John 16
1 "These things I have spoken to you in order to clear stumbling-blocks out of your path.
| ܗܠܝܢ ܡܠܠܬ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܬܬܟܫܠܘܢ |
2 You will be excluded from the synagogues; nay more, the time is coming when any one who has murdered one of you will suppose he is offering service to God.
| ܢܦܩܘܢܟܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܡܢ ܟܢܘܫܬܗܘܢ ܘܬܐܬܐ ܫܥܬܐ ܕܟܠ ܕܢܩܛܘܠܟܘܢ ܢܤܒܪ ܕܩܘܪܒܢܐ ܡܩܪܒ ܠܐܠܗܐ |
3 And they will do these things because they have failed to recognize the Father and to discover who I am.
| ܘܗܠܝܢ ܢܥܒܕܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥܘ ܘܠܐ ܠܐܒܝ ܘܠܐ ܠܝ |
4 But I have spoken these things to you in order that when the time for their accomplishment comes you may remember them, and may recollect that I told you. I did not, however, tell you all this at first, because I was still with you.
| ܗܠܝܢ ܡܠܠܬ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܕܡܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܥܕܢܗܝܢ ܬܥܗܕܘܢ ܐܢܝܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܠܐ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܥܡܟܘܢ ܗܘܝܬ |
5 But now I an returning to Him who sent me; and not one of you asks me where I am going.
| ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܠܘܬ ܡܢ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܡܫܐܠ ܠܝ ܠܐܝܟܐ ܐܙܠ ܐܢܬ |
6 But grief has filled your hearts because I have said all this to you.
| ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܗܠܝܢ ܘܐܬܬ ܟܪܝܘܬܐ ܘܡܠܬ ܠܒܘܬܟܘܢ |
7 "Yet it is the truth that I am telling you--it is to your advantage that I go away. For unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.
| ܐܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܫܪܪܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܦܩܚ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܙܠ ܐܢ ܓܝܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܐ ܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܦܪܩܠܛܐ ܠܐ ܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܙܠ ܐܫܕܪܝܘܗܝ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ |
8 And He, when He comes, will convict the world in respect of sin, of righteousness, and of judgement; --
| ܘܡܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܗܘ ܢܟܤܝܘܗܝ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܥܠ ܚܛܝܬܐ ܘܥܠ ܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܘܥܠ ܕܝܢܐ |
9 of sin, because they do not believe in me;
| ܥܠ ܚܛܝܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܒܝ |
10 of righteousness, because I am going to the Father, and you will no longer see me;
| ܥܠ ܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܠܘܬ ܐܒܝ ܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܘܠܐ ܬܘܒ ܚܙܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܝ |
11 of judgement, because the Prince of this world is under sentence.
| ܥܠ ܕܝܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܐܪܟܘܢܐ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܗܘ |
12 "I have much more to say to you, but you are unable at present to bear the burden of it.
| ܬܘܒ ܤܓܝ ܐܝܬ ܠܝ ܠܡܐܡܪ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܐܚܕ ܗܫܐ |
13 But when He has come--the Spirit of Truth--He will guide you into all the truth. For He will not speak as Himself originating what He says, but all that He hears He will speak, and He will make known the future to you.
| ܡܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܗܘ ܢܕܒܪܟܘܢ ܒܟܠܗ ܫܪܪܐ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܢܡܠܠ ܡܢ ܪܥܝܢ ܢܦܫܗ ܐܠܐ ܟܠ ܕܢܫܡܥ ܗܘ ܢܡܠܠ ܘܥܬܝܕܬܐ ܢܘܕܥܟܘܢ |
14 He will glorify me, because He will take of what is mine and will make it known to you.
| ܘܗܘ ܢܫܒܚܢܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܡܢ ܕܝܠܝ ܢܤܒ ܘܢܚܘܝܟܘܢ |
15 Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said that the Spirit of Truth takes of what is mine and will make it known to you.
| ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܐܒܝ ܕܝܠܝ ܗܘ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܕܝܠܝ ܢܤܒ ܘܢܚܘܝܟܘܢ |
16 "A little while and you see me no more, and again a little while and you shall see me."
| ܩܠܝܠ ܘܠܐ ܬܚܙܘܢܢܝ ܘܬܘܒ ܩܠܝܠ ܘܬܚܙܘܢܢܝ ܕܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܐ |
17 Some of His disciples therefore said to one another, "What does this mean which He is telling us, 'A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me,' and 'Because I am going to the Father'?"
| ܘܐܡܪܘ ܗܘܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܡܢܐ ܗܝ ܗܕܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܠܢ ܕܩܠܝܠ ܘܠܐ ܬܚܙܘܢܢܝ ܘܬܘܒ ܩܠܝܠ ܘܬܚܙܘܢܢܝ ܘܕܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܝ |
18 So they asked one another repeatedly, "What can that 'little while' mean which He speaks of? We do not understand His words."
| ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܢܐ ܗܝ ܗܕܐ ܩܠܝܠ ܕܐܡܪ ܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢܢ ܡܢܐ ܡܡܠܠ |
19 Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask Him, and He said, "Is this what you are questioning one another about--my saying, 'A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me'?
| ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܝܕܥ ܕܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܡܫܐܠܘܬܗ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܥܠ ܗܕܐ ܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܡ ܚܕܕܐ ܕܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܩܠܝܠ ܘܠܐ ܬܚܙܘܢܢܝ ܘܬܘܒ ܩܠܝܠ ܘܬܚܙܘܢܢܝ |
20 In most solemn truth I tell you that you will weep aloud and lament, but the world will be glad. You will mourn, but your grief will be turned into gladness.
| ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܬܒܟܘܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܬܐܠܘܢ ܘܥܠܡܐ ܢܚܕܐ ܘܠܟܘܢ ܬܟܪܐ ܐܠܐ ܟܪܝܘܬܟܘܢ ܠܚܕܘܬܐ ܬܗܘܐ |
21 A woman, when she is in labour, has sorrow, because her time has come. But when she has given birth to the babe, she no longer remembers the pain, because of her joy at a child being born into the world.
| ܐܢܬܬܐ ܡܐ ܕܝܠܕܐ ܟܪܝܐ ܠܗ ܕܡܛܐ ܝܘܡܐ ܕܡܘܠܕܗ ܡܐ ܕܝܠܕܬ ܕܝܢ ܒܪܐ ܠܐ ܥܗܕܐ ܐܘܠܨܢܗ ܡܛܠ ܚܕܘܬܐ ܕܐܬܝܠܕ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܒܥܠܡܐ |
22 So you also now have sorrow; but I shall see you again, and your hearts will be glad, and your gladness no one will take away from you.
| ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܗܫܐ ܟܪܝܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܬܘܒ ܕܝܢ ܐܚܙܝܟܘܢ ܘܢܚܕܐ ܠܒܟܘܢ ܘܚܕܘܬܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܢܤܒ ܡܢܟܘܢ |
23 You will put no questions to me then. "In most solemn truth I tell you that whatever you ask the Father for in my name He will give you.
| ܘܒܗܘ ܝܘܡܐ ܠܝ ܠܐ ܬܫܐܠܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܬܫܐܠܘܢ ܠܐܒܝ ܒܫܡܝ ܢܬܠ ܠܟܘܢ |
24 As yet you have not asked for anything in my name: ask, and you shall receive, that your hearts may be filled with gladness.
| ܥܕܡܐ ܠܗܫܐ ܠܐ ܫܐܠܬܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܒܫܡܝ ܫܐܠܘ ܘܬܤܒܘܢ ܕܬܗܘܐ ܚܕܘܬܟܘܢ ܡܫܡܠܝܐ |
25 "All this I have spoken to you in veiled language. The time is coming when I shall no longer speak to you in veiled language, but will tell you about the Father in plain words.
| ܗܠܝܢ ܒܦܠܐܬܐ ܡܠܠܬ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܐܬܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܫܥܬܐ ܐܡܬܝ ܕܠܐ ܐܡܠܠ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܒܦܠܐܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܥܝܢ ܒܓܠܐ ܐܒܕܩ ܠܟܘܢ ܥܠ ܐܒܐ |
26 At that time you will make your requests in my name; and I do not promise to ask the Father on your behalf,
| ܒܗܘ ܝܘܡܐ ܕܬܫܐܠܘܢ ܒܫܡܝ ܘܠܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܒܥܐ ܡܢ ܐܒܐ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ |
27 for the Father Himself holds you dear, because you have held me dear and have believed that I came from the Father's presence.
| ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܐܒܐ ܪܚܡ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܪܚܡܬܘܢܢܝ ܘܗܝܡܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܢܦܩܬ |
28 I came from the Father and have come into the world. Again I am leaving the world and am going to the Father."
| ܢܦܩܬ ܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܐ ܘܐܬܝܬ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܘܬܘܒ ܫܒܩ ܐܢܐ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܘܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܠܝ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܐ |
29 "Ah, now you are using plain language," said His disciples, "and are uttering no figure of speech!
| ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܗܐ ܗܫܐ ܓܠܝܐܝܬ ܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܬ ܘܦܠܐܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܚܕܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܬ |
30 Now we know that you have all knowledge, and do not need to be pressed with questions. Through this we believe that you came from God."
| ܗܫܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܕܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܬ ܘܠܐ ܤܢܝܩ ܐܢܬ ܕܐܢܫ ܢܫܐܠܟ ܒܗܕܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܕܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܢܦܩܬ |
31 "Do you at last believe?" replied Jesus.
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܗܝܡܢܘ |
32 "Remember that the time is coming, nay, has already come, for you all to be dispersed each to his own home and to leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
| ܕܗܐ ܐܬܝܐ ܫܥܬܐ ܘܗܫܐ ܐܬܬ ܕܬܬܒܕܪܘܢ ܐܢܫ ܠܐܬܪܗ ܘܬܫܒܩܘܢܢܝ ܒܠܚܘܕܝ ܘܠܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܒܠܚܘܕܝ ܕܐܒܐ ܥܡܝ ܗܘ |
33 "I have spoken all this to you in order that in me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction. But keep up your courage: I have won the victory over the world."
| ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܒܝ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܫܠܡܐ ܒܥܠܡܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܘܠܨܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܬܠܒܒܘ ܐܢܐ ܙܟܝܬܗ ܠܥܠܡܐ |
