John 16

Great^{(i) 1} These thynges haue I sayde vnto you because ye shuld not be offended. ² They shall excommunicat you: ye the tyme shall come, that whosoeuer kylleth you, will thinke that he doth God seruyce. ³ And such thinges will they do vnto you, because they haue not knowen the father, nether yet me. ⁴ But these thinges haue I tolde you, that when the tyme is come, ye maye remember then that I tolde you. These thynges sayde I not vnto you at the begynninge, because I was present with you. ⁵ But now I go my waye to hym that sent me, & none of you asketh me whyther I go. ⁶ But because I haue sayd suche thynges vnto you, your hertes are ful of sorowe. ⁷ Neuertheles, I tel you the treuth, it is expedient for you, that I goo awaye. For yf I goo not awaye, that comforter wyll not come vnto you. But yf I departe, I wyll sende hym vnto you. ⁸ And when he is come, he wyll rebuke the worlde of synne, and of rightewesnes, & of iudgement. ⁹ Of synne, because they beleue not on me. ¹⁰ Of ryghtewesnes, because I go to my father, and ye shal se me nomore: ¹¹ Of iudgement, because the prynce of thys worlde is iudged all ready. ¹² I haue yet many thinges to saye vnto you but ye cannot beare them awaye now. ¹³ Howbeit when he is come (which is the sprete of treuth) he will leade you into all treuthe. He shall not speake of hym selfe: but whatsoeuer he shall heare, that shall he speake, and he will shewe you thinges to come. ¹⁴ He shal glorify me, for he shall receaue of myne, & shall shewe vnto you. ¹⁵ All thynges that the father hath, are myne. Therfore sayde I vnto you, that he shall take of myne and shewe vnto you. ¹⁶ After a while ye shall not se me, and agayne after a whyle ye shall se me: for I go to the father. ¹⁷ Then sayde some of hys discyples betwene them selues: what is thys that he saith vnto vs, after a while, ye shall not se me, and agayne after a whyle ye shall se me: and that I go to the father? ¹⁸ They sayd therfore: what is this that he sayth: after a whyle? we cannot tell what he sayth. ¹⁹ Iesus perceaued, that they wolde aske him, and sayde vnto them. Ye enquire of this betwene your selues, because I sayde after a whyle ye shal not se me, & agayne after a whyle ye shall se me. ²⁰ Uerely verely, I saye vnto you: ye shall wepe and lamente, but contrary wyse, the world shall reioyse. Ye shall sorowe, but yor sorowe shalbe turned to ioye. ²¹ A woman when she trauaileth, hath sorowe, because her houre is come: but assone as she is deliuered of the childe, she remembreth nomore the anguisshe, for ioye that a man is borne into the worlde. ²² And ye now therfore haue sorowe: but I will se you agayne, and your hertes shall reioyse, and your ioye shal no man take from you. ²³ And in the daye shall ye aske me no question. Uerely verely, I saye vnto you: whatsoeuer ye shall aske the father in my name, he wyll geue it you. ²⁴ Hytherto haue ye asked nothynge in my name. Aske, and ye shall receaue: that youre ioye maye be full. ²⁵ These thinges haue I spoken vnto you by prouerbes. The tyme will come, when I shal nomore speake vnto you by prouerbes: but I shall shewe you playnely from my father. ²⁶ At that daye shall ye aske in my name. And I saye not vnto you that I will speake vnto my father for you. ²⁷ For the father him selfe loueth you, because ye haue loued me, and haue beleued, that I came out from God. ²⁸ I went out from the father, and came into the worlde. Agayne, I leaue the worlde, and go to the father. ²⁹ His disciples sayd vnto him: lo, now talkest thou playnly, and speakest no prouerbe. ³⁰ Nowe are we sure, that thou knowest all thinges, and nedest not, that eny man shulde aske the any question. Therfore beleue we, that thou camest from God. ³¹ Iesus answered them: Now ye do beleue. ³² Behold, the houre draweth nye, and is all ready come, that ye shalbe scatered euery man to his awne, & shal leaue me alone. And yet am I not alone. For the father is with me. ³³ These wordes haue I spoken vnto you, that in me ye myghte haue peace. For in the worlde shall ye haue tribulacyon: but be of good chere, I haue ouercome the worlde.
