John 16:1–11
16 “These things I have spoken to you, that you ashould not be made to stumble. 2 bThey will put you out of the synagogues; yes, the time is coming cthat whoever kills you will think that he offers God service. 3 And dthese things they will do 1to you because they have not known the Father nor Me. 4 But these things I have told you, that when 2the time comes, you may remember that I told you of them.
“And these things I did not say to you at the beginning, because I was with you.
5 “But now I ego away to Him who sent Me, and none of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, fsorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but gif I depart, I will send Him to you. 8 And when He has hcome, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9 iof sin, because they do not believe in Me; 10 jof righteousness, kbecause I go to My Father and you see Me no more; 11 lof judgment, because mthe ruler of this world is judged.
