John 16:24-33

24 Hitherto, you have not asked any thing in my name. Ask, and you shall receive; that your joy may be full.

25 These things I have spoken to you in proverbs. The hour cometh when I will no longer speak to you in proverbs, but will shew you plainly of the Father.

26 In that day, you shall ask in my name: and I say not to you that I will ask the Father for you.

27 For the Father himself loveth you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came out from God.

28 I came forth from the Father and am come into the world: again I leave the world and I go to the Father.

29 His disciples say to him: Behold, now thou speakest plainly and speakest no proverb.

30 Now we know that thou knowest all things and thou needest not that any man should ask thee. By this we believe that thou camest forth from God.

31 Jesus answered them: Do you now believe?

32 Behold, the hour cometh, and it is now come, that you shall be scattered every man to his own and shall leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

33 These things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you shall have distress. But have confidence. I have overcome the world.
