John 16:23-28

English Standard Version

^23 (A)In that day you will ^(B)ask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(C)whatever you ask of the Father in my name, ^(D)he will give it to you. ²⁴ Until now you have asked nothing in my name. ^(E)Ask, and you will receive, ^(F)that your joy may be full.

I Have Overcome the World

²⁵ “I have said these things to you in figures of speech. ^(G)The hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures of speech but will tell you plainly about the Father. ²⁶ In that day you will ask in my name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf; ^27 (H)for the Father himself loves you, because ^(I)you have loved me and ^(J)have believed that I came from God.^{[a] 28 (K)}I came from the Father and have come into the world, and now ^(L)I am leaving the world and going to the Father.”
