1 [“] I have told you⁺ these things so that you⁺ will not fall away. 2 They will put you⁺ out of the synagogues. In fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you⁺ will think he is offering a service to God {Theō}. 3 They will do these things because they have not known the Father {Patera} or Me. 4 But I have told you⁺ these things so that when their hour comes, you⁺ will remember that I told you⁺ about them. I did not tell you⁺ these things from the beginning, because I was with you⁺. 5 Now, however, I am going to Him who sent Me; yet none of you⁺ asks Me, ‘Where are You going? 6 Instead, your⁺ hearts are filled with sorrow because I have told you⁺ these things. 7 But I tell you⁺ the truth, it is for your⁺ benefit that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate (Comforter) will not come to you⁺; but if I go, I will send Him to you⁺. John 16:1-7, Berean Annotated Bible. Public domain.
