John 16:18-20

New Matthew Bible

¹⁸ They said therefore, What is this that he says, After a while? We cannot understand what he says.

¹⁹ Jesus perceived that they wanted to question him and said to them, You enquire about this between yourselves, that I said, After a while you will not see me, and again after a while you will see me. ²⁰ Truly truly I say to you, you will weep and lament, and the world will rejoice. You will sorrow; but your sorrow will be turned to joy.
