American Standard Version
26 But when the [a]Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which [b]proceedeth from the Father, he shall bear witness of me: 27 [c]and ye also bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
16 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be caused to stumble. 2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh, that whosoever killeth you shall think that he offereth service unto God. 3 And these things will they do, because they have not known the Father, nor me. 4 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.
