26 Mas aquele Consolador, o Espírito Santo, ao qual o Pai enviará em meu nome, esse vos ensinará tudo, e tudo quanto tenho dito vós, [ele] vos fará lembrar.
27 A paz vos deixo, minha paz vos dou; vou dá- [la] a vós, não como o mundo [a] dá. Não se perturbe vosso coração, nem se atemorize.
28 Já ouvistes que vos tenho dito: Vou, e venho a vós. Se me amásseis, verdadeiramente vos alegraríeis, porque tenho dito: Vou ao Pai; pois meu Pai maior é que eu.

30 Já não falarei muito convosco; pois o príncipe deste mundo já vem, e ele nada tem em mim.
