1 T hese things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be caused to stumble.

`These things I have spoken to you, that ye may not be stumbled,

2 T hey shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh, that whosoever killeth you shall think that he offereth service unto God.

out of the synagogues they will put you; but an hour doth come, that every one who hath killed you, may think to offer service unto God;

3 A nd these things will they do, because they have not known the Father, nor me.

and these things they will do to you, because they did not know the Father, nor me.

4 B ut these things have I spoken unto you, that when their hour is come, ye may remember them, how that I told you. And these things I said not unto you from the beginning, because I was with you.

`But these things I have spoken to you, that when the hour may come, ye may remember them, that I said to you, and these things to you from the beginning I did not say, because I was with you;

5 B ut now I go unto him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?

and now I go away to Him who sent me, and none of you doth ask me, Whither dost thou go?

6 B ut because I have spoken these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

but because these things I have said to you, the sorrow hath filled your heart.

7 N evertheless 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 go, I will send him unto you.

`But I tell you the truth; it is better for you that I go away, for if I may not go away, the Comforter will not come unto you, and if I go on, I will send Him unto you;

8 A nd he, when he is come, will convict the world in respect of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

and having come, He will convict the world concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment;

9 o f sin, because they believe not on me;

concerning sin indeed, because they do not believe in me;

10 o f righteousness, because I go to the Father, and ye behold me no more;

and concerning righteousness, because unto my Father I go away, and no more do ye behold me;

11 o f judgment, because the prince of this world hath been judged.

and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world hath been judged.

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

`I have yet many things to say to you, but ye are not able to bear now;

13 H owbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he shall guide you into all the truth: for he shall not speak from himself; but what things soever he shall hear, these shall he speak: and he shall declare unto you the things that are to come.

and when He may come -- the Spirit of truth -- He will guide you to all the truth, for He will not speak from Himself, but as many things as He will hear He will speak, and the coming things He will tell you;

14 H e shall glorify me: for he shall take of mine, and shall declare it unto you.

He will glorify me, because of mine He will take, and will tell to you.

15 A ll things whatsoever the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he taketh of mine, and shall declare it unto you.

`All things, as many as the Father hath, are mine; because of this I said, That of mine He will take, and will tell to you;

16 A little while, and ye behold me no more; and again a little while, and ye shall see me.

a little while, and ye do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go away unto the Father.'

17 S ome of his disciples therefore said one to another, What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye behold me not; and again a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?

Therefore said of his disciples one to another, `What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me, and, Because I go away unto the Father?'

18 T hey said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? We know not what he saith.

they said then, `What is this he saith -- the little while? we have not known what he saith.'

19 J esus perceived that they were desirous to ask him, and he said unto them, Do ye inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, A little while, and ye behold me not, and again a little while, and ye shall see me?

Jesus, therefore, knew that they were wishing to ask him, and he said to them, `Concerning this do ye seek one with another, because I said, A little while, and you do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me?

20 V erily, verily, I say unto you, that ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

verily, verily, I say to you, that ye shall weep and lament, and the world will rejoice; and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow joy will become.

21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but when she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for the joy that a man is born into the world.

`The woman, when she may bear, hath sorrow, because her hour did come, and when she may bear the child, no more doth she remember the anguish, because of the joy that a man was born to the world.

22 A nd ye therefore now have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one taketh away from you.

`And ye, therefore, now, indeed, have sorrow; and again I will see you, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one doth take from you,

23 A nd in that day ye shall ask me no question. Verily, verily, I say unto you, if ye shall ask anything of the Father, he will give it you in my name.

and in that day ye will question me nothing; verily, verily, I say to you, as many things as ye may ask of the Father in my name, He will give you;

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

till now ye did ask nothing in my name; ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

25 T hese things have I spoken unto you in dark sayings: the hour cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in dark sayings, but shall tell you plainly of the Father.

`These things in similitudes I have spoken to you, but there cometh an hour when no more in similitudes will I speak to you, but freely of the Father, will tell you.

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

`In that day, in my name ye will make request, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father for you,

27 f or the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from the Father.

for the Father himself doth love you, because me ye have loved, and ye have believed that I from God came forth;

28 I came out from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go unto the Father.

I came forth from the Father, and have come to the world; again I leave the world, and go on unto the Father.'

29 H is disciples say, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no dark saying.

His disciples say to him, `Lo, now freely thou dost speak, and no similitude speakest thou;

30 N ow know we that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.

now we have known that thou hast known all things, and hast no need that any one do question thee; in this we believe that from God thou didst come forth.'

31 J esus answered them, Do ye now believe?

Jesus answered them, `Now do ye believe? lo, there doth come an hour,

32 B ehold, the hour cometh, yea, is 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.

and now it hath come, that ye may be scattered, each to his own things, and me ye may leave alone, and I am not alone, because the Father is with me;

33 T hese things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye may have peace. In the world ye have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

these things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace, in the world ye shall have tribulation, but take courage -- I have overcome the world.'
