John 16:1-19

ACV(i) 1 I have spoken these things to you, so that ye may not be caused to stumble. 2 They will make you excommunicated from the synagogues. But the hour comes that every man who kills you will presume to be offering service to God. 3 And they will do these things, because they have not known the Father nor me. 4 But I have told you these things, so that when the hour comes, ye may remember that I told you of them. But I did not tell you these things from the beginning because I was with you. 5 But now I go to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, Where do thou go? 6 But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I depart, for if I do not depart, the helper will not come to you. But whenever I go, I will send him to you. 8 And having come, that will convict the world about sin, and about justice, and about judgment. 9 About sin because they truly did not believe in me, 10 and about justice because I go to the Father, and ye see me no more, 11 and about judgment because the ruler of this world has been judged. 12 I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now. 13 However when that, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. For he will not speak from himself, but as many things as he may hear, he will speak. And he will report to you the things that are coming. 14 He will glorify me because he will receive from me, and will report to you. 15 All things, as many as the Father has are mine. Because of this I said that he takes from me, and will report to you. 16 A little while, and ye do not see me. Again a little while, and ye will look at me, because I go to the Father. 17 Therefore some of his disciples said among themselves, What is this that he says to us, A little while, and ye do not see me, and, Again a little while, and ye will look at me, and, Because I go to the Father? 18 They said therefore What is this that he says, A little while? We know not what he says. 19 Therefore Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them, Do ye inquire among yourselves about this, because I said, A little while, and ye do not see me, and, Again a little while, and ye will look at me?
