John 16
16
CHAPTER 16
1These things I have spoken to you, that ye be not caused to stumble.
2They shall make you without the synagogues, but the hour cometh, that each man that slayeth you, deem that he doeth service to God.
3And they shall do to you these things, for they have not known the Father, neither me.
4But these things I spake to you, that when the hour of them shall come, ye have mind, that I said to you. I said not to you these things from the beginning, for I was with you.
5And now I go to him that sent me, and no man of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?
6but for I have spoken to you these things, heaviness [or sorrow] hath full-filled your heart.
7But I say to you truth, it speedeth to you, that I go; for if I go not forth [or go away], the Comforter shall not come to you; but if I go forth [or go away], I shall send him to you.
8And when he cometh, he shall reprove the world of sin, and of rightwiseness, and of doom,
9Of sin, for they have not believed in me;
10and of rightwiseness, for I go to the Father, and now ye shall not see me;
11but of doom, for the prince of this world is now deemed.
12Yet I have many things to say to you, but ye may not bear them now.
13But when the Spirit of truth cometh, he shall teach you all truth; for he shall not speak of himself, but whatever things he shall hear, he shall speak; and he shall tell to you those things that be to come.
14He shall clarify me, for of mine he shall take, and shall tell to you.
15All things, whatever [things] the Father hath, be mine; therefore I said to you, that of mine he shall take, and shall tell to you.
16A little, and then ye shall not see me; and again a little, and ye shall see me, for I go to the Father.
17Therefore some of his disciples said together, What is this thing that he saith to us, A little, and ye shall not see me; and again a little, and ye shall see me, for I go to the Father?
18Therefore they said, What is this that he saith to us, A little? we know not what he speaketh.
19And Jesus knew, that they would ask him, and he said to them, Of this thing ye seek among you, for I said, A little, and ye shall not see me; and again a little, and ye shall see me.
20Truly, truly, I say to you, that ye shall mourn and weep, but the world shall have joy; and ye shall be sorrow-ful, but your sorrow shall turn into joy.
21A woman when she beareth child, hath heaviness [or sorrow], for her time is come; but when she hath born a son, now she thinketh not on the pain, for joy, for a man is born into the world.
22And therefore ye have now sorrow, but again I shall see you, and your heart shall have joy, and no man shall take from you your joy.
23And in that day ye shall not ask me anything; truly, truly, I say to you, if ye ask the Father anything in my name, he shall give [it] to you.
24Till now ye asked nothing in my name; ask ye, and ye shall take, that your joy be full.
25I have spoken to you these things in proverbs; the hour cometh, when now I shall not speak to you in proverbs, but openly of my Father I shall tell to you.
26In that day ye shall ask in my name; and I say not to you, that I shall pray the Father for you;
27for the Father himself loveth you, for ye have loved me, and have believed, that I went out from God.
28I went out from the Father, and I came into the world; again I leave the world, and go to the Father.
29His disciples said to him, Lo! now thou speakest openly, and thou sayest no proverb.
30Now we know, that thou know-est all things; and it is not need [or no need] to thee, that any man ask thee. In this thing we believe, that thou wentest out from God.
31Jesus answered to them, Now ye believe.
32Lo! the hour cometh, and now it cometh, that ye be dispersed, [or scattered], each into his own things, and that ye leave me alone; and I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
33These things I have spoken to you, that ye have peace in me; in the world ye shall have dis-ease, [or have pressing, or over-laying], but trust ye, I have overcome the world.
