John 16:5-11
New American Standard Bible 1995
The Holy Spirit Promised
5 “But now (A)I am going to Him who sent Me; and none of you asks Me, ‘(B)Where are You going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, (C)sorrow has filled your heart. 7 But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the [a](D)Helper will not come to you; but if I go, (E)I will send Him to you. 8 And He, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment; 9 concerning sin, (F)because they do not believe in Me; 10 and concerning (G)righteousness, because (H)I go to the Father and you no longer see Me; 11 (I)and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged.
