy a preparar lugar para ustedes.
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 Y si voy y les preparo lugar, vendré otra vez y los tomaré conmigo, para que donde yo esté, ustedes también estén.
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 Ustedes saben a dónde voy, y conocen el camino.
4 You know where I go, and you know the way.”
5 Tomás le dijo: Señor, no sabemos a dónde vas. ¿Cómo podemos conocer el camino?
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
6 Jesús le dijo: Yo soy el camino, la verdad y la vida. Nadie viene al Padre sino por mí.
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
7 Si me conocieran, también conocerían a mi Padre. Desde ahora lo conocen y lo han visto.
7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him and have seen him.”
8 Felipe le dijo: Señor, muéstranos al Padre, y eso nos basta.
8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”
9 Jesús le dijo: Felipe, ¿tanto tiempo he estado con ustedes, y todavía no me conoces? El que me ha visto a mí, ha visto al Padre. ¿Cómo dices tú: Muéstranos al Padre?
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 ¿No crees que yo estoy en el Padre, y el Padre está en mí? Las palabras que yo les digo no las hablo por mi propia cuenta; el Padre, que vive en mí, él hace las obras.
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 Créanme que yo estoy en el Padre, y el Padre está en mí; o si no, crean por las mismas obras.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or else believe me for the very works’ sake.
12 De cierto, de cierto les digo que el que cree en mí, las obras que yo hago también las hará; y hará obras mayores que estas, porque yo voy al Padre.
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 Todo lo que pidan en mi nombre, yo lo haré, para que el Padre sea glorificado en el Hijo.
13 Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 Si me piden algo en mi nombre, yo lo haré.
14 If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.
15 Si me aman, guarden mis mandamientos.
15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
16 Yo rogaré al Padre, y él les dará otro Ayudador, para que esté con ustedes para siempre:
16 I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever:
17 el Espíritu de verdad, a quien el mundo no puede recibir, porque no lo ve ni lo conoce. Pero ustedes lo conocen, porque permanece con ustedes y estará en ustedes.
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 No los dejaré huérfanos; vendré a ustedes.
18 I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.
19 Todavía un poco, y el mundo ya no me verá; pero ustedes me verán. Porque yo vivo, ustedes también vivirán.
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 En aquel día ustedes conocerán que yo estoy en mi Padre, y ustedes en mí, y yo en ustedes.
20 In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
21 El que tiene mis mandamientos y los guarda, ese es el que me ama. El que me ama será amado por mi Padre; y yo lo amaré y me manifestaré a él.
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, no el Iscariote, le dijo: Señor, ¿cómo es que te manifestarás a nosotros y no al mundo?
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 Jesús le respondió: Si alguien me ama, guardará mi palabra. Mi Padre lo amará, y vendremos a él y haremos nuestra morada con él.
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 El que no me ama no guarda mis palabras. Y la palabra que ustedes oyen no es mía, sino del Padre que me envió.
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 Estas cosas les he hablado mientras todavía estoy con ustedes.
25 “I have said these things to you while still living with you.
26 Pero el Ayudador, el Espíritu Santo, a quien el Padre enviará en mi nombre, él les enseñará todas las cosas y les recordará todo lo que yo les he dicho.
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 La paz les dejo; mi paz les doy. Yo no se la doy como el mundo la da. No se turbe su corazón ni tenga miedo.
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 Ustedes oyeron que les dije: Me voy, y vuelvo a ustedes. Si me amaran, se alegrarían de que voy al Padre, porque el Padre es mayor que yo.
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 Ahora se lo he dicho antes de que suceda, para que cuando suceda, crean.
29 Now I have told you before it happens so that when it happens, you may believe.
30 Ya no hablaré mucho con ustedes, porque viene el príncipe de este mundo. Él no tiene nada en mí.
30 I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.
31 Pero para que el mundo sepa que amo al Padre, hago tal como el Padre me mandó. Levántense, vámonos de aquí.
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.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Amongst other things, when the Holy Gospel was being read, ye heard what the Lord Jesus said, "I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life." Truth and life doth every man desire; but not every man doth find the way.

We have now the opportunity, dearly, beloved, as far as we can, of understanding the earlier words of the Lord from the later, and His previous statements by those that follow, in what you have heard was His answer to the question of the Apostle Thomas.

The Prophet said to the Jews, "Thou hadst the countenance of a harlot, thou wert shameless towards all men." ( Jer. iii. 3, LXX.) Now it seems fitting to use this expression not only against that city, but against all who shamelessly set their faces against the truth.

… He might come under the apprehension of man's senses, and having in Himself these six and twenty-four letters), then, becoming acquainted with Him, they ceased from their ignorance, and passed from death unto life, this name serving as their guide to the Father of truth. For the Father of all had resolved to put an end to ignorance, and to …
… strength sufficient to enjoy Thee; but I found it not until I embraced that "Mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus," "who is over all, God blessed for ever," calling unto me, and saying, "I am the way, the truth, and the life," and mingling that food which I was unable to receive with our flesh.
