¹ These things, have I spoken unto you, that ye may not be caused to stumble:² Excommunicants from the synagogue, will they make you; Nay! there cometh an hour, that, every one who killeth you, shall think to be rendering, divine service, unto God!³ And, these things, will they do, because they got to know, neither the Father nor me.⁴ But, these things, have I told you, - That, whensoever their hour shall come, ye may remember, that, thereof, I told you. These things, however, I told you not, from the beginning, because I was, with you;⁵ But, now, I go my way unto him that sent me, and, not one from among you, questioneth me - Whither goest thou?⁶ But, because, these things, I have told you, sorrow, hath filled your heart.

⁷ But, I, the truth, am telling you - It is profitable for you, that, I, depart; for, if I should not depart, The Advocate, would in nowise come unto you, but, if I go, I will send him unto you.⁸ And, having come, He, will reprove the world - Concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment:⁹ Concerning sin, indeed, because they are not believing on me;¹⁰ But, concerning righteousness, because, unto the Father, I go my way, and, no longer, do ye behold me;¹¹ And, concerning judgment, because, the ruler of this world, hath been judged.¹² Yet many things, have I, unto you, to be saying, - but ye cannot bear them, just now;¹³ Howbeit, as soon as, he, hath come - The Spirit of truth, he will guide you into all truth; for he will not speak from himself, but, whatsoever he heareth, he will speak, and, the coming things, will he announce unto you.¹⁴ He, shall glorify me; for, of mine, shall he receive, and announce unto you.¹⁵ All things, whatsoever the Father hath, are, my own; therefore, said I - Of mine, shall he receive, and announce unto you.

¹⁶ A little while, and, no longer, ye behold me; and, again a little while, and ye shall see me.¹⁷ Some of his disciples, therefore, said one to another - What is this which he is saying to us: - A little while, and ye behold me not, and, again a little while, and ye shall see me; and - Because I go my way unto the Father?¹⁸ They were saying, therefore - What is this which he saith: - A little while? We know not what he is saying.¹⁹ Jesus took note, that they were wishing to question him, and said unto them - Concerning this, are ye enquiring one with another, - because I said: - A little while, and ye behold me not, and, again, a little while, and ye shall see me?²⁰ Verily, verily, I say unto you - Ye, shall weep and lament, but, the world, shall rejoice: Ye, shall be grieved, but, your grief, into joy, shall be turned.²¹ A woman, as soon as she is about to bring forth, hath, grief, because her hour hath come; but, as soon as she hath given birth to the child, no longer, remembereth she the anguish, by reason of the joy, that a human being into the world hath been born.²² And, ye, therefore, now, indeed have grief; but, again, will I see you, and your heart shall rejoice, - and, your joy, no one, shall force from you.

²³ And, in that day, shall ye request me, nothing: - Verily, verily, I say unto you - Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father, He will give you, in my name.²⁴ Until even now, ye have asked nothing in my name: Be asking, and ye shall receive, - that, your joy, may be made full.²⁵ These things, in similitudes, have I spoken unto you: There cometh an hour, when, no longer in similitudes, will I speak unto you, but, openly, concerning the Father, will I tell you.²⁶ In that day, In my name, shall ye ask: - and I say not that, I, will request the Father for you;²⁷ For, the Father himself, dearly loveth you, because, ye, have dearly loved me, and believed that, I, from the Father, came forth: -

²⁸ I came forth out of the Father, and have come into the world, - Again, I leave the world, and go, unto the Father.²⁹ His disciples say - See! now, openly, art thou speaking, and, not a single similitude, art thou using:³⁰ Now, we know, that thou knowest all things, and hast, no need, that one be questioning thee. Hereby, do we believe, that, from God, thou camest forth.³¹ Jesus answered them - As yet, ye believe:³² Lo! there cometh an hour, and hath come, that ye should be scattered, each, unto his own home; and, me, alone, should leave; - And yet I am not, alone, but, the Father, is, with me!³³ These things, have I spoken unto you, that, in me, ye may have, peace: In the world, ye have, tribulation; but be taking courage, - I, have overcome the world.
