John 16:5–15

The Spirit Is Promised Again

⁵“But now ^aI am going to Him who sent Me; and none of you asks Me, ‘^bWhere are You going?’

⁶“But because I have said these things to you, ^asorrow has filled your heart.

⁷“But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the ^1aAdvocate will not come to you; but if I go, ^bI will send Him to you.

⁸“And He, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment;

⁹concerning sin, ^abecause they do not believe in Me;

¹⁰and concerning ^arighteousness, because ^bI go to the Father and you no longer see Me;

^11aand concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged.

¹²“I still have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.

¹³“But when He, ^athe Spirit of truth, comes, He will ^bguide you into all the truth; for He will not speak from Himself, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come.

¹⁴“He will ^aglorify Me, for He will take of Mine and will disclose it to you.

¹⁵“^aAll things that the Father has are Mine; therefore I said that He takes of Mine and will disclose it to you.
