John 16:1-13 ▼

1 These thinges haue I sayde vnto you, that ye shulde not be offended.

2 They shal excomunicate you. The tyme commeth, that who soeuer putteth you to death, shal thynke that he doth seruyce vnto God.

3 And soch thinges shal they do vnto you, because they haue nether knowne ye father ner yet me.

4 But these thinges haue I sayde vnto you, that whan the tyme cometh ye maye thynke theron, that I tolde you. But these thinges haue I not sayde vnto you from the begynnynge: For I was with you.

5 But now I go vnto him that sent me, & none of you axeth me: Whither goest thou?

6 but because I haue sayde these thinges vnto you, youre hert is full of sorowe.

7 Neuertheles I tell you the trueth, It is better for you yt I go awaye: For yf I go not awaye that comforter commeth not vnto you: but yf I departe, I wil sende hi vnto you.

8 And whan he commeth, he shal rebuke the worlde of synne, and of righteousnes, & of iudgment.

9 Of synne, because they beleue not on me.

10 Of righteousnes, because I go to the father, and ye shal se me nomore.

11 Of iudgmet, because the prynce of this worlde is iudged allready.

12 I haue yet moch to saye vnto you, but ye can not now beare it awaye:

13 howbeit whan he (the sprete of trueth commeth) he shal lede you in to all trueth. For he shal not speake of himself, but what soeuer he shal heare, that shal he speake: and he shall shewe you, what is for to come.
