John 16 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

Jesus’ Warning

1 “These ^G3778 things ^G3778 I have spoken ^G2980 to you so ^G2443 that ^G2443 you will not [fn]be led ^G4624 into ^G4624 sin ^G4624.

2 They will [fn]ban ^G4160 G656 you from ^G656 the ^G656 synagogue ^G656, yet ^G235 an hour ^G5610 is coming ^G2064 for everyone ^G3956 who kills ^G615 you to think ^G1380 that he is offering ^G4374 a [fn]service ^G2999 to God ^G2316. 3 These ^G3778 things ^G3778 they will do ^G4160 because ^G3754 they have not known ^G1097 the Father ^G3962 nor ^G3761 Me. 4 But these ^G3778 things ^G3778 I have spoken ^G2980 to you, so ^G2443 that ^G2443 when ^G3752 their hour ^G5610 comes ^G2064, you [fn]may remember ^G3421 that I told ^G3004 you of them. However ^G1161, I did not say ^G3004 these ^G3778 things ^G3778 to you at the beginning ^G746, because ^G3754 I was with you.

The Holy Spirit Promised

5 “But now ^G3568 I am going ^G5217 to Him who sent ^G3992 Me; and none ^G3762 of you asks ^G2065 Me, ‘Where ^G4226 are You going ^G5217?’

6 But because ^G3754 I have said ^G2980 these ^G3778 things ^G3778 to you, grief ^G3077 has filled ^G4137 your heart ^G2588. 7 But I tell ^G3004 you the truth ^G225: it is ^G4851 to ^G4851 your advantage ^G4851 that I am leaving ^G565; for if ^G1437 I do not leave ^G565, the [fn]Helper ^G3875 will not come ^G2064 to you; but if ^G1437 I go ^G4198, I will send ^G3992 Him to you. 8 And He, when He comes ^G2064, will convict ^G1651 the world ^G2889 regarding ^G4012 sin ^G266, and righteousness ^G1343, and judgment ^G2920: 9 regarding ^G4012 sin ^G266, because ^G3754 they do not believe ^G4100 in Me; 10 and regarding ^G4012 righteousness ^G1343, because ^G3754 I am going ^G5217 to the Father ^G3962 and you no ^G3765 longer ^G3765 are going to see ^G2334 Me; 11 and regarding ^G4012 judgment ^G2920, because ^G3754 the ruler ^G758 of this ^G3778 world ^G2889 has been judged ^G2919.

12 “I have ^G2192 many ^G4183 more ^G2089 things ^G4183 to say ^G3004 to you, but you cannot ^G1410 G3756 bear ^G941 them at the present ^G737 time ^G737. 13 But when ^G3752 He, the Spirit ^G4151 of truth ^G225, comes ^G2064, He will guide ^G3594 you into all ^G3956 the truth ^G225; for He will not speak ^G2980 on His own ^G1438, but whatever ^G3745 He hears ^G191, He will speak ^G2980; and He will disclose ^G312 to you what is to come ^G2064. 14 He will glorify ^G1392 Me, for He will take ^G2983 from Mine ^G1699 and will disclose ^G312 it to you. 15 All ^G3956 things ^G3956 that the Father ^G3962 has ^G2192 are Mine ^G1699; this ^G3778 is why ^G1223 I said ^G3004 that He takes ^G2983 from Mine ^G1699 and will disclose ^G312 it to you.

Jesus’ Death and Resurrection Foretold

16 “A little ^G3398 while ^G3398, and you no ^G3765 longer ^G3765 are going to see ^G3708 Me; and again ^G3825 a little ^G3398 while ^G3398, and you will see ^G3708 Me.”

17 So ^G3767 some ^G1537 of ^G1537 His disciples ^G3101 said ^G3004 to one ^G240 another ^G240, “What ^G5101 is this ^G3778 that He is telling ^G3004 us, ‘A little ^G3398 while ^G3398, and you are not going to see ^G3708 Me; and again ^G3825 a little ^G3398 while ^G3398, and you will see ^G3708 Me’; and, ‘because ^G3754 I am going ^G5217 to the Father ^G3962’?” 18 So ^G3767 they were saying ^G3004, “What ^G5101 is this ^G3778 that He says ^G3004, ‘A little ^G3398 while ^G3398’? We do not know ^G6063 what ^G5101 He is talking ^G2980 about.” 19 Jesus ^G2424 knew ^G1097 that they wanted ^G2309 to question ^G2065 Him, and He said ^G3004 to them, “Are you deliberating ^G2212 together ^G3326 G240 about ^G4012 this ^G3778, that I said ^G3004, ‘A little ^G3398 while ^G3398, and you are not going to see ^G3708 Me, and again ^G3825 a little ^G3398 while ^G3398, and you will see ^G3708 Me’? 20 Truly ^G281, truly ^G281 I say ^G3004 to you that you will weep ^G2799 and mourn ^G2354, but the world ^G2889 will rejoice ^G5463; you will grieve ^G3076, but your grief ^G3077 will be turned ^G1096 into joy ^G5479! 21 Whenever ^G3752 a woman ^G1135 is in labor ^G5088 she has ^G2192 [fn]pain ^G3077, because ^G3754 her hour ^G5610 has come ^G2064; but when ^G3752 she gives ^G1080 birth ^G1080 to the child ^G3813, she no ^G3765 longer ^G3765 remembers ^G3421 the anguish ^G2347 because ^G3754 of the joy ^G5479 that a [fn]child ^G444 has been born ^G1080 into the world ^G2889. 22 Therefore ^G3767 you too ^G2532 have ^G2192 grief ^G3077 now ^G3568; but I will see ^G3708 you again ^G3825, and your heart ^G2588 will rejoice ^G5463, and no ^G3762 one ^G3762 is going to take ^G142 your joy ^G5479 away ^G142 from you.

Prayer Promises

23 And on that day ^G2250 you will not question ^G2065 Me about anything ^G5100. Truly ^G281, truly ^G281 I say ^G3004 to you, if ^G302 you ask ^G154 the Father ^G3962 for anything ^G5100 in My name ^G3686, He will give ^G1325 it to you. 24 Until ^G2193 now ^G737 you have asked ^G154 for nothing ^G3762 in My name ^G3686; ask ^G154 and you will receive ^G2983, so ^G2443 that ^G2443 your joy ^G5479 may be made ^G4137 full ^G4137.

25 “These ^G3778 things ^G3778 I have spoken ^G2980 to you in figures ^G3942 of ^G3942 speech ^G3942; an hour ^G5610 is coming ^G2064 when ^G3753 I will no ^G3765 longer ^G3765 speak ^G2980 to you in figures ^G3942 of ^G3942 speech ^G3942, but will tell ^G518 you plainly ^G3954 about ^G4012 the Father ^G3962. 26 On that day ^G2250 you will ask ^G154 in My name ^G3686, and I am not saying ^G3004 to you that I will request ^G2065 of the Father ^G3962 on ^G4012 your behalf ^G4012; 27 for the Father ^G3962 Himself ^G846 loves ^G5368 you, because ^G3754 you have loved ^G5368 Me and have believed ^G4100 that I came ^G1831 forth ^G1831 from the Father ^G3962. 28 I came ^G1831 forth ^G1831 from the Father ^G3962 and have come ^G2064 into the world ^G2889; again ^G3825, I am leaving ^G863 the world ^G2889 and going ^G4198 to the Father ^G3962.”

29 His disciples ^G3101 *said ^G3004, “See ^G2396, now ^G3568 You are speaking ^G2980 plainly ^G3954 and are not [fn]using ^G3004 any ^G3762 figure ^G3942 of ^G3942 speech ^G3942. 30 Now ^G3568 we know ^G6063 that You know ^G6063 all ^G3956 things ^G3956, and that You have ^G2192 no ^G3756 need ^G5532 for anyone ^G5100 to question ^G2065 You; this ^G3778 is why ^G1722 we believe ^G4100 that You came ^G1831 forth ^G1831 from God ^G2316.” 31 Jesus ^G2424 replied ^G611 to them, “Do you now ^G737 believe ^G4100? 32 Behold ^G2400, an hour ^G5610 is coming ^G2064, and has already come ^G2064, for you to be scattered ^G4650, each ^G1538 to his own ^G2398 home, and to leave ^G863 Me alone ^G3441; and yet I am ^G1510 not alone ^G3441, because ^G3754 the Father ^G3962 is with Me. 33 These ^G3778 things ^G3778 I have spoken ^G2980 to you so ^G2443 that ^G2443 in Me you may have ^G2192 peace ^G1515. In the world ^G2889 you have ^G2192 tribulation ^G2347, but take ^G2293 courage ^G2293; I have overcome ^G3528 the world ^G2889.”
