19Jesus saw that the followers wanted to ask him about this, so he said to them, “Are you asking each other what I meant when I said, ‘After a little while you will not see me, and then after a little while you will see me again’? 20I tell you the truth, you will cry and be sad, but the world will be happy. You will be sad, but your sadness will become joy.
