John:16:17-33

rwbs@John:16:17 @ Then said of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith to 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?

rwbs@John:16:18 @ They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.

rwbs@John:16:19 @ Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said to them, Do ye enquire among yourselves of that which I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?

rwbs@John:16:20 @ Verily, verily, I say to 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.

rwbs@John:16:21 @ A 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.

rwbs@John:16:22 @ And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.

rwbs@John:16:23 @ And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say to you, Whatever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give to you.

rwbs@John:16:24 @ Until now ye have asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

rwbs@John:16:25 @ These things have I spoken to you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak to you in proverbs, but I shall show you plainly concerning the Father. (note:)proverbs: or, parables(:note)

rwbs@John:16:26 @ At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not to you, that I will pray the Father for you:

rwbs@John:16:27 @ For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.

rwbs@John:16:28 @ I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.

rwbs@John:16:29 @ His disciples said to him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb. (note:)proverb: or, parable(:note)

rwbs@John:16:30 @ Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest from God.

rwbs@John:16:31 @ Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?

rwbs@John:16:32 @ Behold, the hour cometh, and, is even 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. (note:)his own: or, his own home(:note)

rwbs@John:16:33 @ These things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
