16:1  These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not
be offended.
 16:2  They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time
cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God
service.
 16:3  And these things will they do unto you, because they
have not known the Father, nor me.
 16:4  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.
 16:5  But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you
asketh me, Whither goest thou?
 16:6  But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow
hath filled your heart.
 16:7  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.
 16:8  And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin,
and of righteousness, and of judgment:
 16:9  Of sin, because they believe not on me;
 16:10  Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see
me no more;
 16:11  Of judgment, because the prince of this world is
judged.
 16:12  I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot
bear them now.
 16:13  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 show you things to come.
 16:14  He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and
shall show [it] unto you.
 16:15  All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore
said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall show [it] unto
you.
 16:16  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.
 16:17  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?
 16:18  They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A
little while? we cannot tell what he saith.
 16:19  Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and
said unto them, Do ye inquire 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?
 16:20  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.
 16:21  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.
 16:22  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.
 16:23  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.
 16:24  Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye
shall receive, that your joy may be full.
 16:25  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 show you plainly of the Father.
 16:26  At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto
you, that I will pray the Father for you:
 16:27  For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have
loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
 16:28  I came forth from the Father, and am come into the
world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.
 16:29  His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou
plainly, and speakest no proverb.
 16:30  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.
 16:31  Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
 16:32  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.
 16:33  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.
