John 15:26-16:7

English Standard Version

²⁶ “But ^(A)when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, ^(B)he will bear witness about me. ²⁷ And ^(C)you also will bear witness, ^(D)because you have been with me ^(E)from the beginning.

16 “I have said all these things to you to keep you from falling away. ^2 (F)They will put you out of the synagogues. Indeed, ^(G)the hour is coming when ^(H)whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God. ³ And they will do these things ^(I)because they have not known the Father, nor me. ⁴ But ^(J)I have said these things to you, that when ^(K)their hour comes you may remember that I told them to you.

The Work of the Holy Spirit

“I did not say these things to you from the beginning, ^(L)because I was with you. ⁵ But now ^(M)I am going to him who sent me, and ^(N)none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ ⁶ But because I have said these things to you, ^(O)sorrow has filled your heart. ⁷ Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for ^(P)if I do not go away, ^(Q)the Helper will not come to you. But ^(R)if ^(S)I go, ^(T)I will send him to you.
