约翰福音 16
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
16 “我对你们说了这些事,是要使你们不至于跌倒。 2 人要把你们赶出会堂,而且时候将到,凡杀你们的还以为是在事奉 神。 3 他们这样做,是因为没有认识父,也没有认识我。 4 我对你们说了这些事,是要在他们做这些事的时候,你们会想起我对你们说过的话。”
圣灵的工作
“我起先没有对你们说这些事,因为我一直与你们同在。 5 现在我要到差我来的父那里去,你们中间却没有人问我‘你去哪里?’ 6 只因我对你们说了这些事,你们就满心忧愁。 7 然而,我把真情告诉你们,我去对你们是有益的。我若不去,保惠师就不会到你们这里来;我若去,就差他到你们这里来。 8 他来的时候,要为罪、为义,为审判,指证世人; 9 为罪,是因他们不信我; 10 为义,是因我到父那里去,你们将不再见到我; 11 为审判,是因这世界的统治者已受了审判。
12 “我还有好些事要告诉你们,但你们现在担当不了[a]。 13 但真理的灵来的时候,他要引导你们进入一切真理。因为他不是凭着自己说的,而是把他所听见的都说出来,并且要把将要来的事向你们传达。 14 他要荣耀我,因为他要把从我领受的向你们传达。 15 凡父所有的都是我的,所以我说,他要把从我领受的向你们传达。”
忧愁变为喜乐
16 “不久,你们将不再见到我;再过不久,你们还要见到我。” 17 有几个门徒彼此说:“他对我们说‘不久,你们将不再见到我;再过不久,你们还要见到我’;又说‘因我到父那里去’。这是什么意思呢?” 18 于是门徒说:“他说[b]‘不久’到底是什么意思呢?我们不明白他说什么。” 19 耶稣看出他们要问他,就对他们说:“我说‘不久,你们将不再见到我;再过不久,你们还要见到我’,你们为这话彼此询问吗? 20 我实实在在地告诉你们,你们将要痛哭,哀号,世人反要欢喜。你们将要忧愁,然而你们的忧愁要变成喜乐。 21 妇人生产的时候会忧愁,因为她的时候到了;但孩子一生出来,就不再记得那痛苦了,因为欢喜有一个人生在世上了。 22 你们现在也是忧愁,但我要再见到你们,你们的心就会有喜乐了;这喜乐没有人能夺去。 23 到那日,你们什么也不会问我了。我实实在在地告诉你们,你们奉我的名无论向父求什么,他会赐给你们[c]。 24 直到现在,你们没有奉我的名求什么,如今你们求就必得着,使你们的喜乐得以满足。”
我已经胜过世界
25 “这些事,我是用比方对你们说的;时候将到,我不再用比方对你们说,而是要把父的事明白地告诉你们。 26 到那日,你们要奉我的名祈求;我并不对你们说,我要为你们向父祈求。 27 父自己爱你们,因为你们已经爱我,又信我是从 神[d]而来的。 28 我从父而来,到了世界[e],又离开世界,到父那里去。”
29 门徒说:“你看,如今你是明说,不用比方了。 30 现在我们晓得你凡事都知道,也不需要有人问你;从此我们信你是从 神而来的。” 31 耶稣回答他们:“现在你们信了吗? 32 看哪,时候将到,其实已经到了,你们要分散,各归自己的地方,留下我独自一人;然而我不是独自一人,因为有父与我同在。 33 我对你们说了这些事,是要使你们在我里面有平安。在世上你们有苦难,但你们要有勇气[f],我已经胜过世界。”
John 16
Lexham English Bible
Persecution of Disciples Predicted
16 “I have said these things to you so that you will not fall away. 2 They will expel you from the synagogue,[a] but an hour is coming that everyone who kills you will think they are offering service to God. 3 And they will do these things because they do not know the Father or me. 4 But I have said these things to you so that when their hour comes, you may remember that I told you about them.
Jesus’ Departure and the Coming of the Holy Spirit
“And I have not said these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you. 5 But now I am going away to the one who sent me, and none of you is asking me, ‘Where are you going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your hearts. 7 But I tell you the truth, it is better for you that I go away. For if I do not go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. 8 And when he[b] comes, he will convict the world concerning sin and concerning righteousness and concerning judgment: 9 concerning sin, because they do not believe in me, 10 and concerning righteousness, because I am going away to the Father and you will see me no more, 11 and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been condemned.
12 I still have many things to say to you, but you are not able to bear them[c] now. 13 But when he—the Spirit of truth—comes, he will guide you into all the truth. For he will not speak from himself, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will proclaim to you the things to come. 14 He will glorify me, because he will take from what is mine and will proclaim it[d] to you. 15 Everything that the Father has is mine. For this reason I said that he takes from what is mine and will proclaim it[e] to you.
Jesus Predicts His Return to the Disciples
16 “A little while and you will see me no more, and again a little while and you will see me. 17 So some of his disciples said to one another, “What is this that he is saying to us, ‘A little while and you will not see me, and again a little while and you will see me,’ and ‘Because I am going away to the Father’?” 18 So they kept on saying, “What is this that he is saying, ‘A little while’? We do not understand what he is speaking about!”
19 Jesus knew that they were wanting to ask him, and he said to them, “Are you deliberating with one another about this—that I said, ‘A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while and you will see me’? 20 Truly, truly I say to you, that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; you will become sorrowful, but your sorrow will change to joy. 21 A woman, when she gives birth, experiences pain because her hour has come. But when her[f] child is born, she no longer remembers the affliction, on account of the joy that a human being has been born into the world. 22 So you also are experiencing sorrow now, but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy from you. 23 And on that day you will ask me nothing. Truly, truly I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give you. 24 Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.
Jesus’ Victory Over the World
25 “I have said these things to you in figurative sayings. An hour is coming when I will speak to you in figurative sayings no longer, but I will tell you plainly about the Father. 26 On that day you will ask in my name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf. 27 For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God. 28 I have gone out from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and am going to the Father.”
29 His disciples said, “Behold, now you are speaking plainly[g] and are telling us[h] no figurative saying! 30 Now we know that you know everything and do not need for[i] anyone to ask you questions.[j] By this we believe that you have come from God.”
31 Jesus replied to them, “Now do you believe? 32 Behold, an hour is coming—and has come—that you will be scattered each one to his own home,[k] and you will leave me alone. And I am not alone, because the Father is with me. 33 I have said these things to you so that in me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction, but have courage! I have conquered the world.”
