1These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.studyinterlinear

2They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.studyinterlinear

3And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.studyinterlinear

4But 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.studyinterlinear

5But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?studyinterlinear

6But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.studyinterlinear

7Nevertheless 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.studyinterlinear

8And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:studyinterlinear

9Of sin, because they believe not on me;studyinterlinear

10Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;studyinterlinear

11Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.studyinterlinear

12I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.studyinterlinear

13Howbeit 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.studyinterlinear

14He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.studyinterlinear

15All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.studyinterlinear

16A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.studyinterlinear

17Then 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?studyinterlinear

18They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.studyinterlinear

19Now 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?studyinterlinear

20Verily, 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.studyinterlinear

21A 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.studyinterlinear

22And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.studyinterlinear

23And 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.studyinterlinear

24Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.studyinterlinear

25These 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.studyinterlinear

26At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:studyinterlinear

27For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.studyinterlinear

28I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.studyinterlinear

29His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.studyinterlinear

30Now 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.studyinterlinear

31Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?studyinterlinear

32Behold, 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.studyinterlinear

33These 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.studyinterlinear
