John 16:1–15

¹These things I have spoken unto you that ye may not be offended. ²They shall put you out of the synagogues; but the hour is coming that every one who kills you will think to render service to God; ³and these things they will do because they have not known the Father nor me. ⁴But I have spoken these things to you, that when their hour shall have come, ye may remember them, that I have said them unto you. But I did not say these things unto you from the beginning, because I was with you. ⁵But now I go to him that has sent me, and none of you demands of me, Where goest thou? ⁶But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.

⁷But I say the truth to you, It is profitable for you that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I go I will send him to you. ⁸And having come, he will bring demonstration to the world, of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: ⁹of sin, because they do not believe on me; ¹⁰of righteousness, because I go away to my Father, and ye behold me no longer; ¹¹of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged. ¹²I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now. ¹³But when he is come, the Spirit of truth, he shall guide you into all the truth: for he shall not speak from himself; but whatsoever he shall hear he shall speak; and he will announce to you what is coming. ¹⁴He shall glorify me, for he shall receive of mine and shall announce it to you. ¹⁵All things that the Father has are mine; on account of this I have said that he receives of mine and shall announce it to you.
