These
things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not
be offended.
02 They shall put you out
of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that
whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth
God service.
03 And these things will
they do unto you, because they have not known the
Father, nor me.
04 But these things have I
told you, that when the time shall come, ye may
remember that I told you of them. And these
things I said not unto you at the beginning,
because I was with you.
05 But now I go my way to
him that sent me; and none of you asketh me,
Whither goest thou?
06 But because I have said
these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your
heart.
07 Nevertheless I tell you
the truth; It is expedient for you that I go
away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will
not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send
him unto you.
08 And when he is come, he
will reprove the world of sin, and of
righteousness, and of judgment:
09 Of sin, because they
believe not on me;
10 Of righteousness,
because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
11 Of judgment, because the
prince of this world is judged.
12 I have yet many things
to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
13 Howbeit when he, the
Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into
all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but
whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak:
and he will shew you things to come.
14 He shall glorify me: for
he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto
you.
15 All things that the
Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he
shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
16 A little while, and ye
shall not see me: and again, a little while, and
ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
17 Then said some of his disciples
among themselves, What is this that he saith unto
us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and
again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and,
Because I go to the Father?

18 They said therefore, What is this that he
saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he
saith.
19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask
him, and said unto them, Do ye
enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little
while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a
little while, and ye shall see me?
20 Verily, verily, I say
unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the
world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful,
but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
21 A woman when she is in
travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come:
but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she
remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a
man is born into the world.
22 And ye now therefore
have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your
heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh
from you.
23 And in that day ye shall
ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you,
Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he
will give it you.
24 Hitherto have ye asked
nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive,
that your joy may be full.
25 These things have I
spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh,
when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs,
but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.
26 At that day ye shall ask
in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will
pray the Father for you:
27 For the Father himself
loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have
believed that I came out from God.
28 I came forth from the
Father, and am come into the world: again, I
leave the world, and go to the Father.
29 His disciples said unto him,
Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no
proverb.
30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things,
and needest not that any man should ask thee: by
this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
31 Jesus answered them, Do ye
now believe?
32 Behold, the hour cometh,
yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered,
every man to his own, and shall leave me alone:
and yet I am not alone, because the Father is
with me.
33 These things I have
spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of
good cheer; I have overcome the world.
