John 16:1-7

1“1TheseG3778 thingsG3778 I have spokenG2980 to you soG2443 thatG2443 you will not 2be 3ledG4624 intoG4624 sinG4624. 2They will 45banG4160G656 you fromG656 theG656 synagogueG656, yetG235 6an hourG5610 is comingG2064 for everyoneG3956 7who killsG615 you to thinkG1380 that he is offeringG4374 a 8serviceG2999 to GodG2316. 3TheseG3778 thingsG3778 they will doG4160 9becauseG3754 they have not knownG1097 the FatherG3962 norG3761 Me. 4But theseG3778 thingsG3778 I have spokenG2980 to you, 10soG2443 thatG2443 whenG3752 their hourG5610 comesG2064, you 11may rememberG3421 that I toldG3004 you of them. HoweverG1161, I did not sayG3004 theseG3778 thingsG3778 to you 12at the beginningG746, becauseG3754 I was with you.

5“But nowG3568 13I am goingG5217 to Him who sentG3992 Me; and noneG3762 of you asksG2065 Me, ‘14WhereG4226 are You goingG5217?’ 6But becauseG3754 I have saidG2980 theseG3778 thingsG3778 to you, 15griefG3077 has filledG4137 your heartG2588. 7But I tellG3004 you the truthG225: it isG4851 toG4851 your advantageG4851 that I am leavingG565; for ifG1437 I do not leaveG565, the 1617HelperG3875 will not comeG2064 to you; but ifG1437 I goG4198, 18I will sendG3992 Him to you.
