John 16:19-22
191Jesus knew that they wanted to question Him, and He said to them, “Are you deliberating together about this, that I said, ‘A little while, and you are not going to see Me, and again a little while, and you will see Me’?
20Truly, truly I say to you that 2you will weep and mourn, but the world will rejoice; you will grieve, but 3your grief will be turned into joy!
214Whenever a woman is in labor she has 5pain, because her hour has come; but when she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish because of the joy that a 6child has been born into the world.
22Therefore 7you too have grief now; but 8I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one is going to take your joy away from you.
