1 | These things have I spoken to you, that you may not be scandalized. |
2 | They will put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh, that whosoever killeth you, will think that he doth a service to God. |
3 | And these things will they do to you; because they have not known the Father, nor me. |
4 | But these things I have told you, that when the hour shall come, you may remember that I told you of them. |
5 | But I told you not these things from the beginning, because I was with you. And now I go to him that sent me, and none of you asketh me: Whither goest thou? |
6 | But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow hath filled your heart. |
7 | But I tell you the truth: it is expedient to you that I go: for if I go not, the Paraclete will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. |
8 | And when he is come, he will convince the world of sin, and of justice, and of judgment. |
9 | Of sin: because they believed not in me. |
10 | And of justice: because I go to the Father; and you shall see me no longer. |
11 | And of judgment: because the prince of this world is already judged. |
12 | I have yet many things to say to you: but you cannot bear them now. |
13 | But when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will teach you all truth. For he shall not speak of himself; but what things soever he shall hear, he shall speak; and the things that are to come, he shall shew you. |
14 | He shall glorify me; because he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it to you. |
15 | All things whatsoever the Father hath, are mine. Therefore I said, that he shall receive of mine, and shew it to you. |
16 | A little while, and now you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me: because I go to the Father. |
17 | Then some of the disciples said one to another: What is this that he saith to us: A little while, and you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me, and, because I go to the Father? |
18 | They said therefore: What is this that he saith, A little while? we know not what he speaketh. |
19 | And Jesus knew that they had a mind to ask him; and he said to them: Of this do you inquire among yourselves, because I said: A little while, and you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me? |
20 | Amen, amen I say to you, that you shall lament and weep, but the world shall rejoice; and you shall be made sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. |
21 | A woman, when she is in labour, hath sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she hath brought forth the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. |
22 | So also you now indeed have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice; and your joy no man shall take from you. |
23 | And in that day you shall not ask me any thing. Amen, amen I say to you: if you ask the Father any thing in my name, he will give it you. |
24 | Hitherto you have not asked any thing in my name. Ask, and you shall receive; that your joy may be full. |
25 | These things I have spoken to you in proverbs. The hour cometh, when I will no more speak to you in proverbs, but will shew you plainly of the Father. |
26 | In that day you shall ask in my name; and I say not to you, that I will ask the Father for you: |
27 | For the Father himself loveth you, because you 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 I go to the Father. |
29 | His disciples say to him: Behold, now thou speakest plainly, and speakest no proverb. |
30 | Now we know that thou knowest all things, and thou needest not that any man should ask thee. By this we believe that thou camest forth from God. |
31 | Jesus answered them: Do you now believe? |
32 | Behold, the hour cometh, and it is now come, that you 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 to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you shall have distress: but have confidence, I have overcome the world. |
