| John 16:1 |
These things I have spoken to you so that you would not be stumbled. |
| John 16:2 |
They will put you out of the synagogues; but an hour is coming for everyone who kills you to think that he is offering service to God. |
| John 16:3 |
And these things they will do because they have not known the Father nor Me. |
| John 16:4 |
But these things I have spoken to you that when their hour comes you may remember them, that I told you [of them.] Now these things I have not said to you from the beginning, because I was with you. |
| John 16:5 |
But now I am going to Him who sent Me; and none of you asks Me, Where are You going? |
| John 16:6 |
But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. |
| John 16:7 |
But I tell you the truth, It is expedient for you that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you. |
| John 16:8 |
And when He comes, He will convict the world concerning sin and concerning righteousness and concerning judgment: |
| John 16:9 |
Concerning sin, because they do not believe into Me; |
| John 16:10 |
And concerning righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you no longer behold Me; |
| John 16:11 |
And concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged. |
| John 16:12 |
I have yet many things to say to you, but you cannot bear [them] now. |
| John 16:13 |
But when He, the Spirit of reality, comes, He will guide you into all the reality; for He will not speak from Himself, but what He hears He will speak; and He will declare to you the things that are coming. |
| John 16:14 |
He will glorify Me, for He will receive of Mine and will declare [it] to you. |
| John 16:15 |
All that the Father has is Mine; for this [reason] I have said that He receives of Mine and will declare [it] to you. |
| John 16:16 |
A little while and you no longer behold Me, and again a little while and you will see Me. |
| John 16:17 |
[Some] of His disciples then said to one another, What is this that He says to us, A little while and you do not behold Me, and again a little while and you will see Me; and, Because I am going to the Father? |
| John 16:18 |
Therefore they said, What is this that He says, A little while? We do not know what He is talking about. |
| John 16:19 |
Jesus knew that they wanted to ask Him and He said to them, Are you inquiring among yourselves concerning this, that I said, A little while and you do not behold Me, and again a little while and you will see Me? |
| John 16:20 |
Truly, truly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy. |
| John 16:21 |
A woman, when she gives birth, has sorrow because her hour has come; but when she brings forth the little child, she no longer remembers the affliction because of the joy that a man has been born into the world. |
| John 16:22 |
Therefore you also now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and no one takes your joy away from you. |
| John 16:23 |
And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Truly, truly, I say to you, Whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give to you. |
| John 16:24 |
Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask and you shall receive, that your joy may be made full. |
| John 16:25 |
These things I have spoken to you in parables; an hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in parables, but I will report to you plainly concerning the Father. |
| John 16:26 |
In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father concerning you, |
| John 16:27 |
For the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came forth from God. |
| John 16:28 |
I came forth out from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and am going to the Father. |
| John 16:29 |
His disciples said, Behold, now You are speaking plainly and not saying any parable. |
| John 16:30 |
Now we know that You know all things and have no need that anyone ask You; by this we believe that You came forth from God. |
| John 16:31 |
Jesus answered them, Do you now believe? |
| John 16:32 |
Behold, an hour is coming, and has come, that you will be scattered each to his own place and will leave Me alone; yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me. |
| John 16:33 |
These things I have spoken to you that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction, but take courage; I have overcome the world. |
