John 16 - UPDV Updated Bible Version

^16:1 These things I have spoken to you⁺, that you⁺ should not be caused to stumble.
^16:2 They will put you⁺ out of the synagogues: yes, the hour comes, that whoever kills you⁺ will think that he offers service to God.
^16:3 And these things they will do, because they haven't known the Father, nor me.
^16:4 But these things I have spoken to you⁺, that when their hour has come, you⁺ may remember them, how that I told you⁺. And these things I didn't say to you⁺ from the beginning, because I was with you⁺.
^16:5 But now I go to him who sent me; and none of you⁺ asks me, Where do you go?
^16:6 But because I have spoken these things to you⁺, sorrow has filled your⁺ heart.
^16:7 Nevertheless I tell you⁺ the truth: It is expedient for you⁺ that I go away; for if I don't go away, the Supporter will not come to you⁺; but if I go, I will send him to you⁺.
^16:8 And he, when he has come, will convict the world in respect of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
^16:9 of sin, because they do not believe on me;
^16:10 of righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you⁺ see me no more;
^16:11 of judgment, because the prince of this world has been judged.
^16:12 I have yet many things to say to you⁺, but you⁺ can't bear them now.
^16:13 Nevertheless when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you⁺ into all the truth: for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he will hear, he will speak: and he will declare to you⁺ the things that are to come.
^16:14 He will glorify me: for he will take of mine, and will declare [it] to you⁺.
^16:15 All things that the Father has are mine: therefore I said, that he takes of mine, and will declare [it] to you⁺.
^16:16 A little while, and you⁺ see me no more; and again a little while, and you⁺ will see me.
^16:17 [Some] of his disciples therefore said one to another, What is this that he says to us, A little while, and you⁺ don't see me; and again a little while, and you⁺ will see me: and, Because I go to the Father?
^16:18 They said therefore, What is this that he says, A little while? We don't know what he says.
^16:19 Jesus perceived that they were desirous to ask him, and he said to them, Do you⁺ inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, A little while, and you⁺ don't see me, and again a little while, and you⁺ will see me?
^16:20 Truly, truly, I say to you⁺, that you⁺ will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice: you⁺ will be sorrowful, but your⁺ sorrow will be turned into joy.
^16:21 A woman when she is in travail has sorrow, because her hour has come: but when she is delivered of the child, she remembers no more the anguish, for the joy that a man is born into the world.
^16:22 And you⁺ therefore now have sorrow: but I will see you⁺ again, and your⁺ heart will rejoice, and your⁺ joy no one takes away from you⁺.
^16:23 And in that day you⁺ will ask me no question. Truly, truly, I say to you⁺, If you⁺ will ask anything of the Father in my name, he will give it you⁺.
^16:24 Until now have you⁺ asked nothing in my name: ask, and you⁺ will receive, that your⁺ joy may be made full.
^16:25 These things I have spoken to you⁺ in dark sayings: the hour comes, when I will no more speak to you⁺ in dark sayings, but will tell you⁺ plainly of the Father.
^16:26 In that day you⁺ will ask in my name: and I don't say to you⁺, that I will pray the Father for you⁺;
^16:27 for the Father himself loves you⁺, because you⁺ have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from God.
^16:28 I came out from the Father, and have come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.
^16:29 His disciples say, Look, now you speak plainly, and speak no dark saying.
^16:30 Now we know that you know all things, and don't need that any man should ask you: by this we believe that you came forth from God.
^16:31 Jesus answered them, Do you⁺ now believe?
^16:32 Look, the hour comes, yes, has come, that you⁺ will be scattered, every man to his own, and will leave me alone: and [yet] I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
^16:33 These things I have spoken to you⁺, that in me you⁺ may have peace. In the world you⁺ have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
