约翰福音 16
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
16 “我把这些事告诉了你们，使你们不致后退。 2 人要把你们赶出会堂；并且时候要到，所有要杀害你们的人，以为这样就是事奉 神。 3 他们要作这些事，因为他们不认识父，也不认识我。 4 我把这些事告诉了你们，让你们到了那个时候，可以想起我告诉过你们了。
圣灵的工作
“我起初没有把这些事告诉你们，因为我跟你们在一起。 5 现在我要到那差我来的那里去，你们中间并没有人问：‘你到哪里去？’ 6 然而因为我把这些事告诉了你们，你们心里就充满忧愁。 7 但我要把实情告诉你们，我去是对你们有益的。如果我不去，保惠师就不会到你们这里来；我若去了，就会差他到你们这里来。 8 他来了，就要在罪、在义、在审判各方面指证世人的罪。 9 在罪方面，是因为他们不信我； 10 在义方面，是因为我到父那里去，你们就再看不见我； 11 在审判方面，是因为这世界的统治者已经受了审判。
12 “我还有许多事要告诉你们，可是你们现在担当不了； 13 只等真理的灵来了，他要引导你们进入一切真理。他不是凭着自己说话，而是把他听见的都说出来，并且要把将来的事告诉你们。 14 他要荣耀我，因为他要把从我那里所领受的告诉你们。 15 父所有的一切，都是我的；所以我说，他要把从我那里所领受的告诉你们。
你们的忧愁要变为喜乐
16 “不久，你们不会再看见我；再过不久，你们还要看见我。” 17 于是他的门徒中有几个彼此说：“他对我们说：‘不久，你们不会看见我；再过不久，你们还要看见我。’又说：‘因为我到父那里去。’这是甚么意思呢？” 18 他们又说：“他所说的‘不久’，是甚么意思呢？我们不晓得他在讲甚么。” 19 耶稣知道他们想问他，就说：“我所说的‘不久，你们不会看见我；再过不久，你们还要看见我’，你们为了这话彼此议论吗？ 20 我实实在在告诉你们，你们要痛哭哀号，世人却要欢喜；你们要忧愁，但你们的忧愁要变为喜乐。 21 妇人生产的时候会有忧愁，因为她的时候到了；但生了孩子以后，就不再记住那痛苦了，因为欢喜有一个人生到世上来。 22 现在你们也有忧愁；但我要再见你们，你们的心就会喜乐，你们的喜乐是没有人能够夺去的。 23 到了那天，你们甚么也不会问我了。我实实在在告诉你们，你们奉我的名无论向父求甚么，他必定赐给你们。 24 你们向来没有奉我的名求甚么；现在你们祈求，就必定得着，让你们的喜乐满溢。
耶稣已经胜过世界
25 “我用譬喻对你们说了这些事，时候要到，我不再用譬喻对你们说了，而是把关于父的事明明白白告诉你们。 26 到了那天，你们要奉我的名祈求，我不是说我要为你们请求父； 27 父自己爱你们，因为你们已经爱我，并且信我是从 神那里来的。 28 我从父那里来，到了这世界；我又离开这世界，到父那里去。” 29 门徒说：“你看，现在你是明说，不是用譬喻说了。 30 现在我们知道你是无所不知的，不需要人向你发问。因此，我们信你是从 神那里来的。” 31 耶稣对他们说：“现在你们信吗？ 32 看哪，时候要到，而且已经到了，你们要分散，各人到自己的地方去，只留下我独自一个人。其实我不是独自一个人，因为有父与我同在。 33 我把这些事告诉你们，是要使你们在我里面有平安。在世上你们有患难，但你们放心，我已经胜了这世界。”
John 16
New King James Version
Jesus Warns and Comforts His Disciples
16 “These things I have spoken to you, that you (A)should not be made to stumble. 2 (B)They will put you out of the synagogues; yes, the time is coming (C)that whoever kills you will think that he offers God service. 3 And (D)these things they will do [a]to you because they have not known the Father nor Me. 4 But these things I have told you, that when [b]the time comes, you may remember that I told you of them.
“And these things I did not say to you at the beginning, because I was with you.
The Work of the Holy Spirit
5 “But now I (E)go away to Him who sent Me, and none of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, (F)sorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but (G)if I depart, I will send Him to you. 8 And when He has (H)come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9 (I)of sin, because they do not believe in Me; 10 (J)of righteousness, (K)because I go to My Father and you see Me no more; 11 (L)of judgment, because (M)the ruler of this world is judged.
12 “I still have many things to say to you, (N)but you cannot bear them now. 13 However, when He, (O)the Spirit of truth, has come, (P)He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. 14 (Q)He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. 15 (R)All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He [c]will take of Mine and declare it to you.
Sorrow Will Turn to Joy
16 “A (S)little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me, (T)because I go to the Father.”
17 Then some of His disciples said among themselves, “What is this that He says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’; and, ‘because I go to the Father’?” 18 They said therefore, “What is this that He says, ‘A little while’? We do not [d]know what He is saying.”
19 Now Jesus knew that they desired to ask Him, and He said to them, “Are you inquiring among yourselves about what I said, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’? 20 Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and (U)lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into (V)joy. 21 (W)A woman, when she is in labor, has sorrow because her hour has come; but as soon as she has given birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world. 22 Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and (X)your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you.
23 “And in that day you will ask Me nothing. (Y)Most assuredly, 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, (Z)that your joy may be (AA)full.
Jesus Christ Has Overcome the World
25 “These things I have spoken to you in figurative language; but the time is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figurative language, but I will tell you (AB)plainly about the Father. 26 In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I shall pray the Father for you; 27 (AC)for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me, and (AD)have believed that I came forth from God. 28 (AE)I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”
29 His disciples said to Him, “See, now You are speaking plainly, and using no figure of speech! 30 Now we are sure that (AF)You know all things, and have no need that anyone should question You. By this (AG)we believe that You came forth from God.”
31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe? 32 (AH)Indeed the hour is coming, yes, has now come, that you will be scattered, (AI)each to his [e]own, and will leave Me alone. And (AJ)yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me. 33 These things I have spoken to you, that (AK)in Me you may have peace. (AL)In the world you [f]will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, (AM)I have overcome the world.”

約翰福音 16
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
聖靈的工作
16 「我把這些事告訴你們，以免你們失去信心。 2 人們將把你們趕出會堂；時候將到，殺害你們的人還以為是在事奉上帝。 3 他們這樣做，是因為他們根本不認識父，也不認識我。 4 我把這些事提前告訴你們，是要叫你們到時候可以想起我曾跟你們講過這些事。我以前沒有告訴你們，那是因為我還跟你們在一起。
5 「現在我要去差我來的父那裡，你們沒有人問我去哪裡。 6 因為我把這些事告訴了你們，你們心裡充滿了憂愁。 7 然而，我把實情告訴你們，我去對你們是有益的，因為如果我不去，護慰者就不會來，我去了就會派祂到你們這裡來。 8 祂來了，就要在罪、義、審判方面責備世人。 9 在罪方面責備他們，是因為他們不信我； 10 在義方面責備他們，是因為我要去父那裡，你們再也看不到我了； 11 在審判方面責備他們，是因為這世界的王受了審判。
12 「我還有許多事情要告訴你們，可是你們現在不能明白。 13 等到真理之靈來了，祂會引導你們，讓你們明白一切的真理。祂不憑自己說話，而是把祂所聽見的和有關將來的事告訴你們。 14 祂也要把從我那裡領受的指示你們，使我得榮耀。 15 因為父的一切都是我的，所以我才說祂要把從我那裡領受的指示你們。
轉憂為喜
16 「不久，你們就見不到我了，再過不久，你們還會看見我。」
17 幾個門徒彼此議論說：「祂說，『不久，你們就見不到我了，再過不久，你們還會看見我』，祂又說，『因為我要去父那裡』，這到底是什麼意思呢？ 18 祂說『不久』是什麼意思呢？我們真不明白！」
19 耶穌知道他們想問祂，就說：「你們在議論我剛才說的話是什麼意思嗎？ 20 我實實在在地告訴你們，你們將痛哭、哀號，世人卻要歡喜；你們將憂愁，然而你們的憂愁將變為喜樂。 21 婦人分娩時都會痛苦不已，但孩子生下來後，她就會因為這世界添了一個新生命而充滿歡樂，忘掉了生產的痛苦。 22 同樣，現在你們有憂愁，但到我再見你們的時候，你們的心必歡喜，而且這份喜樂是誰也奪不去的。
23 「到那一天，你們就什麼也不用問我了。我實實在在地告訴你們，你們奉我的名無論向父求什麼，祂都會賜給你們。 24 你們從來沒有奉我的名求過什麼，你們現在求，就必得到，好使你們的喜樂滿溢。
勝過世界
25 「我一直用比喻跟你們講這些事，不久，我就不再用比喻了，而是清楚地把父的事告訴你們。 26 到那天，你們將要奉我的名祈求，我不是說我要為你們向父祈求。 27 父愛你們，因為你們一直愛我，並且相信我來自上帝。 28 我從父那裡來到這個世界，現在我要離開這個世界回到父那裡。」
29 門徒說：「如今你直截了當地告訴我們，不再用比喻了。 30 現在我們知道你無所不知，無需人向你發問，因此我們相信你來自上帝。」
31 耶穌說：「你們現在相信嗎？ 32 看啊！時候快到了，現在就是，你們將要分散，各自回家，只留下我一人。不過，我並非一人，因為父與我在一起。 33 我把這些事告訴你們，是要叫你們在我裡面有平安。你們在世上會有苦難，但你們要放心，我已經勝過這個世界。」
