John 15:26-16:4
Legacy Standard Bible
26 “When the [a](A)Advocate comes, (B)whom I will send to you from the Father, (C)the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, (D)He will bear witness about Me, 27 [b]and (E)you will bear witness also, because you have been with Me (F)from the beginning.
Jesus’ Warning
16 “(G)These things I have spoken to you so that you may be kept from (H)stumbling. 2 They will (I)put you out of the synagogue, but (J)an hour is coming for everyone (K)who kills you to think that he is offering service to God. 3 These things they will do (L)because they did not know the Father or Me. 4 But these things I have spoken to you, (M)so that when their hour comes, you [c]may remember that I told you of them. These things I did not say to you (N)at the beginning, because I was with you.

John 15:26-16:4
International Standard Version
26 “When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father— the Spirit of Truth, who comes from the Father—he will testify on my behalf. 27 You will testify also, because you have been with me from the beginning.
16 “I have told you this to keep you from falling away.[a] 2 You’ll be thrown out of the synagogues. Yes, a time is coming when the one who kills you will think he’s serving God. 3 They’ll do this because they haven’t known the Father or me. 4 But I’ve told you this, so that when the time comes you’ll remember that I told you about them. I didn’t tell you this in the beginning, because I was still with you.”
