John 16:5-11

5But nowG1161 I goG5217 unto him that sentG3992 me; and noneG3762 of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?

6But because I have spokenG2980 these thingsG3778 unto you, sorrowG3077 hath filledG4137 your heartG2588.

7Nevertheless I tellG3004 you the truthG225: It is expedient for you that I goG4198 awayG565; for if I goG4198 not awayG565, the Comforter will not comeG2064 unto you; but if I goG4198, I will sendG3992 him unto you.

8And he, when he is comeG2064, will convictG1651 the worldG2889 in respect of sinG266, and of righteousnessG1343, and of judgmentG2920:

9of sinG266, because they believeG4100 not on me;

10of righteousnessG1343, because I goG5217 to the FatherG3962, and ye behold me no more;

11of judgmentG2920, because the princeG758 of this worldG2889 hath been judgedG2919.
