John 16:25-33

Common English Bible CEB

25 "I've been using figures of speech with you. The time is coming when I will no longer speak to you in such analogies. Instead, I will tell you plainly about the Father.

26 In that day you will ask in my name. I'm not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf.

27 The Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and believed that I came from God.

28 I left the Father and came into the world. I tell you again: I am leaving the world and returning to the Father."

29 His disciples said, "See! Now you speak plainly; you aren't using figures of speech.

30 Now we know that you know everything and you don't need anyone to ask you. Because of this we believe you have come from God."

31 Jesus replied, "Now you believe?

32 Look! A time is coming—and is here!—when each of you will be scattered to your own homes and you will leave me alone. I'm not really alone, for the Father is with me.

33 I've said these things to you so that you will have peace in me. In the world you have distress. But be encouraged! I have conquered the world."

New International Version NIV

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 you will ask in my name. I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf.

27 No, the Father himself loves you because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.

28 I came from the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”

29 Then Jesus’ disciples said, “Now you are speaking clearly and without figures of speech.

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 “Do you now believe?” Jesus replied.

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 “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.”
