013:026 "It is the one," answered Jesus, "for whom I shall dip this piece of bread and to whom I shall give it." Accordingly He dipped the piece of bread, and took it and gave it to Judas, the son of the Iscariot Simon.

013:027 Then, after Judas had received the piece of bread, Satan entered into him. "Lose no time about it," said Jesus to him.

013:028 But why He said this no one else at the table understood.

013:029 Some, however, supposed that because Judas had the money-box Jesus meant, "Buy what we require for the Festival," or that he should give something to the poor.

013:030 So Judas took the piece of bread and immediately went out. And it was night.

013:031 So when he was gone out, Jesus said, "Now is the Son of Man glorified, and God is glorified in Him.

013:032 Moreover God will glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify Him without delay.

013:033 Dear children, I am still with you a little longer. You will seek me, but, as I said to the Jews, `Where I am going you cannot come,' so for the present I say to you.

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.
