John 14:27 is a verse from the New Testament of the Bible, specifically from the Gospel of John. In this verse, Jesus speaks to his disciples, offering them peace and encouraging them not to let their hearts be troubled or afraid. The verse reads: "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." This passage is often interpreted as Jesus providing a unique and enduring peace that transcends worldly understanding. The phrase "Peace I leave with you" can be translated into Hebrew as "שלום אני נותן לכם" (Shalom ani noten lachem). In Greek, the original language of the New Testament, the verse begins with "Ειρηνην αφιημι υμιν" (Eirēnēn aphiemi hymin). Contextually, this verse is part of the Farewell Discourse, where Jesus prepares his disciples for his impending departure, offering them comfort and guidance. The verse is also significant in Christian liturgy and is often used in worship and meditation to invoke a sense of divine peace.
