John 16:1-7

1 "I have said all these things to you to keep you from falling away.

2 ¹They will put you out of the synagogues. Indeed, ²the hour is coming when ³whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God.

3 And they will do these things ⁴because they have not known the Father, nor me.

4 But ⁵I have said these things to you, that when ⁶their hour comes you may remember that I told them to you. "I did not say these things to you from the beginning, ⁷because I was with you.

5 But now ⁸I am going to him who sent me, and ⁹none of you asks me, 'Where are you going?'

6 But because I have said these things to you, ¹⁰sorrow has filled your heart.

7 Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for ¹¹if I do not go away, ¹²the Helper will not come to you. But ¹³if ¹⁴I go, ¹⁵I will send him to you.
