< John 16 >
1 “I have told you these things so that you will not fall away.
These thinges have I sayde vnto you because ye shuld not be offended.
2 They will put you out of the synagogues. In fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God.
They shall excomunicat you: ye ye tyme shall come that whosoever killeth you will thinke that he doth God service.
3 They will do these things because they have not known the Father or Me.
And suche thinges will they do vnto you because they have not knowen the father nether yet me.
4 But I have told you these things so that when their hour comes, you will remember that I told you about them. I did not tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
But these thinges have I tolde you that when that houre is come ye myght remember them that I tolde you so. These thinges sayde I not unto you at the begynninge because I was present with you.
5 Now, however, I am going to Him who sent Me; yet none of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going?’
But now I goo my waye to him that sent me and none of you axeth me: whither goest thou?
6 Instead, your hearts are filled with sorrow because I have told you these things.
But because I have sayde suche thinges vnto you youre hertes are full of sorowe.
7 But I tell you the truth, it is for your benefit that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.
Neverthelesse I tell you the trueth it is expedient for you that I goo awaye. For yf I goo not awaye that comforter will not come vnto you. But yf I departe I will sende him vnto you.
8 And when He comes, He will convict the world in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment:
And when he is come he will rebuke ye worlde of synne and of rightwesnes and of iudgement.
9 in regard to sin, because they do not believe in Me;
Of synne because they beleve not on me:
10 in regard to righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will no longer see Me;
Of rightwesnes because I go to my father and ye shall se me no moare:
11 and in regard to judgment, because the prince of this world has been condemned.
and of iudgement because the chefe ruler of this worlde is iudged all ready.
12 I still have much to tell you, but you cannot yet bear to hear it.
I have yet many thinges to saye vnto you: but ye canot beare them awaye now.
13 However, when the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all truth. For He will not speak on His own, but He will speak what He hears, and He will declare to you what is to come.
How be it when he is come (I meane the sprete of truthe) he will leade yon into all trueth. He shall not speake of him selfe: but whatsoever he shall heare that shall he speake and he will shewe you thinges to come.
14 He will glorify Me by taking from what is Mine and disclosing it to you.
He shall glorify me for he shall receave of myne and shall shewe vnto you.
15 Everything that belongs to the Father is Mine. That is why I said that the Spirit will take from what is Mine and disclose it to you.
All thinges that ye father hath aremyne. Therfore sayd I vnto you that he shall take of myne and shewe vnto you.
16 In a little while you will see Me no more, and then after a little while you will see Me.”
After a whyle ye shall not se me and agayne after a whyle ye shall se me: For I goo to the father.
17 Then some of His disciples asked one another, “Why is He telling us, ‘In a little while you will not see Me, and then after a little while you will see Me’ and ‘Because I am going to the Father’?”
Then sayd some of his disciples bitwene them selves: what is this yt he sayth vnto vs after a whyle ye shall not se me and agayne after a whyle ye shall se me: and that I go to the father.
18 They kept asking, “Why is He saying, ‘a little while’? We do not understand what He is saying.”
They sayd therfore: what is this that he sayth after a whyle? we canot tell what he sayth.
19 Aware that they wanted to question Him, Jesus said to them, “Are you asking one another why I said, ‘In a little while you will not see Me, and then after a little while you will see Me’?
Iesus perceaved yt they wolde axe him and sayd vnto them: This is it that ye enquyre of bitwene youre selves that I sayd after a whyle ye shall not se me and agayne after a whyle ye shall se me.
20 Truly, truly, I tell you, you will weep and wail while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy.
Verely verely I saye vnto you: ye shall wepe and lamet and the worlde shall reioyce. Ye shall sorowe: but youre sorowe shalbe tourned to ioye.
21 A woman has pain in childbirth because her time has come; but when she brings forth her child, she forgets her anguish because of her joy that a child has been born into the world.
A woman when she traveyleth hath sorowe because her houre is come: but assone as she is delivered of the chylde she remembreth no moare the anguysshe for ioye that a man is borne in to the worlde
22 So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy.
And ye now are in sorowe: but I will se you agayne and youre hertes shall reioyce and youre ioye shall no ma take fro you.
23 In that day you will no longer ask Me anything. Truly, truly, I tell you, whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.
And in that daye shall ye axe me no question. Verely verely I saye vnto you whatsoever ye shall axe the father in my name he will geve it you
24 Until now you have not asked for anything in My name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.
Hitherto have ye axed nothinge in my name. Axe and ye shall receave it: that youre ioye maye be full.
25 I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. An hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you this way, but will tell you plainly about the Father.
These thinges have I spoken vnto you in proverbes. The tyme will come when I shall no moare speake to you in proverbes: but I shall shewe you playnly from my father.
26 In that day you will ask in My name. I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf.
At that daye shall ye axe in myne name. And I saye not vnto you that I will speake vnto my father for you
27 For the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came from God.
For ye father him selfe loveth you because ye have loved me and have beleved that I came out from God.
28 I came from the Father and entered the world. In turn, I will leave the world and go to the Father.”
I went out from the father and came into the worlde: and I leve the worlde agayne and go to ye father.
29 His disciples said, “See, now You are speaking plainly and without figures of speech.
His disciples sayd vnto him: loo now speakest thou playnly and thou vsest no proverbe.
30 Now we understand that You know all things and that You have no need for anyone to question You. Because of this, we believe that You came from God.”
Nowe knowe we that thou vnderstondest all thinges and nedest not yt eny man shuld axe the eny question. Therfore beleve we that thou camst fro god.
31 “Do you finally believe?” Jesus replied.
Iesus answered them: Now ye do beleve.
32 “Look, an hour is coming and has already come when you will be scattered, each to his own home, and you will leave Me all alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.
Beholde ye houre draweth nye and is already come yt ye shalbe scatered every man his wayes and shall leave me alone. And yet am I not alone. For ye father is with me.
33 I have told you these things so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage; I have overcome the world!”
These wordes have I spoke vnto you yt in me ye might have peace. For in ye worlde shall ye have tribulacio: but be of good cheare I have over come the worlde.
