These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full.

He that loveth his life loseth it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.

It is the spirit that giveth life; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, are are life.

In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

He that believeth on the Son hath eternal life; but he that obeyeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him.

For as the Father raiseth the dead and giveth them life, even so the Son also giveth life to whom he will.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath eternal life, and cometh not into judgment, but hath passed out of death into life.

For as the Father hath life in himself, even so gave he to the Son also to have life in himself:

He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, that standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is made full.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, that ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but when she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for the joy that a man is born into the world.

And ye therefore now have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one taketh away from you.

Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be made full.

But now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves.
