John 16:20-29

20Verily, verily, I sayG3004 to you, that ye shall weepG2799 and lament, ye, but the worldG2889 shall rejoiceG5463; and ye will be grievedG3076, but your griefG3077 shall be turned to joyG5479.

21A womanG1135, whenG3752 she gives birthG5088 to a childG3813, has griefG3077 because her hourG5610 has comeG2064; but whenG3752 the childG3813 is bornG1080, she no longer remembersG3421 the trouble, on accountG1223 of the joyG5479 that a manG444 has been bornG1080 into the worldG2889.

22And ye nowG1161 thereforeG3767 have griefG3077; but I will seeG3708 you againG3825, and your heartG2588 shall rejoiceG5463, and your joyG5479 no oneG3762 takesG142 from you.

23And in that dayG2250 ye shall demand nothing of me: verily, verily, I sayG3004 to you, Whatsoever ye shall askG154 the FatherG3962 in my nameG3686, he will giveG1325 you.

24Hitherto ye have askedG154 nothing in my nameG3686: askG154, and ye shall receiveG2983, that your joyG5479 may beG1510 fullG4137.

25These thingsG3778 I have spokenG2980 to you in allegories; the hourG5610 is comingG2064 that I will no longer speakG2980 to you in allegories, but will declare to you openlyG3954 concerningG4012 the FatherG3962.

26In that dayG2250 ye shall askG154 in my nameG3686; and I sayG3004 not to you that I will demand of the FatherG3962 for you,

27for the FatherG3962 himself has affection for you, because ye have had affection for me, and have believedG4100 that I cameG1831 out from 1GodG2316.

28I cameG2064 out from the FatherG3962 and have comeG2064 into the worldG2889; againG3825, I leaveG863 the worldG2889 and goG4198 to the FatherG3962.

29His disciplesG3101 sayG3004 to him, Lo, nowG3568 thou speakest openlyG3954 and utterest no allegory.
