John 16:16-22

LITV(i) 16 A little while and you do not see Me. And again a little while, and you will see Me, because I go away to the Father. 17 Then His disciples said to one another, What is this which He says to us, A little while, and you do not see me; and again, A little and you will see Me? And, Because I go away to the Father? 18 Then they said, What is this that He says, The little? We do not know what He says. 19 Then Jesus knew that they desired to ask Him. And He said to them, Do you seek answers with one another concerning this, because I said, A little while, and you do not see Me; and again a little and you will see Me? 20 Truly, truly, I say to you that you will weep and will lament, but the world will rejoice. And you will be grieved, but your grief will become joy. 21 The woman has grief when she bears, because her hour came, but when she brings forth the child, she no longer remembers the distress, because of the joy that a man was born into the world. 22 And you, then, truly have grief now; but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one takes your joy from you.
