John 16:16-22

Noyes(i) 16 A little while, and ye no longer behold me; and again a little while, and ye will see me. 17 Some of his disciples therefore said to one another, What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye behold me not, and again a little while, and ye will see me? and, Because I go to the Father? 18 They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? We do not know what he is speaking of. 19 Jesus knew that they were desirous of asking him, and said to them, Is it of this that ye are inquiring of one another, that I said, A little while, and ye behold me not, and again a little while, and ye will See me? 20 Truly, truly do I say to you, that ye will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; ye will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy. 21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come; but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, through joy that a man is born into the world. 22 So ye also now have sorrow; but I shall see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one taketh from you.
