1Now I declare to you,brothers, the Good News which I preached to you,which also you received,in which you also stand,2by which also you are saved,if you hold firmly the word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.

3For I delivered to you first of allthat which I also received:that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,4that he was buried,that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,5and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.6Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once,most of whom remain until now,but some have also fallen asleep.7Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles,8and last of all, as to the child born at the wrong time,he appeared to me also.

2The heavens declare the glory of God.The expanse shows his handiwork.3Day after day they pour out speech,and night after night they display knowledge.

4There is no speech nor languagewhere their voice is not heard.5Their voice has gone out through all the earth,their words to the end of the world.In them he has set a tent for the sun,

6Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.No one comes to the Father, except through me.7If you had known me, you would have known my Father also.From now on, you know him and have seen him.”

8Philip said to him,“Lord, show us the Father,and that will be enough for us.”

9Jesus said to him,“Have I been with you such a long time,and do you not know me, Philip?He who has seen me has seen the Father.How do you say, ‘Show us the Father’?10Don’t you believe that I am in the Father,and the Father in me?The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself;but the Father who lives in me does his works.11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me;or else believe me for the very works’ sake.12Most certainly I tell you,he who believes in me,the works that I do, he will do also;and he will do greater works than these,because I am going to my Father.13Whatever you will ask in my name,I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.14If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.
