14:18 “I will not abandon ⁶  you as orphans, ⁷  I will come to you. ⁸  14:19 In a little while ⁹  the world will not see me any longer, but you will see me; because I live, you will live too. 14:20 You will know at that time ¹⁰  that I am in my Father and you are in me and I am in you. 14:21 The person who has my commandments and obeys ¹¹  them is the one who loves me. ¹²  The one ¹³  who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will reveal ¹⁴  myself to him.”

14:22 “Lord,” Judas (not Judas Iscariot) ¹⁵  said, ¹⁶  “what has happened that you are going to reveal ¹⁷  yourself to us and not to the world?” 14:23 Jesus replied, ¹⁸  “If anyone loves me, he will obey ¹⁹  my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and take up residence with him. ²⁰  14:24 The person who does not love me does not obey ²¹  my words. And the word ²²  you hear is not mine, but the Father’s who sent me.

14:25 “I have spoken these things while staying ²³  with you. 14:26 But the Advocate, ²⁴  the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you ²⁵  everything, ²⁶  and will cause you to remember everything ²⁷  I said to you.

14:27 “Peace I leave with you; ²⁸  my peace I give to you; I do not give it ²⁹  to you as the world does. ³⁰  Do not let your hearts be distressed or lacking in courage. ³¹  14:28 You heard me say to you, ³²  ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad ³³  that I am going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I am. ³⁴  14:29 I have told you now before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe. ³⁵  14:30 I will not speak with you much longer, ³⁶  for the ruler of this world is coming. ³⁷  He has no power over me, ³⁸  14:31 but I am doing just what the Father commanded me, so that the world may know ³⁹  that I love the Father. ⁴⁰  Get up, let us go from here.” ⁴¹ 

16:7 The Lord’s angel ¹  found Hagar near a spring of water in the desert – the spring that is along the road to Shur. ²  16:8 He said, “Hagar, servant of Sarai, where have you come from, and where are you going?” She replied, “I’m running away from ³  my mistress, Sarai.”

16:9 Then the Lord’s angel said to her, “Return to your mistress and submit ⁴  to her authority. 16:10 I will greatly multiply your descendants,” the Lord’s angel added, ⁵  “so that they will be too numerous to count.” ⁶  16:11 Then the Lord’s angel said to her,

“You are now ⁷  pregnant

and are about to give birth ⁸  to a son.

You are to name him Ishmael, ⁹ 

for the Lord has heard your painful groans. ¹⁰ 

16:12 He will be a wild donkey ¹¹  of a man.

He will be hostile to everyone, ¹² 

and everyone will be hostile to him. ¹³ 

He will live away from ¹⁴  his brothers.”

16:13 So Hagar named the Lord who spoke to her, “You are the God who sees me,” ¹⁵  for she said, “Here I have seen one who sees me!” ¹⁶  16:14 That is why the well was called ¹⁷  Beer Lahai Roi. ¹⁸  (It is located ¹⁹  between Kadesh and Bered.)

16:15 So Hagar gave birth to Abram’s son, whom Abram named Ishmael. ²⁰
