WYC

NIV

1 These things I have spoken to you, that ye be not caused to stumble [that ye be not offended].
1 “All this I have told you so that you will not fall away.
2 They shall make you without the synagogues, but the hour cometh, that each man that slayeth you, deem that he doeth service to God.
2 They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God.
3 And they shall do to you these things, for they have not known the Father, neither me.
3 They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me.
4 But these things I spake to you, that when the hour of them shall come, ye have mind, that I said to you. I said not to you these things from the beginning, for I was with you.
4 I have told you this, so that when their time comes you will remember that I warned you about them. I did not tell you this from the beginning because I was with you,
5 And now I go to him that sent me, and no man of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?
5 but now I am going to him who sent me. None of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’
6 but for I have spoken to you these things, heaviness hath full-filled your heart [sorrow, or heaviness, hath full-filled your heart].
6 Rather, you are filled with grief because I have said these things.
7 But I say to you truth, it speedeth to you, that I go; for if I go not forth [soothly if I shall not go away], the comforter shall not come to you; but if I go forth [forsooth if I shall go away], I shall send him to you.
7 But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.
8 And when he cometh [And when he shall come], he shall reprove the world of sin, and of rightwiseness, and of doom.
8 When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment:
9 Of sin, for they have not believed in me;
9 about sin, because people do not believe in me;
10 and of rightwiseness, for I go to the Father, and now ye shall not see me;
10 about righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer;
11 but of doom, for the prince of this world is now deemed.
11 and about judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned.
12 Yet I have many things to say to you, but ye be not able to bear them now.
12 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear.
13 But when the Spirit of truth cometh [shall come], he shall teach you all truth; for he shall not speak of himself, but whatever things he shall hear, he shall speak; and he shall tell to you those things [and he shall tell to you the things] that be to come.
13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.
14 He shall clarify me, for of mine he shall take, and shall tell to you.
14 He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you.
15 All things, whatever [things] the Father hath, be mine; therefore I said to you, that of mine he shall take, and shall tell to you.
15 All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”
16 A little, and then ye shall not see me; and again a little, and ye shall see me, for I go to the Father.
16 Jesus went on to say, “In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me.”
17 Therefore some of his disciples said together, What is this thing that he saith to us, A little, and ye shall not see me; and again a little, and ye shall see me, for I go to the Father?
17 At this, some of his disciples said to one another, “What does he mean by saying, ‘In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me,’ and ‘Because I am going to the Father’?”
18 Therefore they said, What is this that he saith to us, A little? we know not what he speaketh.
18 They kept asking, “What does he mean by ‘a little while’? We don’t understand what he is saying.”
19 And Jesus knew, that they would ask him, and he said to them, Of this thing ye seek among you, for I said, A little, and ye shall not see me; and again a little, and ye shall see me.
19 Jesus saw that they wanted to ask him about this, so he said to them, “Are you asking one another what I meant when I said, ‘In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me’?
20 Truly, truly, I say to you, that ye shall mourn and weep, but the world shall have joy; and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall turn into joy.
20 Very truly I tell you, you will weep and mourn while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy.
21 A woman when she beareth child, hath heaviness [hath sorrow, or heaviness], for her time is come; but when she hath born a son, now she thinketh not on the pain, for joy, for a man is born into the world.
21 A woman giving birth to a child has pain because her time has come; but when her baby is born she forgets the anguish because of her joy that a child is born into the world.
22 And therefore ye have now sorrow, but again I shall see you, and your heart shall have joy, and no man shall take from you your joy.
22 So with you: Now is your time of grief, but I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy.
23 And in that day ye shall not ask me any thing; truly, truly, I say to you, if ye ask the Father any thing in my name, he shall give [it] to you.
23 In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.
24 Till now ye asked nothing in my name; ask ye, and ye shall take, that your joy be full.
24 Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.
25 I have spoken to you these things in proverbs; the hour cometh, when now I shall not speak to you in proverbs, but openly of my Father I shall tell to you [I shall tell you].
25 “Though I have been speaking figuratively, a time is coming when I will no longer use this kind of language but will tell you plainly about my Father.
26 In that day ye shall ask in my name; and I say not to you, that I shall pray the Father for you;
26 In that day you will ask in my name. I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf.
27 for the Father himself loveth you, for ye have loved me, and have believed, that I went out from God.
27 No, the Father himself loves you because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.
28 I went out from the Father, and I came into the world; again I leave the world, and go to the Father.
28 I came from the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”
29 His disciples said to him, Lo! now thou speakest openly, and thou sayest no proverb.
29 Then Jesus’ disciples said, “Now you are speaking clearly and without figures of speech.
30 Now we know, that thou knowest all things; and it is not need to thee [and it is no need to thee], that any man ask thee. In this thing we believe, that thou wentest out from God.
30 Now we can see that you know all things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe that you came from God.”
31 Jesus answered to them, Now ye believe.
31 “Do you now believe?” Jesus replied.
32 Lo! the hour cometh, and now it cometh, that ye be scattered, each into his own things, and that ye leave me alone; and I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
32 “A time is coming and in fact has come when you will be scattered, each to your own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me.
33 These things I have spoken to you, that ye have peace in me; in the world ye shall have dis-ease [in the world ye shall have pressing, or overlaying], but trust ye, I have overcome the world.
33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
