If I go away and prepare a place for you, I will come back and receive you to Myself, so that where I am you may be also.

Whatever you ask in My name, I will do it so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

I have told you now before it happens so that when it does happen you may believe.

On the contrary, I am going away so that the world may know that I love the Father. Just as the Father commanded Me, so I do. "Get up; let's leave this place.

Every branch in Me that does not produce fruit He removes, and He prunes every branch that produces fruit so that it will produce more fruit.

Remain in Me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, so neither can you unless you remain in Me.

"I have spoken these things to you so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.

You did not choose Me, but I chose you. I appointed you that you should go out and produce fruit and that your fruit should remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.

But this happened so that the statement written in their scripture might be fulfilled: They hated Me for no reason.

But I have told you these things so that when their time comes you may remember I told them to you. I didn't tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.

Jesus knew they wanted to question Him, so He said to them, "Are you asking one another about what I said, ‘A little while and you will not see Me; again a little while and you will see Me'?

So you also have sorrow now. But I will see you again. Your hearts will rejoice, and no one will rob you of your joy.

Until now you have asked for nothing in My name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.

I have told you these things so that in Me you may have peace. You will have suffering in this world. Be courageous! I have conquered the world."

Jesus spoke these things, looked up to heaven, and said: Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son so that the Son may glorify You,

for You gave Him authority over all flesh; so He may give eternal life to all You have given Him.

I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, protect them by Your name that You have given Me, so that they may be one as We are one.

While I was with them, I was protecting them by Your name that You have given Me. I guarded them and not one of them is lost, except the son of destruction, so that the Scripture may be fulfilled.

Now I am coming to You, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have My joy completed in them.

I sanctify Myself for them, so they also may be sanctified by the truth.
