John 16
1 Christ comforteth his disciples against tribulation by the promise of the Holy Ghost, and by his resurrection and ascension: 23 assureth their prayers made in his name to be acceptable to his Father. 33 Peace in Christ, and in the world affliction.
16:1 ¶
These things have I spoken to you, that ye should not be offended.
16:2
They shall put you out of the synagogues: yes, the time cometh, that whoever killeth you, will think that he doeth God service.
16:3
And these things will they do to you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.
16:4
But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not to you at the beginning, because I was with you.
16:5
But now I go to him that sent me, and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?
16:6
But because I have said these things to you, sorrow hath filled your heart.
16:7
Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: It is expedient for you that I depart; for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send him to you.
16:8
And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
16:9
Of sin, because they believe not on me;
16:10
Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
16:11
Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
16:12
I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now.
16:13
But, when he, the Spirit of truth is come, he will guide you into all the truth: for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he shall hear, [that] will he speak: and he will show you things to come.
16:14
He will glorify me: for he will receive of mine, and will show [it] to you.
16:15
All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore I said, that he will take of mine, and show [it] to you.
16:16
A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
16:17
Then said [some] of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?
16:18
They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.
16:19
Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said to them, Do ye inquire among yourselves of that which I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?
16:20
Verily, verily, I say to you, that ye will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice: and ye will be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
16:21
A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.
16:22
And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.
16:23
And in that day ye will ask me nothing: Verily, verily, I say to you, Whatever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give [it] you.
16:24
Hitherto ye have asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
16:25
These things have I spoken to you in proverbs: but the time cometh when I shall no more speak to you in proverbs, but I shall show you plainly concerning the Father.
16:26
At that day ye will ask in my name: and I say not to you, that I will pray the Father for you:
16:27
For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.
16:28
I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.
16:29
His disciples said to him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.
16:30
Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest from God.
16:31
Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
16:32
Behold, the hour cometh, and is even now come, that ye shall be scattered every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
16:33
These things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace. In the world ye will have tribulation, but be of good cheer: I have overcome the world.
