16:19 Jesus perceived1 that they were desirous to ask him, and he said unto them, Do ye inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, A little while, and ye behold me not, and again a little while, and ye shall see me?
16:20 Verily, verily1, I say unto you, that ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy2.
16:21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow1, because her hour is come: but when she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for the joy that a man is born into the world.
16:22 And ye therefore now have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one taketh away from you1.
16:23 And in that day ye shall ask me no question1. Verily, verily2, I say unto you, if ye shall ask anything of the Father, he will give it you in my name3.
16:24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name1: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be made full.
16:25 These things have I spoken unto you in dark sayings: the hour cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in dark sayings, 1but shall tell you plainly of the Father.
16:26 In that day ye shall ask in my name1: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you;
16:27 for the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from the Father1.
16:28 I came out from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go unto the Father1.
16:29 His disciples say, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no dark saying1.
16:30 Now know we that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
16:32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is come1, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone2: and [yet] I am not alone, because the Father is with me3.
16:33 These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye may have peace1. In the world ye have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
