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。”
Juan 16
La Biblia de las Américas
16 Estas cosas os he dicho(A) para que no tengáis tropiezo[a](B). 2 Os expulsarán de las sinagogas(C); pero viene la hora(D) cuando cualquiera que os mate pensará que así rinde un servicio a Dios(E). 3 Y harán estas cosas porque no han conocido ni al Padre ni a mí(F). 4 Pero os he dicho estas cosas para que cuando llegue la[b] hora(G), os acordéis de que ya os había hablado de ellas[c]. Y no os dije estas cosas al principio(H), porque yo estaba con vosotros. 5 Pero ahora voy al que me envió(I), y ninguno de vosotros me pregunta: «¿Adónde vas(J)?». 6 Mas porque os he dicho estas cosas, la tristeza ha llenado vuestro corazón(K).
La obra del Espíritu Santo
7 Pero yo os digo la verdad: os conviene que yo me vaya; porque si no me voy, el Consolador[d](L) no vendrá a vosotros; pero si me voy, os lo enviaré(M). 8 Y cuando Él venga, convencerá[e] al mundo de pecado, de justicia y de juicio; 9 de pecado, porque no creen en mí(N); 10 de justicia(O), porque yo voy al Padre(P) y no me veréis más; 11 y de juicio, porque el príncipe de este mundo ha sido juzgado(Q). 12 Aún tengo muchas cosas que deciros, pero ahora no las podéis soportar. 13 Pero cuando Él, el Espíritu de verdad(R), venga, os guiará a toda la verdad, porque no hablará por su propia cuenta, sino que hablará todo lo que oiga, y os hará saber(S) lo que habrá de venir. 14 El me glorificará(T), porque tomará de lo mío y os lo hará saber. 15 Todo lo que tiene el Padre es mío(U); por eso dije que Él toma de lo mío y os lo hará saber. 16 Un poco más(V), y ya no me veréis(W); y de nuevo un poco, y me veréis(X). 17 Entonces algunos de sus discípulos se decían unos a otros: ¿Qué es esto que nos dice: «Un poco más, y no me veréis, y de nuevo un poco, y me veréis(Y)» y «Porque yo voy al Padre(Z)»? 18 Por eso decían: ¿Qué es esto que dice: «Un poco»? No sabemos de qué habla. 19 Jesús sabía que querían preguntarle(AA), y les dijo: ¿Estáis discutiendo entre vosotros sobre esto, porque dije: «Un poco más, y no me veréis, y de nuevo un poco, y me veréis»? 20 En verdad, en verdad os digo que lloraréis y os lamentaréis(AB), pero el mundo se alegrará; estaréis tristes, pero vuestra tristeza se convertirá en alegría(AC). 21 Cuando la mujer está para dar a luz, tiene aflicción(AD), porque ha llegado su hora; pero cuando da a luz al niño, ya no se acuerda de la angustia, por la alegría de que un niño[f] haya nacido en el mundo. 22 Por tanto, ahora vosotros tenéis también aflicción(AE); pero yo os veré otra vez(AF), y vuestro corazón se alegrará, y nadie os quitará vuestro gozo. 23 En aquel día(AG) no me preguntaréis nada(AH). En verdad, en verdad os digo: si pedís algo al Padre, os lo dará en mi nombre(AI). 24 Hasta ahora nada habéis pedido en mi nombre(AJ); pedid y recibiréis, para que vuestro gozo sea completo(AK).
25 Estas cosas os he hablado en lenguaje figurado[g](AL); viene el tiempo[h](AM) cuando no os hablaré más en lenguaje figurado[i], sino que os hablaré del Padre claramente. 26 En ese día(AN) pediréis(AO) en mi nombre, y no os digo que yo rogaré al Padre por vosotros, 27 pues el Padre mismo os ama, porque vosotros me habéis amado(AP) y habéis creído(AQ) que yo salí del Padre(AR). 28 Salí del Padre(AS) y he venido al mundo; de nuevo, dejo el mundo y voy al Padre(AT). 29 Sus discípulos le dijeron*: He aquí que ahora hablas claramente y no usas lenguaje figurado[j](AU). 30 Ahora entendemos que tú sabes todas las cosas, y no necesitas que nadie te pregunte; por esto creemos(AV) que tú viniste de Dios(AW). 31 Jesús les respondió: ¿Ahora creéis? 32 Mirad, la hora viene(AX), y ya ha llegado, en que seréis esparcidos(AY), cada uno por su lado[k](AZ), y me dejaréis solo; y sin embargo no estoy solo(BA), porque el Padre está conmigo. 33 Estas cosas os he hablado para que en mí tengáis paz(BB). En el mundo tenéis tribulación(BC); pero confiad[l](BD), yo he vencido al mundo(BE).

John 16
New Catholic Bible
Chapter 16
1 “I have told you this
to prevent you from falling away.
2 They will expel you from the synagogues.
Indeed the hour is coming
when anyone who kills you
will believe that by doing so
he is serving God.
3 And people will do such things
because they have not known the Father or me.
4 But I have told you this
so that when the hour arrives
you may remember that I forewarned you about them.
The Spirit of Truth, Our Guide to All Truth[a]
“I did not tell you all this previously
because I was with you.
5 But now I am going away
to the one who sent me.
Not one of you asks me,
‘Where are you going?’
6 However, because I have told you this,
you are overcome with grief.
7 “Nevertheless, I am telling you the truth:
it is better for you that I depart.
For if I do not go away,
the Advocate will not come to you,
whereas if I go,
I will send him to you.
8 “And when he comes,
he will prove the world wrong
about sin and righteousness and judgment:
9 about sin,
because they do not believe in me;
10 about righteousness,
because I am going to the Father
and you will see me no longer;
11 about judgment,
because the ruler of this world has been condemned.
12 “I have much more to tell you,
but you would not be able to bear it now.
13 But when the Spirit of truth comes,
he will guide you into all the truth.
He will not speak on his own authority,
but he will speak what he hears,
and he will declare to you
the things that are coming.
14 He will glorify me,
for he will take what is mine
and communicate it to you.
15 Everything that the Father has is mine.
That is why I said
that he will take what is mine
and communicate it to you.
Triumph of Jesus and the Joy of the Witnesses[b]
16 “In a little while
you will no longer see me,
and then a short time later
you will see me again.”
17 Then some of his disciples said to one another, “What does he mean by saying to us, ‘In a little while you will no longer see me, and then a short time later you will see me again,’ and ‘Because I am going to the Father’? 18 What is this ‘little while’? We do not know what he means.”
19 Jesus knew that they wanted to question him, so he said to them,
“You are asking one another
what I meant by saying,
‘In a little while
you will no longer see me,
and then a short time later
you will see me again.’
20 Amen, amen, I say to you,
you will weep and mourn
while the world rejoices.
You will be sorrowful,
but your grief will turn into joy.
21 “A woman in labor suffers anguish
because her hour has come.
But when her baby is born,
she no longer recalls the suffering
because of her joy
that she has brought a child into the world.
22 In the same way,
you are now in anguish,
but I will see you again,
and your hearts will rejoice,
and no one shall deprive you of your joy.
23 “On that day,
you will not ask me anything further.
Amen, amen, I say to you,
if you ask the Father for anything in my name,
he will give it to you.
24 Until now, in my name,
you have not asked for anything.
Ask and you will receive,
so that your joy may be complete.
25 “I have used figures of speech
to explain these things to you.
The hour is coming
when I will no longer use figures,
but I will tell you about the Father in plain words.
26 When that day comes,
you will make requests in my name.
I do not say
that I will entreat the Father on your behalf.
27 For the Father himself loves you
because you have loved me
and have come to believe
that I came from God.
28 I came from the Father
and have come into the world.
Now I am leaving the world
and returning to the Father.”
29 “At last you are speaking plainly,” his disciples said, “and not using figures of speech. 30 Now we realize that you know everything and do not need to have anyone question you. Because of this, we believe that you came from God.” 31 Jesus responded,
“Have you finally come to believe?
32 I tell you, the hour is coming,
indeed it has already come,
when you will be scattered,
each one going to his own home,
and you will leave me alone.
And yet I am not alone
because the Father is with me.
33 “I have told you this
so that in me you may be in peace.
In the world
you will endure suffering.
But take courage!
I have overcome the world.”
Footnotes
- John 16:4 The disciples have to overcome sadness at the departure and absence of Jesus so that they may understand the meaning of the event: passage to glory, gift of the Spirit, and the beginning of a new era in the world. But until the end of history the trial of Jesus will not stop, and the disciples will have to testify to him in a world where unbelief appears unceasingly.
The testimony of Christians can never stop; such testimony does not depend on the intelligence and the strength of people but on the action of the Spirit, who unveils to Christians, in faith, the glory of Christ and the view that history takes of this light (Christ). It is not a matter of a new revelation but of a discovery of what the words, actions, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus mean for each era: the truth of God that denounces the falsehood of sin, the goodness of God that denounces evil, and the condemnation of the forces that enslave people. The Spirit is the Paraclete: defender of Jesus in the heart of believers, defender of believers facing unbelief and refusal of the light—that is, the world in the sense the world is taken here (Jn 15:5-15). The Spirit is strength, support, light (see Jn 14:16). - John 16:16 The departure of Jesus will be a moment of disarray for the disciples; his absence will more than once be a moment of disarray for believers. But that is not the last word. The sufferings, like the pains of giving birth, make a testimony fruitful. Let us rather look at the Death and Resurrection of Christ; they are the definitive events in history. From the cross and Easter a new light is given to believers; a new confidence with God is offered to them. Christ will be the mediator; with him believers will be one with God. This intimacy will be a time of endless joy and peace for people who have believed they are children of God.
What is the return of Christ? Is it the glorious coming at the end of time or the Resurrection manifested in the appearances? The two things go together. The Resurrection will inaugurate a new era, the last times; and the end of time will manifest the glory of the Risen One.
John 16
New International Version
16 “All this(A) I have told you so that you will not fall away.(B) 2 They will put you out of the synagogue;(C) in fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God.(D) 3 They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me.(E) 4 I have told you this, so that when their time comes you will remember(F) that I warned you about them. I did not tell you this from the beginning because I was with you,(G) 5 but now I am going to him who sent me.(H) None of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’(I) 6 Rather, you are filled with grief(J) because I have said these things. 7 But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate(K) will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.(L) 8 When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 about sin,(M) because people do not believe in me; 10 about righteousness,(N) because I am going to the Father,(O) where you can see me no longer; 11 and about judgment, because the prince of this world(P) now stands condemned.
12 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear.(Q) 13 But when he, the Spirit of truth,(R) comes, he will guide you into all the truth.(S) He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14 He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you. 15 All that belongs to the Father is mine.(T) That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”
The Disciples’ Grief Will Turn to Joy
16 Jesus went on to say, “In a little while(U) you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me.”(V)
17 At this, some of his disciples said to one another, “What does he mean by saying, ‘In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me,’(W) and ‘Because I am going to the Father’?”(X) 18 They kept asking, “What does he mean by ‘a little while’? We don’t understand what he is saying.”
19 Jesus saw that they wanted to ask him about this, so he said to them, “Are you asking one another what I meant when I said, ‘In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me’? 20 Very truly I tell you, you will weep and mourn(Y) while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy.(Z) 21 A woman giving birth to a child has pain(AA) because her time has come; but when her baby is born she forgets the anguish because of her joy that a child is born into the world. 22 So with you: Now is your time of grief,(AB) but I will see you again(AC) and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy.(AD) 23 In that day(AE) you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.(AF) 24 Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive,(AG) and your joy will be complete.(AH)
25 “Though I have been speaking figuratively,(AI) a time is coming(AJ) when I will no longer use this kind of language but will tell you plainly about my Father. 26 In that day you will ask in my name.(AK) I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf. 27 No, the Father himself loves you because you have loved me(AL) and have believed that I came from God.(AM) 28 I came from the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”(AN)
29 Then Jesus’ disciples said, “Now you are speaking clearly and without figures of speech.(AO) 30 Now we can see that you know all things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe(AP) that you came from God.”(AQ)
31 “Do you now believe?” Jesus replied. 32 “A time is coming(AR) and in fact has come when you will be scattered,(AS) each to your own home. You will leave me all alone.(AT) Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me.(AU)
33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace.(AV) In this world you will have trouble.(AW) But take heart! I have overcome(AX) the world.”
