16  I have told laleō you hymeis these houtos things so hina that you will not fall skandalizō away . They will put poieō you hymeis out aposynagōgos of the synagogues ; indeed alla, the hour hōra is coming erchomai when hina anyone pas who ho kills apokteinō you hymeis will think dokeō he is offering prospherō a service latreia to ho God theos. And kai these houtos things they will do poieō because hoti they have not ou known ginōskō the ho Father patēr nor oude me egō. But alla I have said laleō these houtos things to you hymeis so hina that when hotan their autos hour hōra comes erchomai · ho you will remember mnēmoneuō that hoti I egō told legō you hymeis about legō them autos. “ I did legō not ou tell legō you hymeis these houtos things · de at ek the start archē because hoti I was eimi with meta you hymeis. But de now nyn I am going hypagō away to pros the ho one who sent pempō me egō, and kai none oudeis of ek you hymeis asks erōtaō me egō, ‘ Where pou are you going hypagō?’ But alla because hoti I have told laleō you hymeis these houtos things , · ho sorrow lypē has filled plēroō your hymeis · ho heart kardia. Nevertheless alla I egō am telling legō you hymeis the ho truth alētheia; it is to your hymeis advantage sympherō that hina I egō am going aperchomai away . For gar if ean I do not go aperchomai away , the ho Paraclete paraklētos will not ou come erchomai to pros you hymeis; but de if ean I go poreuō away , I will send pempō him autos to pros you hymeis. And kai he ekeinos, when he comes erchomai, will convict elenchō the ho world kosmos in peri regard to sin hamartia and kai righteousness dikaiosynē and kai judgment krisis: in regard peri to sin hamartia, because hoti they do not ou believe pisteuō in eis me egō; 10 in peri regard to righteousness dikaiosynē, · de because hoti I am going away hypagō to pros the ho Father patēr, and kai you will see theōreō me egō no ouketi longer ; 11 in peri regard to · de judgment krisis, because hoti the ho ruler archōn of ho this houtos world kosmos has been condemned krinō.

12  I have echō many polys more eti things to say legō to you hymeis, but alla you cannot ou bear bastazō them now arti. 13 But de when hotan he ekeinos, the ho Spirit pneuma of ho truth alētheia, comes erchomai, he will guide hodēgeō you hymeis into en · ho all pas truth alētheia, for gar he will not ou speak laleō on apo his own heautou, but alla will speak laleō only what hosos he hears akouō, and kai he will tell anangellō you hymeis things ho yet to come erchomai. 14 He ekeinos will glorify doxazō me egō, for hoti he will receive lambanō what is mine ek · ho and kai tell anangellō it to you hymeis. 15 All pas that hosos the ho Father patēr has echō is eimi mine emos; that is why dia I said legō that hoti he will take lambanō what is mine ek · ho and kai declare anangellō it to you hymeis.

16 “A little mikros while and kai you will no ouketi longer see theōreō me egō, and kai again palin a little mikros while and kai you will see horaō me egō.” 17 Some ek of ho his autos disciples mathētēs therefore oun said legō to pros one allēlōn another , “ What tis is eimi this houtos that hos he is saying legō to us hēmeis, ‘A little mikros while and kai you will not ou see theōreō me egō, and kai again palin a little mikros while and kai you will see horaō me egō and kai, ‘ Because hoti I am going hypagō to pros the ho Father patēr’?” 18 So oun they kept saying legō, “ What tis is eimi this houtos little while mikros of which hos he speaks legō? · ho We do not ou understand oida what tis he is talking laleō about .” 19 Jesus Iēsous knew ginōskō · ho that hoti they wanted thelō to question erōtaō him autos, so kai he said legō to them autos, “ Are you deliberating zēteō with meta one another allēlōn about peri this houtos that hoti I said legō, ‘A little mikros while and kai you will not ou see theōreō me egō, and kai again palin a little mikros while and kai you will see horaō me egō’? 20 I tell legō you hymeis the solemn truth amēn, you hymeis will weep klaiō and kai wail thrēneō, and de the ho world kosmos will rejoice chairō; you hymeis will be sorrowful lypeō, but alla · ho your hymeis sorrow lypē will be ginomai turned into eis joy chara. 21 When hotan a ho woman gynē is giving birth tiktō, she has echō sorrow lypē because hoti her autos hour hōra has come erchomai; · ho but de when hotan the ho baby paidion is born gennaō, she no ouketi longer remembers mnēmoneuō the ho anguish thlipsis, because dia of the ho joy chara that hoti a child anthrōpos has been born gennaō into eis the ho world kosmos. 22 · kai So oun for now nyn you hymeis have echō sorrow lypē; but de I will see horaō you hymeis again palin, and kai your hymeis heart kardia will rejoice chairō, · ho and kai no one oudeis will take airō · ho your hymeis joy chara from apo you hymeis. 23 · kai On en that ekeinos · ho day hēmera you will question erōtaō me egō about erōtaō nothing oudeis. I tell legō you hymeis the solemn truth amēn: whatever an tis you ask aiteō of the ho Father patēr in en · ho my egō name onoma he will give didōmi to you hymeis. 24 Up till heōs now arti you have asked aiteō for nothing oudeis in en · ho my egō name onoma. Ask aiteō, and kai you will receive lambanō, that hina · ho your hymeis joy chara may be eimi complete plēroō.

25  I have told laleō you hymeis these houtos things using en veiled paroimia language . The hour hōra is coming erchomai when hote I will laleō no ouketi longer speak laleō to you hymeis in en veiled paroimia language but alla will tell apangellō you hymeis plainly parrēsia about peri the ho Father patēr. 26 In en that ekeinos · ho day hēmera you will ask aiteō in en · ho my egō name onoma. · kai I am not ou saying legō to you hymeis that hoti I egō will intercede erōtaō with the ho Father patēr on your hymeis behalf peri; 27 for gar the ho Father patēr himself autos loves phileō you hymeis, because hoti you hymeis have loved phileō me egō and kai have come to believe pisteuō that hoti I egō came forth exerchomai from para · ho God theos. 28 I came exerchomai forth from para the ho Father patēr and kai have entered erchomai into eis the ho world kosmos; now palin I am leaving aphiēmi the ho world kosmos and kai going poreuō back to pros the ho Father patēr.”

29 His autos disciples mathētēs said legō, · ho Ah ide, now nyn you are speaking laleō plainly en parrēsia and kai not oudeis using legō veiled paroimia language ! 30 Now nyn we know oida that hoti you know oida all pas things and kai have echō no ou need chreia for hina anyone tis to question erōtaō you sy. This is why en we believe pisteuō that hoti you have come forth exerchomai from apo God theos.” 31 Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai them autos, “ Do you now arti believe pisteuō? 32 Behold idou, the hour hōra is coming erchomai, indeed kai it has come erchomai, when hina you will be scattered, each hekastos to eis · ho his idios own place, and you will leave aphiēmi me kagō alone monos. And kai yet I am eimi not ou alone monos, because hoti the ho Father patēr is eimi with meta me egō. 33 I have told laleō you hymeis these houtos things so hina that in en me egō you may have echō peace eirēnē. In en the ho world kosmos you will have echō tribulation thlipsis, but alla take courage tharseō, I egō have conquered nikaō the ho world kosmos.”

16 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be caused to stumble. They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh, that whosoever killeth you shall think that he offereth service unto God. And these things will they do, because they have not known the Father, nor me. But these things have I spoken unto you, that when their hour is come, ye may remember them, how that I told you. And these things I said not unto you from the beginning, because I was with you. But now I go unto him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou? But because I have spoken these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart. Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is expedient for you that I go away; for if I go not away, the [a]Comforter will not come unto you; but if I go, I will send him unto you. And he, when he is come, will convict the world in respect of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: of sin, because they believe not on me; 10 of righteousness, because I go to the Father, and ye behold me no more; 11 of judgment, because the prince of this world hath been judged. 12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. 13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he shall guide you into all the truth: for he shall not speak from himself; but what things soever he shall hear, these shall he speak: and he shall declare unto you the things that are to come. 14 He shall glorify me: for he shall take of mine, and shall declare it unto you. 15 All things whatsoever the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he taketh of mine, and shall declare it unto you. 16 A little while, and ye behold me no more; and again a little while, and ye shall see me. 17 Some of his disciples therefore said one to another, What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye behold me not; and again a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father? 18 They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? We know not what he saith. 19 Jesus perceived that they were desirous to ask him, and he said unto them, Do ye inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, A little while, and ye behold me not, and again a little while, and ye shall see me? 20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, that ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. 21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but when she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for the joy that a man is born into the world. 22 And ye therefore now have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one taketh away from you. 23 And in that day ye shall [b]ask me no question. Verily, verily, I say unto you, If ye shall ask anything of the Father, he will give it you in my name. 24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be made full.

25 These things have I spoken unto you in [c]dark sayings: the hour cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in dark sayings, but shall tell you plainly of the Father. 26 In that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will [d]pray the Father for you; 27 for the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from the Father. 28 I came out from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go unto the Father. 29 His disciples say, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no [e]dark saying. 30 Now know we that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God. 31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? 32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. 33 These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye may have peace. In the world ye have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
