^{1 Ref} `These things I have spoken to you, that ye may not be stumbled,

^{2 Ref} out of the synagogues they will put you; but an hour doth come, that every one who hath killed you, may think to offer service unto God;

^{3 Ref} and these things they will do to you, because they did not know the Father, nor me.

^{4 Ref} `But these things I have spoken to you, that when the hour may come, ye may remember them, that I said `them' to you, and these things to you from the beginning I did not say, because I was with you;

^{5 Ref} and now I go away to Him who sent me, and none of you doth ask me, Whither dost thou go?

^{6 Ref} but because these things I have said to you, the sorrow hath filled your heart.

^{7 Ref} `But I tell you the truth; it is better for you that I go away, for if I may not go away, the Comforter will not come unto you, and if I go on, I will send Him unto you;

^{8 Ref} and having come, He will convict the world concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment;

^{9 Ref} concerning sin indeed, because they do not believe in me;

^{10 Ref} and concerning righteousness, because unto my Father I go away, and no more do ye behold me;

^{11 Ref} and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world hath been judged.

^{12 Ref} `I have yet many things to say to you, but ye are not able to bear `them' now;

^{13 Ref} and when He may come -- the Spirit of truth -- He will guide you to all the truth, for He will not speak from Himself, but as many things as He will hear He will speak, and the coming things He will tell you;

^{14 Ref} He will glorify me, because of mine He will take, and will tell to you.

^{15 Ref} `All things, as many as the Father hath, are mine; because of this I said, That of mine He will take, and will tell to you;

^{16 Ref} a little while, and ye do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go away unto the Father.'

^{17 Ref} Therefore said `some' of his disciples one to another, `What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me, and, Because I go away unto the Father?'

^{18 Ref} they said then, `What is this he saith -- the little while? we have not known what he saith.'

^{19 Ref} Jesus, therefore, knew that they were wishing to ask him, and he said to them, `Concerning this do ye seek one with another, because I said, A little while, and you do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me?

^{20 Ref} verily, verily, I say to you, that ye shall weep and lament, and the world will rejoice; and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow joy will become.

^{21 Ref} `The woman, when she may bear, hath sorrow, because her hour did come, and when she may bear the child, no more doth she remember the anguish, because of the joy that a man was born to the world.

^{22 Ref} `And ye, therefore, now, indeed, have sorrow; and again I will see you, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one doth take from you,

^{23 Ref} and in that day ye will question me nothing; verily, verily, I say to you, as many things as ye may ask of the Father in my name, He will give you;

^{24 Ref} till now ye did ask nothing in my name; ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

^{25 Ref} `These things in similitudes I have spoken to you, but there cometh an hour when no more in similitudes will I speak to you, but freely of the Father, will tell you.

^{26 Ref} `In that day, in my name ye will make request, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father for you,

^{27 Ref} for the Father himself doth love you, because me ye have loved, and ye have believed that I from God came forth;

^{28 Ref} I came forth from the Father, and have come to the world; again I leave the world, and go on unto the Father.'

^{29 Ref} His disciples say to him, `Lo, now freely thou dost speak, and no similitude speakest thou;

^{30 Ref} now we have known that thou hast known all things, and hast no need that any one do question thee; in this we believe that from God thou didst come forth.'

^{31 Ref} Jesus answered them, `Now do ye believe? lo, there doth come an hour,

^{32 Ref} and now it hath come, that ye may be scattered, each to his own things, and me ye may leave alone, and I am not alone, because the Father is with me;

^{33 Ref} these things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace, in the world ye shall have tribulation, but take courage -- I have overcome the world.'

^{1 Ref} I have said these things to you so that you may not be in doubt.

^{2 Ref} They will put you out of the Synagogues: yes, the time is coming when whoever puts you to death will have the belief that he is doing God's pleasure.

^{3 Ref} They will do these things to you because they have not had knowledge of the Father or of me.

^{4 Ref} I have said these things to you so that when the time comes, what I have said may come to your mind. I did not say them to you at the first, because then I was still with you.

^{5 Ref} But now I am going to him who sent me; and not one of you says to me, Where are you going?

^{6 Ref} But your hearts are full of sorrow because I have said these things.

^{7 Ref} But what I am saying is true: my going is for your good: for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

^{8 Ref} And he, when he comes, will make the world conscious of sin, and of righteousness, and of being judged:

^{9 Ref} Of sin, because they have not faith in me;

^{10 Ref} Of righteousness, because I go to the Father and you will see me no more;

^{11 Ref} Of being judged, because the ruler of this world has been judged.

^{12 Ref} I have still much to say to you, but you are not strong enough for it now.

^{13 Ref} However, when he, the Spirit of true knowledge, has come, he will be your guide into all true knowledge: for his words will not come from himself, but whatever has come to his hearing, that he will say: and he will make clear to you the things to come.

^{14 Ref} He will give me glory, because he will take of what is mine, and make it clear to you.

^{15 Ref} Everything which the Father has is mine: that is why I say, He will take of what is mine and will make it clear to you.

^{16 Ref} After a little time you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me.

^{17 Ref} So some of the disciples said one to another, What is this he is saying, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me? and, I am going to the Father?

^{18 Ref} So they said again and again, What is this he is saying, A little time? His words are not clear to us.

^{19 Ref} Jesus saw that they had a desire to put the question to him, so he said to them, Is this what you are questioning one with another, why I said, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me?

^{20 Ref} Truly I say to you, You will be weeping and sorrowing, but the world will be glad: you will be sad, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.

^{21 Ref} When a woman is about to give birth she has sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she has given birth to the child, the pain is put out of her mind by the joy that a man has come into the world.

^{22 Ref} So you have sorrow now: but I will see you again, and your hearts will be glad, and no one will take away your joy.

^{23 Ref} And on that day you will put no questions to me. Truly I say to you, Whatever request you make to the Father, he will give it to you in my name.

^{24 Ref} Up to now you have made no request in my name: do so, and it will be answered, so that your hearts may be full of joy.

^{25 Ref} All this I have said to you in veiled language: but the time is coming when I will no longer say things in veiled language but will give you knowledge of the Father clearly.

^{26 Ref} In that day you will make requests in my name: and I do not say that I will make prayer to the Father for you,

^{27 Ref} For the Father himself gives his love to you, because you have given your love to me and have had faith that I came from God.

^{28 Ref} I came out from the Father and have come into the world: again, I go away from the world and go to the Father.

^{29 Ref} His disciples said, Now you are talking clearly and not in veiled language.

^{30 Ref} Now we are certain that you have knowledge of all things and have no need for anyone to put questions to you: through this we have faith that you came from God.

^{31 Ref} Jesus made answer, Have you faith now?

^{32 Ref} See, a time is coming, yes, it is now here, when you will go away in all directions, every man to his house, and I will be by myself: but I am not by myself, because the Father is with me.

^{33 Ref} I have said all these things to you so that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble: but take heart! I have overcome the world.

^{1 Ref} These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.

^{2 Ref} They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

^{3 Ref} And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.

^{4 Ref} 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 unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.

^{5 Ref} But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?

^{6 Ref} But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

^{7 Ref} Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

^{8 Ref} And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

^{9 Ref} Of sin, because they believe not on me;

^{10 Ref} Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

^{11 Ref} Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

^{12 Ref} I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

^{13 Ref} Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

^{14 Ref} He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

^{15 Ref} All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

^{16 Ref} 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.

^{17 Ref} Then said some of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith unto 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?

^{18 Ref} They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.

^{19 Ref} Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?

^{20 Ref} Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

^{21 Ref} 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.

^{22 Ref} 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.

^{23 Ref} And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.

^{24 Ref} Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

^{25 Ref} These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.

^{26 Ref} At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:

^{27 Ref} For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.

^{28 Ref} I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.

^{29 Ref} His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.

^{30 Ref} 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 forth from God.

^{31 Ref} Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?

^{32 Ref} Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is 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.

^{33 Ref} These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
