Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, John
Weymouth, Richard Francis
Bible. John
013:034 A new commandment I give you, to love one another; that as I
have loved you, you also may love one another.
013:035 It is by this that every one will know that you are my disciples--
if you love one another."
013:036 "Master," inquired Simon Peter, "where are you going?"
"Where I am going," replied Jesus, "you cannot be my follower now,
but you shall be later."
013:037 "Master," asked Peter again, "why cannot I follow you now?
I will lay down my life on your behalf.
013:038 "You say you will lay down your life on my behalf!" said Jesus;
"in most solemn truth I tell you that the cock will not crow
before you have three times disowned me."
014:001 "Let not your hearts be troubled. Trust in God:
trust in me also.
014:002 In my Father's house there are many resting-places. Were
it otherwise, I would have told you; for I am going to make
ready a place for you.
014:003 And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will return
and take you to be with me, that where I am you also may be.
014:004 And where I am going, you all know the way."
014:005 "Master," said Thomas, "we do not know where you are going.
In what sense do we know the way?"
014:006 "I am the Way," replied Jesus, "and the Truth and the Life.
No one comes to the Father except through me.
014:007 If you--all of you--knew me, you would fully know my Father also.
From this time forward you know Him and have seen Him."
014:008 "Master," said Philip, "cause us to see the Father:
that is all we need."
014:009 "Have I been so long among you," Jesus answered, "and yet you,
Philip, do not know me? He who has seen me has seen the Father.
How can *you* ask me, `Cause us to see the Father'?
014:010 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and that the Father
is in me? The things that I tell you all I do not speak on
my own authority: but the Father dwelling within me carries
on His own work.
014:011 Believe me, all of you, that I am in the Father and that the Father
is in me; or at any rate, believe me because of what I do.
014:012 In most solemn truth I tell you that he who trusts in me--
the things which I do he shall do also; and greater things
than these he shall do, because I am going to the Father.
014:013 And whatever any of you ask in my name, I will do, in order
that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
014:014 If you make any request of me in my name, I will do it.
014:015 "If you love me, you will obey my commandments.
014:016 And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate
to be for ever with you--the Spirit of truth.
014:017 That Spirit the world cannot receive, because it does not see
Him or know Him. You know Him, because He remains by your
side and is in you.
