16:1  “These things I have spoken to you, that you should not be made to stumble.
16:2  They will put you out of the synagogues; yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers God service.
16:3  And these things they will do to you because they have not known the Father nor Me.
16:4  But these things I have told you, that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you of them. “And these things I did not say to you at the beginning, because I was with you.
16:5  “But now I go away to Him who sent Me, and none of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going?’
16:6  But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.
16:7  Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.
16:8  And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
16:9  of sin, because they do not believe in Me;
16:10  of righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me no more;
16:11  of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.
16:12  “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.
16:13  However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.
16:14  He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.
16:15  All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you.
16:16  “A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me, because I go to the Father.”
16:17  Then some of His disciples said among themselves, “What is this that He says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’ ; and, ‘because I go to the Father’ ?”
16:18  They said therefore, “What is this that He says, ‘A little while’ ? We do not know what He is saying.”
16:19  Now Jesus knew that they desired to ask Him, and He said to them, “Are you inquiring among yourselves about what I said, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’?
16:20  Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.
16:21  A woman, when she is in labor, has sorrow because her hour has come; but as soon as she has given birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world.
16:22  Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you.
16:23  “And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you.
16:24  Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.
16:25  “These things I have spoken to you in figurative language; but the time is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figurative language, but I will tell you plainly about the Father.
16:26  In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I shall pray the Father for you;
16:27  for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me, and have believed that I came forth from God.
16:28  I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”
16:29  His disciples said to Him, “See, now You are speaking plainly, and using no figure of speech!
16:30  Now we are sure that You know all things, and have no need that anyone should question You. By this we believe that You came forth from God.”
16:31  Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?
16:32  Indeed the hour is coming, yes, has now come, that you will be scattered, each to his own, and will leave Me alone. And yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.
16:33  These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
