LEAVE NO SURVIVORS
As Israel began to take the land on the east of Jordan, Og the king of Bashan and Sihon the king of Heshbon marched out against Israel. Israel engaged in battle with them and the LORD handed them over to Israel. Moses said, "At that time we took all his (Sihon's) towns and completely destroyed them - men women and children. We left no survivors." And about Og, king of Bashan, Moses said, "We struck them down, leaving no survivors."
The fact that they left no survivors may seem a little harsh, but God had warned them that leaving survivors would tempt them to leave the LORD their God and worship the idols of the people who lived there before. Later on as they conquered Canaan some of them relaxed their efforts and found the temptation just as God had said.
God has called each of us from a life where we served sin and had no regard for God to a life of complete devotion to him. To achieve this we need to clean out our old way of life and get rid of all the things that will tempt us away from God. It's no good just cleaning up and putting things away. We must do as Israel did and remove the temptations completely, leaving no survivors.

Contrast the reluctance of Israel to confront the giants thirty-eight years previously with the defeat of the Amorite Og, the last of the Rephaim (giants). There are some large fellows around, but one whose resting place (sarcophagus) was thirteen feet by six feet, is truly humongous. It is understandable, from a human perspective, how one can become fearful of such size and strength. But faith overcomes fear: The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident (Ps. 27:1-3).

1. Then we turned <6437>(8799), and went up <5927>(8799) the way <1870> to Bashan <1316>: and Og <5747> the king <4428> of Bashan <1316> came out <3318>(8799) against <7125>(8800) us, he and all his people <5971>, to battle <4421> at Edrei <154>.
2. And the LORD <3068> said <559>(8799) unto me, Fear <3372>(8799) him not: for I will deliver <5414>(8804) him, and all his people <5971>, and his land <776>, into thy hand <3027>; and thou shalt do <6213>(8804) unto him as thou didst <6213>(8804) unto Sihon <5511> king <4428> of the Amorites <567>, which dwelt <3427>(8802) at Heshbon <2809>.
3. So the LORD <3068> our God <430> delivered <5414>(8799) into our hands <3027> Og <5747> also, the king <4428> of Bashan <1316>, and all his people <5971>: and we smote <5221>(8686) him until none was left <7604>(8689) to him remaining <8300>.
4. And we took <3920>(8799) all his cities <5892> at that time <6256>, there was not a city <7151> which we took <3947>(8804) not from them, threescore <8346> cities <5892>, all the region <2256> of Argob <709>, the kingdom <4467> of Og <5747> in Bashan <1316>.
5. All these cities <5892> were fenced <1219>(8803) with high <1364> walls <2346>, gates <1817>, and bars <1280>; beside unwalled <6521> towns <5892> a great <3966> many <7235>(8687).
6. And we utterly destroyed <2763>(8686) them, as we did <6213>(8804) unto Sihon <5511> king <4428> of Heshbon <2809>, utterly destroying <2763>(8687) the men <4962>, women <802>, and children <2945>, of every city <5892>.
7. But all the cattle <929>, and the spoil <7998> of the cities <5892>, we took for a prey <962>(8804) to ourselves.
8. And we took <3947> <0> at that time <6256> out <3947>(8799) of the hand <3027> of the two <8147> kings <4428> of the Amorites <567> the land <776> that was on this side <5676> Jordan <3383>, from the river <5158> of Arnon <769> unto mount <2022> Hermon <2768>;
9. (Which Hermon <2768> the Sidonians <6722> call <7121>(8799) Sirion <8303>; and the Amorites <567> call <7121>(8799) it Shenir <8149>;)
10. All the cities <5892> of the plain <4334>, and all Gilead <1568>, and all Bashan <1316>, unto Salchah <5548> and Edrei <154>, cities <5892> of the kingdom <4467> of Og <5747> in Bashan <1316>.
11. For only Og <5747> king <4428> of Bashan <1316> remained <7604>(8738) of the remnant <3499> of giants <7497>; behold, his bedstead <6210> was a bedstead <6210> of iron <1270>; is it not <3808> in Rabbath <7237> of the children <1121> of Ammon <5983>? nine <8672> cubits <520> was the length <753> thereof, and four <702> cubits <520> the breadth <7341> of it, after the cubit <520> of a man <376>.
12. And this land <776>, which we possessed <3423>(8804) at that time <6256>, from Aroer <6177>, which is by the river <5158> Arnon <769>, and half <2677> mount <2022> Gilead <1568>, and the cities <5892> thereof, gave <5414>(8804) I unto the Reubenites <7206> and to the Gadites <1425>.
13. And the rest <3499> of Gilead <1568>, and all Bashan <1316>, being the kingdom <4467> of Og <5747>, gave <5414>(8804) I unto the half <2677> tribe <7626> of Manasseh <4519>; all the region <2256> of Argob <709>, with all Bashan <1316>, which <1931> was called <7121>(8735) the land <776> of giants <7497>.
14. Jair <2971> the son <1121> of Manasseh <4519> took <3947>(8804) all the country <2256> of Argob <709> unto the coasts <1366> of Geshuri <1651> and Maachathi <4602>; and called <7121>(8799) them after his own name <8034>, Bashanhavothjair <1316> <2334>, unto this day <3117>.
15. And I gave <5414>(8804) Gilead <1568> unto Machir <4353>.
16. And unto the Reubenites <7206> and unto the Gadites <1425> I gave <5414>(8804) from Gilead <1568> even unto the river <5158> Arnon <769> half <8432> the valley <5158>, and the border <1366> even unto the river <5158> Jabbok <2999>, which is the border <1366> of the children <1121> of Ammon <5983>;
17. The plain <6160> also, and Jordan <3383>, and the coast <1366> thereof, from Chinnereth <3672> even unto the sea <3220> of the plain <6160>, even the salt <4417> sea <3220>, under Ashdothpisgah <798>(8676) <794> eastward <4217>.
18. And I commanded <6680>(8762) you at that time <6256>, saying <559>(8800), The LORD <3068> your God <430> hath given <5414>(8804) you this land <776> to possess <3423>(8800) it: ye shall pass over <5674>(8799) armed <2502>(8803) before <6440> your brethren <251> the children <1121> of Israel <3478>, all that are meet <1121> for the war <2428>.
19. But your wives <802>, and your little ones <2945>, and your cattle <4735>, (for I know <3045>(8804) that ye have much <7227> cattle <4735>,) shall abide <3427>(8799) in your cities <5892> which I have given <5414>(8804) you;
20. Until the LORD <3068> have given rest <5117>(8686) unto your brethren <251>, as well as unto you, and until they also possess <3423>(8804) the land <776> which the LORD <3068> your God <430> hath given <5414>(8802) them beyond <5676> Jordan <3383>: and then shall ye return <7725>(8804) every man <376> unto his possession <3425>, which I have given <5414>(8804) you.
21. And I commanded <6680>(8765) Joshua <3091> at that time <6256>, saying <559>(8800), Thine eyes <5869> have seen <7200>(8802) all that the LORD <3068> your God <430> hath done <6213>(8804) unto these two <8147> kings <4428>: so shall the LORD <3068> do <6213>(8799) unto all the kingdoms <4467> whither thou passest <5674>(8802).
22. Ye shall not fear <3372>(8799) them: for the LORD <3068> your God <430> he shall fight <3898>(8737) for you.
23. And I besought <2603>(8691) the LORD <3068> at that time <6256>, saying <559>(8800),
24. O Lord <136> GOD <3069>, thou hast begun <2490>(8689) to shew <7200>(8687) thy servant <5650> thy greatness <1433>, and thy mighty <2389> hand <3027>: for what God <410> is there in heaven <8064> or in earth <776>, that can do <6213>(8799) according to thy works <4639>, and according to thy might <1369>?
25. I pray thee, let me go over <5674>(8799), and see <7200>(8799) the good <2896> land <776> that is beyond <5676> Jordan <3383>, that goodly <2896> mountain <2022>, and Lebanon <3844>.
26. But the LORD <3068> was wroth <5674>(8691) with me for your sakes, and would not hear <8085>(8804) me: and the LORD <3068> said <559>(8799) unto me, Let it suffice <7227> thee; speak <1696>(8763) no more <3254>(8686) unto me of this matter <1697>.
27. Get thee up <5927>(8798) into the top <7218> of Pisgah <6449>, and lift up <5375>(8798) thine eyes <5869> westward <3220>, and northward <6828>, and southward <8486>, and eastward <4217>, and behold <7200>(8798) it with thine eyes <5869>: for thou shalt not go over <5674>(8799) this Jordan <3383>.
28. But charge <6680>(8761) Joshua <3091>, and encourage <2388>(8761) him, and strengthen <553>(8761) him: for he shall go over <5674>(8799) before <6440> this people <5971>, and he shall cause them to inherit <5157>(8686) the land <776> which thou shalt see <7200>(8799).
29. So we abode <3427>(8799) in the valley <1516> over against <4136> Bethpeor <1047>.
Notes that are not verse specific
v.5 - drawn from Ps.18:30 is repeated here to remind us that it is the purity of God's word that gives it its power to protect. We are kept safe by the very nature of God's promises - the fact that what he has spoken He will have to perform, because He doesn't lie. This is purity of purpose. This is what gives us protection.
Peter [UK] Comment added in 2002 Reply to Peter
Agur means collector, while Jaker means obedience. Outside of Prov. 30, nothing is ever mentioned about an individual named Agur. This leaves many to believe, like the ancient rabbis, that Agur is a reference to Solomon. Here Solomon, the son of obedience (to Yahweh), is a collector of wise sayings, just as he is the possibly designated the preacher of Ecclesiastes (Ecc 1:1).

29:11,20 It is all too easy to “speak our minds” however the wisdom of God seen here counsels care in the things we say. Once spoken words cannot be retracted. The damage is done and no amount of apologies can change what we have said.
Peter Forbes [Mountsorrel (UK)] Comment added in 2014 Reply to Peter
"Every word of God is pure;
He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.
Do not add to His words,
Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar."
The word "pure" in this context means complete and unimprovable. Pure Gold can be added to with other metals but it decreases its value. Pure alcohol can be watered down, but never increased in strength. The word of God can only go from truth to error when we add to it.

30. A lion <3918> which is strongest <1368> among beasts <929>, and turneth not away <7725>(8799) for <6440> any;
31. A greyhound <4975> <2223>; an he goat <8495> also <176>; and a king <4428>, against whom there is no rising up <510>.
32. If thou hast done foolishly <5034>(8804) in lifting up <5375>(8692) thyself, or if thou hast thought evil <2161>(8804), lay thine hand <3027> upon thy mouth <6310>.
33. Surely the churning <4330> of milk <2461> bringeth forth <3318>(8686) butter <2529>, and the wringing <4330> of the nose <639> bringeth forth <3318>(8686) blood <1818>: so the forcing <4330> of wrath <639> bringeth forth <3318>(8686) strife <7379>.
Notes that are not verse specific
AS A SERVANT
Jesus. Our Messiah, our Saviour, our Lord, our Master, our Shepherd. He is the King of kings and Lord of lords, the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, and the Son of God. Jesus is so much greater than any one of us no matter who we are or what we do. Yet if we had been in that upper room in the evening when Jesus and his disciples had the Passover meal and the last supper, this great man would have washed our feet too. What a humbling experience that must have been to the disciples who were there – especially as they had been arguing about who was going to be the greatest in the kingdom. Now, here was their Lord washing their feet like a servant when they were the ones who should have been washing his feet.
The answer to their argument about who was to be the greatest in the kingdom was Jesus. He would be the greatest in the kingdom. Yet he came to them as a servant, as an example to all who want to be great. He came to serve and we should serve each other too.
Jesus said, "Now that I, your Lord and teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you… Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them."
So just as Jesus came as a servant, let us become servants to each other.

WHATEVER YOU ASK
Just how powerful is the power of prayer? Jesus told his disciples to believe in him, "or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves." This gets us to thinking about the miracles that Jesus did: Turning water into wine, raising the dead, healing the deaf, blind and lame, feeding the multitudes and many more. If we had been there and seen them, we would have been astounded and they would have challenged us to believe in him, just as they challenged the Jews. Amazing miracles.
Then Jesus continued, "I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it."
This is an incredible promise! It is a promise of power that, when it is used to the glory of the Father and the Son, is far greater than we could ever imagine. That power has been promised to you and me. Jesus has promised it. Do we believe his promise? Do we believe it enough to step out and ask in faith for what we need to show forth the glory of God?

13:2,27 Whoever or whatever the devil and satan is in this account, we know that Judas was fully responsible for his actions. But if the devil or satan is a fallen angel tempter who infiltrated Judas' mind, why is Judas held entirely responsible for his actions, such that "It would have been better for him if he had never been born" (Mark 14:21) ? This would be a case of blaming the victim (Judas), and letting the perpetrator (satan) get off without censure or punishment.

2. And <2532> supper <1173> being ended <1096>(5637), the devil <1228> having now <2235> put <906>(5761) into <1519> the heart <2588> of Judas <2455> Iscariot <2469>, Simon's <4613> son, to <2443> betray <3860>(5632) him <846>;
3. Jesus <2424> knowing <1492>(5761) that <3754> the Father <3962> had given <1325>(5758) all things <3956> into <1519> his <846> hands <5495>, and <2532> that <3754> he was come <1831>(5627) from <575> God <2316>, and <2532> went <5217>(5719) to <4314> God <2316>;
4. He riseth <1453>(5743) from <1537> supper <1173>, and <2532> laid aside <5087>(5719) his <846> garments <2440>; and <2532> took <2983>(5631) a towel <3012>, and girded <1241>(5656) himself <1438>.
5. After that <1534> he poureth <906>(5719) water <5204> into <1519> a bason <3537>, and <2532> began <756>(5662) to wash <3538>(5721) the disciples <3101>' feet <4228>, and <2532> to wipe <1591>(5721) them with the towel <3012> wherewith <3739> he was <2258>(5713) girded <1241>(5772).
6. Then <3767> cometh he <2064>(5736) to <4314> Simon <4613> Peter <4074>: and <2532> Peter <1565> saith <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Lord <2962>, dost <3538> <0> thou <4771> wash <3538>(5719) my <3450> feet <4228>?
7. Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662) and <2532> said <2036>(5627) unto him <846>, What <3739> I <1473> do <4160>(5719) thou <4771> knowest <1492>(5758) not <3756> now <737>; but <1161> thou shalt know <1097>(5695) hereafter <3326> <5023>.
8. Peter <4074> saith <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Thou shalt <3538> <0> never <1519> <165> <3364> wash <3538>(5661) my <3450> feet <4228>. Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662) him <846>, If <3362> <0> I wash <3538>(5661) thee <4571> not <3362>, thou hast <2192>(5719) no <3756> part <3313> with <3326> me <1700>.
9. Simon <4613> Peter <4074> saith <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Lord <2962>, not <3361> my <3450> feet <4228> only <3440>, but <235> also <2532> my hands <5495> and <2532> my head <2776>.
10. Jesus <2424> saith <3004>(5719) to him <846>, He that is washed <3068>(5772) needeth <5532> not <3756> <2192>(5719) save <2228> to wash <3538>(5670) his feet <4228>, but <235> is <2076>(5748) clean <2513> every whit <3650>: and <2532> ye <5210> are <2075>(5748) clean <2513>, but <235> not <3780> all <3956>.
11. For <1063> he knew <1492>(5715) who <3588> should betray <3860>(5723) him <846>; therefore <5124> <1223> said he <2036>(5627), Ye are <2075>(5748) not <3780> all <3956> clean <2513>.
12. So <3767> after <3753> he had washed <3538>(5656) their <846> feet <4228>, and <2532> had taken <2983>(5627) his <848> garments <2440>, and was set down <377>(5631) again <3825>, he said <2036>(5627) unto them <846>, Know ye <1097>(5719) what <5101> I have done <4160>(5758) to you <5213>?
13. Ye <5210> call <5455>(5719) me <3165> Master <1320> and <2532> Lord <2962>: and <2532> ye say <3004>(5719) well <2573>; for <1063> so I am <1510>(5748).
14. If <1487> I <1473> then <3767>, your Lord <2962> and <2532> Master <1320>, have washed <3538>(5656) your <5216> feet <4228>; ye <5210> also <2532> ought <3784>(5719) to wash <3538>(5721) one another's <240> feet <4228>.
15. For <1063> I have given <1325>(5656) you <5213> an example <5262>, that <2443> ye <5210> should do <4160>(5725) as <2531> <2532> I <1473> have done <4160>(5656) to you <5213>.
16. Verily <281>, verily <281>, I say <3004>(5719) unto you <5213>, The servant <1401> is <2076>(5748) not <3756> greater than <3187> his <848> lord <2962>; neither <3761> he that is sent <652> greater than <3187> he that sent <3992>(5660) him <846>.
17. If <1487> ye know <1492>(5758) these things <5023>, happy <3107> are ye <2075>(5748) if <1437> ye do <4160>(5725) them <846>.
18. I speak <3004>(5719) not <3756> of <4012> you <5216> all <3956>: I <1473> know <1492>(5758) whom <3739> I have chosen <1586>(5668): but <235> that <2443> the scripture <1124> may be fulfilled <4137>(5686), He that eateth <5176>(5723) bread <740> with <3326> me <1700> hath lifted up <1869>(5656) his <848> heel <4418> against <1909> me <1691>.
19. Now <575> <737> I tell <3004>(5719) you <5213> before <4253> it come <1096>(5635), that <2443>, when <3752> it is come to pass <1096>(5638), ye may believe <4100>(5661) that <3754> I <1473> am <1510>(5748) he.
20. Verily <281>, verily <281>, I say <3004>(5719) unto you <5213>, He that receiveth <2983>(5723) whomsoever <1437> <5100> I send <3992>(5661) receiveth <2983>(5719) me <1691>; and <1161> he that receiveth <2983>(5723) me <1691> receiveth <2983>(5719) him that sent <3992>(5660) me <3165>.
21. When Jesus <2424> had <2036> <0> thus <5023> said <2036>(5631), he was troubled <5015>(5681) in spirit <4151>, and <2532> testified <3140>(5656), and <2532> said <2036>(5627), Verily <281>, verily <281>, I say <3004>(5719) unto you <5213>, that <3754> one <1520> of <1537> you <5216> shall betray <3860>(5692) me <3165>.
22. Then <3767> the disciples <3101> looked <991>(5707) one on another <1519> <240>, doubting <639>(5734) of <4012> whom <5101> he spake <3004>(5719).
23. Now <1161> there was <2258>(5713) leaning <345>(5740) on <1722> Jesus <2424>' bosom <2859> one <1520> of his <846> disciples <3101>, whom <3739> Jesus <2424> loved <25>(5707).
24. Simon <4613> Peter <4074> therefore <3767> beckoned <3506>(5719) to him <5129>, that he should ask <4441>(5635) who <5101> it should <302> be <1498>(5751) of <4012> whom <3739> he spake <3004>(5719).
25. He <1565> then <1161> lying on <1968>(5631) <1909> Jesus <2424>' breast <4738> saith <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Lord <2962>, who <5101> is it <2076>(5748)?
26. Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5736), He <1565> it is <2076>(5748), to whom <3739> I shall give <1929>(5692) a sop <5596>, when I <1473> have dipped <911>(5660) it. And <2532> when he had dipped <1686>(5660) the sop <5596>, he gave <1325>(5719) it to Judas <2455> Iscariot <2469>, the son of Simon <4613>.
27. And <2532> after <3326> the sop <5596> <5119> Satan <4567> entered <1525>(5627) into <1519> him <1565>. Then <3767> said <3004>(5719) Jesus <2424> unto him <846>, That thou doest <4160>(5719), do <4160>(5657) quickly <5032>.
28. Now <1161> no man <3762> at the table <345>(5740) knew <1097>(5627) for what <4314> intent <5101> he spake <2036>(5627) this <5124> unto him <846>.
29. For <1063> some <5100> of them thought <1380>(5707), because <1893> Judas <2455> had <2192>(5707) the bag <1101>, that <3754> Jesus <2424> had said <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Buy <59>(5657) those things that <3739> we have <2192>(5719) need of <5532> against <1519> the feast <1859>; or <2228>, that <2443> he should give <1325>(5632) something <5100> to the poor <4434>.
30. He <1565> then <3767> having received <2983>(5631) the sop <5596> went <1831> <0> immediately <2112> out <1831>(5627): and <1161> it was <2258>(5713) night <3571>.
31. Therefore <3767>, when <3753> he was gone out <1831>(5627), Jesus <2424> said <3004>(5719), Now <3568> is <1392> <0> the Son <5207> of man <444> glorified <1392>(5681), and <2532> God <2316> is glorified <1392>(5681) in <1722> him <846>.
32. If <1487> God <2316> be glorified <1392>(5681) in <1722> him <846>, God <2316> shall <1392> <0> also <2532> glorify <1392>(5692) him <846> in <1722> himself <1438>, and <2532> shall <1392> <0> straightway <2117> glorify <1392>(5692) him <846>.
33. Little children <5040>, yet <2089> a little while <3397> I am <1510>(5748) with <3326> you <5216>. Ye shall seek <2212>(5692) me <3165>: and <2532> as <2531> I said <2036>(5627) unto the Jews <2453>, <3754> Whither <3699> I <1473> go <5217>(5719), ye <5210> cannot <3756> <1410>(5736) come <2064>(5629); so <2532> now <737> I say <3004>(5719) to you <5213>.
34. A new <2537> commandment <1785> I give <1325>(5719) unto you <5213>, That <2443> ye love <25>(5725) one another <240>; as <2531> I have loved <25>(5656) you <5209>, that <2443> ye <5210> also <2532> love <25>(5725) one another <240>.
35. By <1722> this <5129> shall <1097> <0> all <3956> men know <1097>(5695) that <3754> ye are <2075>(5748) my <1699> disciples <3101>, if <1437> ye have <2192>(5725) love <26> one to another <1722> <240>.
36. Simon <4613> Peter <4074> said <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Lord <2962>, whither <4226> goest <5217>(5719) thou? Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662) him <846>, Whither <3699> I go <5217>(5719), thou canst <1410>(5736) not <3756> follow <190>(5658) me <3427> now <3568>; but <1161> thou shalt follow <190>(5692) me <3427> afterwards <5305>.
37. Peter <4074> said <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Lord <2962>, why <1302> cannot <3756> <1410>(5736) I follow <190>(5658) thee <4671> now <737>? I will lay down <5087>(5692) my <3450> life <5590> for <5228> thy sake <4675>.
38. Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662) him <846>, Wilt thou lay down <5087>(5692) thy <4675> life <5590> for <5228> my sake <1700>? Verily <281>, verily <281>, I say <3004>(5719) unto thee <4671>, The cock <220> shall <5455> <0> not <3364> crow <5455>(5692), till <2193> <3739> thou hast denied <533>(5695) me <3165> thrice <5151>.
1. Let <5015> <0> not <3361> your <5216> heart <2588> be troubled <5015>(5744): ye believe <4100>(5720) in <1519> God <2316>, believe <4100>(5719)(5720) also <2532> in <1519> me <1691>.
2. In <1722> my <3450> Father's <3962> house <3614> are <1526>(5748) many <4183> mansions <3438>: if it were not <1490> so, I would have told <302> <2036>(5627) you <5213>. I go <4198>(5736) to prepare <2090>(5658) a place <5117> for you <5213>.
3. And <2532> if <1437> I go <4198>(5680) and <2532> prepare <2090>(5661) a place <5117> for you <5213>, I will come <2064>(5736) again <3825>, and <2532> receive <3880>(5695) you <5209> unto <4314> myself <1683>; that <2443> where <3699> I <1473> am <1510>(5748), there ye <5210> may be <5600>(5753) also <2532>.
4. And <2532> whither <3699> I <1473> go <5217>(5719) ye know <1492>(5758), and <2532> the way <3598> ye know <1492>(5758).
5. Thomas <2381> saith <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Lord <2962>, we know <1492>(5758) not <3756> whither <4226> thou goest <5217>(5719); and <2532> how <4459> can we <1410>(5736) know <1492>(5760) the way <3598>?
6. Jesus <2424> saith <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, I <1473> am <1510>(5748) the way <3598>, <2532> the truth <225>, and <2532> the life <2222>: no man <3762> cometh <2064>(5736) unto <4314> the Father <3962>, but <1508> by <1223> me <1700>.
7. If <1487> ye had known <1097>(5715) me <3165>, <302> ye should have known <1097>(5715) my <3450> Father <3962> also <2532>: and <2532> from <575> henceforth <737> ye know <1097>(5719) him <846>, and <2532> have seen <3708>(5758) him <846>.
8. Philip <5376> saith <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Lord <2962>, shew <1166>(5657) us <2254> the Father <3962>, and <2532> it sufficeth <714>(5719) us <2254>.
9. Jesus <2424> saith <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Have I been <1510>(5748) so long <5118> time <5550> with <3326> you <5216>, and yet <2532> hast thou <1097> <0> not <3756> known <1097>(5758) me <3165>, Philip <5376>? he that hath seen <3708>(5761) me <1691> hath seen <3708>(5758) the Father <3962>; and <2532> how <4459> sayest <3004>(5719) thou <4771> then, Shew <1166>(5657) us <2254> the Father <3962>?
10. Believest thou <4100>(5719) not <3756> that <3754> I <1473> am <2076>(5748) in <1722> the Father <3962>, and <2532> the Father <3962> in <1722> me <1698>? the words <4487> that <3739> I <1473> speak <2980>(5719) unto you <5213> I speak <2980>(5719) not <3756> of <575> myself <1683>: but <1161> the Father <3962> that dwelleth <3306>(5723) in <1722> me <1698>, he <846> doeth <4160>(5719) the works <2041>.
11. Believe <4100>(5720) me <3427> that <3754> I <1473> am in <1722> the Father <3962>, and <2532> the Father <3962> in <1722> me <1698>: or else <1490> believe <4100>(5720) me <3427> for <1223> the very <846> <0> works <2041>' sake <846>.
12. Verily <281>, verily <281>, I say <3004>(5719) unto you <5213>, He that believeth <4100>(5723) on <1519> me <1691>, the works <2041> that I <1473> do <4160>(5719) shall he do <4160>(5692) also <2548>; and <2532> greater works than <3187> these <5130> shall he do <4160>(5692); because <3754> I <1473> go <4198>(5736) unto <4314> my <3450> Father <3962>.
13. And <2532> whatsoever <3748> <302> ye shall ask <154>(5661) in <1722> my <3450> name <3686>, that <5124> will I do <4160>(5692), that <2443> the Father <3962> may be glorified <1392>(5686) in <1722> the Son <5207>.
14. If <1437> ye shall ask <154>(5661) any thing <5100> in <1722> my <3450> name <3686>, I <1473> will do <4160>(5692) it.
15. If <1437> ye love <25>(5725) me <3165>, keep <5083>(5657) my <1699> commandments <1785>.
16. And <2532> I <1473> will pray <2065>(5692) the Father <3962>, and <2532> he shall give <1325>(5692) you <5213> another <243> Comforter <3875>, that <2443> he may abide <3306>(5725) with <3326> you <5216> for <1519> ever <165>;
17. Even the Spirit <4151> of truth <225>; whom <3739> the world <2889> cannot <3756> <1410>(5736) receive <2983>(5629), because <3754> it seeth <2334>(5719) him <846> not <3756>, neither <3761> knoweth <1097>(5719) him <846>: but <1161> ye <5210> know <1097>(5719) him <846>; for <3754> he dwelleth <3306>(5719) with <3844> you <5213>, and <2532> shall be <2071>(5704) in <1722> you <5213>.
18. I will <863> <0> not <3756> leave <863>(5692) you <5209> comfortless <3737>: I will come <2064>(5736) to <4314> you <5209>.
19. Yet <2089> a little while <3397>, and <2532> the world <2889> seeth <2334>(5719) me <3165> no <3765> more <2089>; but <1161> ye <5210> see <2334>(5719) me <3165>: because <3754> I <1473> live <2198>(5719), ye <5210> shall live <2198>(5695) also <2532>.
20. At <1722> that <1565> day <2250> ye <5210> shall know <1097>(5695) that <3754> I <1473> am in <1722> my <3450> Father <3962>, and <2532> ye <5210> in <1722> me <1698>, and I <2504> in <1722> you <5213>.
21. He that hath <2192>(5723) my <3450> commandments <1785>, and <2532> keepeth <5083>(5723) them <846>, he <1565> it is <2076>(5748) that loveth <25>(5723) me <3165>: and <1161> he that loveth <25>(5723) me <3165> shall be loved <25>(5701) of <5259> my <3450> Father <3962>, and <2532> I <1473> will love <25>(5692) him <846>, and <2532> will manifest <1718>(5692) myself <1683> to him <846>.
22. Judas <2455> saith <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, not <3756> Iscariot <2469>, Lord <2962>, how <5101> is it <1096>(5754) that <3754> thou wilt <3195>(5719) manifest <1718>(5721) thyself <4572> unto us <2254>, and <2532> not <3780> unto the world <2889>?
23. Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662) and <2532> said <2036>(5627) unto him <846>, If <1437> a man <5100> love <25>(5725) me <3165>, he will keep <5083>(5692) my <3450> words <3056>: and <2532> my <3450> Father <3962> will love <25>(5692) him <846>, and <2532> we will come <2064>(5695) unto <4314> him <846>, and <2532> make <4160>(5692) our abode <3438> with <3844> him <846>.
24. He that loveth <25>(5723) me <3165> not <3361> keepeth <5083>(5719) not <3756> my <3450> sayings <3056>: and <2532> the word <3056> which <3739> ye hear <191>(5719) is <2076>(5748) not <3756> mine <1699>, but <235> the Father's <3962> which <3588> sent <3992>(5660) me <3165>.
25. These things <5023> have I spoken <2980>(5758) unto you <5213>, being yet present <3306>(5723) with <3844> you <5213>.
26. But <1161> the Comforter <3875>, which is the Holy <40> Ghost <4151>, whom <3739> the Father <3962> will send <3992>(5692) in <1722> my <3450> name <3686>, he <1565> shall teach <1321>(5692) you <5209> all things <3956>, and <2532> bring <5279> <0> all things <3956> to <5279> <0> your <5209> remembrance <5279>(5692), whatsoever <3739> I have said <2036>(5627) unto you <5213>.
27. Peace <1515> I leave <863>(5719) with you <5213>, my <1699> peace <1515> I give <1325>(5719) unto you <5213>: not <3756> as <2531> the world <2889> giveth <1325>(5719), give <1325>(5719) I <1473> unto you <5213>. Let <5015> <0> not <3361> your <5216> heart <2588> be troubled <5015>(5744), neither <3366> let it be afraid <1168>(5720).
28. Ye have heard <191>(5656) how <3754> I <1473> said <2036>(5627) unto you <5213>, I go away <5217>(5719), and <2532> come <2064>(5736) again unto <4314> you <5209>. If <1487> ye loved <25>(5707) me <3165>, <302> ye would rejoice <5463>(5644), because <3754> I said <2036>(5627), I go <4198>(5736) unto <4314> the Father <3962>: for <3754> my <3450> Father <3962> is <2076>(5748) greater than <3187> I <3450>.
29. And <2532> now <3568> I have told <2046>(5758) you <5213> before <4250> it come to pass <1096>(5635), that <2443>, when <3752> it is come to pass <1096>(5638), ye might believe <4100>(5661).
30. Hereafter <2089> <3765> <0> I will <2980> <0> not <3765> talk <2980>(5692) much <4183> with <3326> you <5216>: for <1063> the prince <758> of this <5127> world <2889> cometh <2064>(5736), and <2532> hath <2192>(5719) <3756> nothing <3762> in <1722> me <1698>.
31. But <235> that <2443> the world <2889> may know <1097>(5632) that <3754> I love <25>(5719) the Father <3962>; and <2532> as <2531> the Father <3962> gave <1781> <0> me <3427> commandment <1781>(5662), even so <3779> I do <4160>(5719). Arise <1453>(5728), let us go <71>(5725) hence <1782>.
