1 Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me.
1 NO se turbe vuestro corazón: creéis en Dios, creed también en mí.
2 In my Father’s house there are many mansions. If not, I would have told you: because I go to prepare a place for you.
2 En la casa de mi Padre muchas moradas hay: de otra manera os [lo] hubiera dicho: voy, pues, á preparar lugar para vosotros.
3 And if I shall go, and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and will take you to myself; that where I am, you also may be.
3 Y si me fuere, y os aparejare lugar, vendré otra vez, y os tomaré á mí mismo: para que donde yo estoy, vosotros también estéis.
4 And whither I go you know, and the way you know.
4 Y sabéis á dónde yo voy; y sabéis el camino.
5 Thomas saith to him: Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
5 Dícele Tomás: Señor, no sabemos á dónde vas: ¿cómo, pues, podemos saber el camino?
6 Jesus saith to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father, but by me.
6 Jesús le dice: Yo soy el camino, y la verdad, y la vida: nadie viene al Padre, sino por mí.
7 If you had known me, you would without doubt have known my Father also: and from henceforth you shall know him, and you have seen him.
7 Si me conocieseis, también á mi Padre conocierais: y desde ahora le conocéis, y le habéis visto.
8 Philip saith to him: Lord, shew us the Father, and it is enough for us.
8 Dícele Felipe: Señor, muéstranos el Padre, y nos basta.
9 Jesus saith to him: Have I been so long a time with you; and have you not known me? Philip, he that seeth me seeth the Father also. How sayest thou, Shew us the Father?
9 Jesús le dice: ¿Tanto tiempo ha que estoy con vosotros, y no me has conocido, Felipe? El que me ha visto, ha visto al Padre; ¿cómo, pues, dices tú: Muéstranos el Padre?
10 Do you not believe, that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I speak to you, I speak not of myself. But the Father who abideth in me, he doth the works.
10 ¿No crees que yo soy en el Padre, y el Padre en mí? Las palabras que yo os hablo, no [las] hablo de mí mismo: mas el Padre que está en mí, él hace las obras.
11 Believe you not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me?
11 Creedme que yo soy en el Padre, y el Padre en mí: de otra manera, creedme por las mismas obras.
12 Otherwise believe for the very works’ sake. Amen, amen I say to you, he that believeth in me, the works that I do, he also shall do; and greater than these shall he do.
12 De cierto, de cierto os digo: El que en mí cree, las obras que yo hago también él [las] hará; y mayores que éstas hará; porque yo voy al Padre.
13 Because I go to the Father: and whatsoever you shall ask the Father in my name, that will I do: that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
13 Y todo lo que pidiereis al Padre en mi nombre, esto haré, para que el Padre sea glorificado en el Hijo.
14 If you shall ask me any thing in my name, that I will do.
14 Si algo pidiereis en mi nombre, yo lo haré.
15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
15 Si me amáis, guardad mis mandamientos;
16 And I will ask the Father, and he shall give you another Paraclete, that he may abide with you for ever.
16 Y yo rogaré al Padre, y os dará otro Consolador, para que esté con vosotros para siempre:
17 The spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, nor knoweth him: but you shall know him; because he shall abide with you, and shall be in you.
17 Al Espíritu de verdad, al cual el mundo no puede recibir, porque no le ve, ni le conoce: mas vosotros le conocéis; porque está con vosotros, y será en vosotros.
18 I will not leave you orphans, I will come to you.
18 No os dejaré huérfanos: vendré á vosotros.
19 Yet a little while: and the world seeth me no more. But you see me: because I live, and you shall live.
19 Aun un poquito, y el mundo no me verá más; empero vosotros me veréis; porque yo vivo, y vosotros también viviréis.
20 In that day you shall know, that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
20 En aquel día vosotros conoceréis que yo estoy en mi Padre, y vosotros en mí, y yo en vosotros.
21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them; he it is that loveth me. And he that loveth me, shall be loved of my Father: and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
21 El que tiene mis mandamientos, y los guarda, aquél es el que me ama; y el que me ama, será amado de mi Padre, y yo le amaré, y me manifestaré á él.
22 Judas saith to him, not the Iscariot: Lord, how is it, that thou wilt manifest thyself to us, and not to the world?
22 Dícele Judas, no el Iscariote: Señor, ¿qué hay porque te hayas de manifestar á nosotros, y no al mundo?
23 Jesus answered, and said to him: If any one love me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and will make our abode with him.
23 Respondió Jesús, y díjole: El que me ama, mi palabra guardará; y mi Padre le amará, y vendremos á él, y haremos con él morada.
24 He that loveth me not, keepeth not my words. And the word which you have heard, is not mine; but the Father’s who sent me.
24 El que no me ama, no guarda mis palabras: y la palabra que habéis oído, no es mía, sino del Padre que me envió.
25 These things have I spoken to you, abiding with you.
25 Estas cosas os he hablado estando con vosotros.
26 But the Paraclete, the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and bring all things to your mind, whatsoever I shall have said to you.
26 Mas el Consolador, el Espíritu Santo, al cual el Padre enviará en mi nombre, él os enseñará todas las cosas, y os recordará todas las cosas que os he dicho.
27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, do I give unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid.
27 La paz os dejo, mi paz os doy: no como el mundo [la] da, yo os [la] doy. No se turbe vuestro corazón, ni tenga miedo.
28 You have heard that I said to you: I go away, and I come unto you. If you loved me, you would indeed be glad, because I go to the Father: for the Father is greater than I.
28 Habéis oído cómo yo os he dicho: Voy, y vengo á vosotros. Si me amaseis, ciertamente os gozaríais, porque he dicho que voy al Padre: porque el Padre mayor es que yo.
29 And now I have told you before it comes to pass: that when it shall come to pass, you may believe.
29 Y ahora os lo he dicho antes que se haga; para que cuando se hiciere, creáis.
30 I will not now speak many things with you. For the prince of this world cometh, and in me he hath not any thing.
30 Ya no hablaré mucho con vosotros: porque viene el príncipe de este mundo; mas no tiene nada en mí.
31 But that the world may know, that I love the Father: and as the Father hath given me commandment, so do I: Arise, let us go hence.
31 Empero para que conozca el mundo que amo al Padre, y como el Padre me dió el mandamiento, así hago. Levantaos, vamos de aquí.

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.
