web - John:16:17-33

web@John:16:17 @ Some of his disciples therefore said to one another, "What is this that he says to us, 'A little while, and you won't see me, and again a little while, and you will see me;' and, 'Because I go to the Father?'"

web@John:16:18 @ They said therefore, "What is this that he says, 'A little while?' We don't know what he is saying."

web@John:16:19 @ Therefore Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them, "Do you inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, 'A little while, and you won't see me, and again a little while, and you will see me?'

web@John:16:20 @ Most certainly I tell you, that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.

web@John:16:21 @ A woman, when she gives birth, has sorrow, because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she doesn't remember the anguish any more, for the joy that a human being is born into the world.

web@John:16:22 @ Therefore you now have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.

web@John:16:23 @ "In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.

web@John:16:24 @ Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.

web@John:16:25 @ I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. But the time is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father.

web@John:16:26 @ In that day you will ask in my name; and I don't say to you, that I will pray to the Father for you,

web@John:16:27 @ for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from God.

web@John:16:28 @ I came out from the Father, and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world, and go to the Father."

web@John:16:29 @ His disciples said to him, "Behold, now you speak plainly, and speak no figures of speech.

web@John:16:30 @ Now we know that you know all things, and don't need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came forth from God."

web@John:16:31 @ Jesus answered them, "Do you now believe?

web@John:16:32 @ Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

web@John:16:33 @ I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up! I have overcome the world."
