John 16:7-16

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.

12I have yetG235 manyG4183 thingsG4183 to sayG3004 unto you, but ye cannot bearG941 them nowG737.

13Howbeit whenG3752 he, the SpiritG4151 of truthG225, is comeG2064, he shall guide you into all the truthG225: for he shall not speakG2980 from himself; but what thingsG3956 soever he shall hearG191, these shall he speakG2980: and he shall declareG312 unto you the thingsG3956 that are to comeG2064.

14He shall glorifyG1392 me: for he shall takeG2983 of mine, and shall declareG312 it unto you.

15All thingsG3778 whatsoever the FatherG3962 hath areG1510 mine: therefore saidG3004 I, that he taketh of mine, and shall declareG312 it unto you.

16A littleG3398 while, and ye behold me no more; and againG3825 a littleG3398 while, and ye shall seeG3708 me.
