Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
16:1 | I have spoken these things to you so that you may not be offended. |
16:2 | They will put you out of the synagogue, but an hour is coming that everyone killing you will think to bear a service before God. |
16:3 | And they will do these things to you because they do not know the Father nor Me. |
16:4 | But I have spoken these things to you so that when the hour comes you may recall them, that I told you these things. But I did not say these things to you from the beginning because I was with you. |
16:5 | But now I am going to Him who sent Me. And not one of you asks Me, Where are you going? |
16:6 | But because I have said these things to you, grief has filled your heart. |
16:7 | But I tell you the truth, it is advantageous for you that I should go; for if I do not go away, the Comforter will not come to you. But if I go, I will send Him to you. |
16:8 | And when that One comes, He will convict the world concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment. |
16:9 | Concerning sin, because they do not believe into Me; |
16:10 | and concerning righteousness, because I am going to the Father, and you no longer see Me; |
16:11 | and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged. |
16:12 | I have yet many things to tell you, but you are not able to bear now. |
16:13 | But when that One comes, the Spirit of truth, He will guide you into all truth, for He will not speak from Himself, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will announce the coming things to you. |
16:14 | That One will glorify Me, for He will receive from Mine and will announce to you. |
16:15 | All things which the Father has are Mine. For this reason I said that He receives from Mine, and will announce to you. |
16:16 | A little while and you do not see Me. And again a little while , and you will see Me, because I go away to the Father. |
16:17 | Then His disciples said to one another, What is this which He says to us, A little while , and you do not see me; and again, A little and you will see Me? And, Because I go away to the Father? |
16:18 | Then they said, What is this that He says, The little? We do not know what He says. |
16:19 | Then Jesus knew that they desired to ask Him. And He said to them, Do you seek answers with one another concerning this, because I said, A little while , and you do not see Me; and again a little and you will see Me? |
16:20 | Truly, truly, I say to you that you will weep and will lament, but the world will rejoice. And you will be grieved, but your grief will become joy. |
16:21 | The woman has grief when she bears, because her hour came, but when she brings forth the child, she no longer remembers the distress, because of the joy that a man was born into the world. |
16:22 | And you, then, truly have grief now; but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one takes your joy from you. |
16:23 | And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Truly, truly, I say to you, Whatever you shall ask the Father in My name, He will give you. |
16:24 | Until now you asked nothing in My name; ask, and you will receive, so that your joy may be full. |
16:25 | I have spoken these things to you in allegories. An hour comes when I will no longer speak to you in allegories, but I will reveal the Father plainly to you. |
16:26 | In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not tell you that I will petition the Father about you; |
16:27 | for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me, and have believed that I came out from God. |
16:28 | I came out from the Father and have come into the world; I leave the world again and go to the Father. |
16:29 | His disciples said to Him, Behold, now You speak plainly and You say no allegory. |
16:30 | Now we know that You know all things and have no need that anyone question You. By this we believe that You came out from God. |
16:31 | Jesus answered them, Do you believe now? |
16:32 | Behold, an hour is coming, and now has come, that you are scattered, each one to his own things, and you will leave Me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me. |
16:33 | I have spoken these things to you that you may have peace in Me. You have distress in the world; but be encouraged, I have overcome the world. |
