³⁵ Jesus said to them, “The light is in you^[a] for a little longer. Walk while you have the light, so that the darkness may not overtake you. If you walk in the darkness, you do not know where you are going.

⁴⁶ I have come as light into the world, so that everyone who believes in me should not remain in the darkness.^(A)

Sorrow Will Turn into Joy

¹⁶ “A little while, and you will no longer see me, and again a little while, and you will see me.”^(A)

⁶ If we say that we have fellowship with him while we are walking in darkness, we lie and do not do what is true; ⁷ but if we walk in the light as he himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.^(A)

Jesus the Light of the World

¹² Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life.”^(A)

⁸ for once you were darkness, but now in the Lord you are light. Walk as children of light,^(A)

¹⁰ But those who walk at night stumble because the light is not in them.”

³⁶ While you have the light, believe in the light, so that you may become children of light.”

The Unbelief of the People

After Jesus had said this, he departed and hid from them.^(A)

⁴ We^[a] must work the works of him who sent me^[b] while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work.^{(A) 5} As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”^(B)
