Amplified Bible
John 16:25-32
25“I have told you these things in figurative language (veiled language, proverbs); the hour is now coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures of speech, but I will tell you plainly about the Father.
26In that day you will ask in My name, and I am not saying to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf [because it will be unnecessary];
27for the Father Himself [tenderly] loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came from the Father.
28I came from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and going to the Father.”
29His disciples said, “Ah, now You are speaking plainly to us and not in figures of speech!
30Now we know that You know all things, and have no need for anyone to question You; because of this we believe [without any doubt] that you came from God.”
31Jesus answered them, “Do you now [at last] believe?
32Take careful notice: an hour is coming, and has arrived, when you will all be scattered, each to his own home, leaving Me alone; and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.
