  1. John 16:16-33

    00:00:31-00:06:06

    Jesus speaks to his disciples at the Last Supper about his departure and the coming of the Holy Spirit.

    1. 16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
    2. 17 Then said some of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?
    3. 18 They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.
    4. 19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?
    5. 20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
    6. 21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.
    7. 22 And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.
    8. 23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.
    9. 24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
    10. 25 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.
    11. 26 At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:
    12. 27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
    13. 28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.
    14. 29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.
    15. 30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
    16. 31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
    17. 32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
    18. 33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

    2. 2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
    3. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
    4. 4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

    3. 30 Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.
    4. 31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
    5. 32 And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.
    6. 33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?
    7. 34 And they said, The Lord hath need of him.
    8. 35 And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.
    9. 36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
    10. 37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
    11. 38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
    12. 39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.

    2. 24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
    3. 25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
    4. 26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
    5. 27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.
    6. 28 Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
    7. 29 The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him.
    8. 30 Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.
    9. 31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
    10. 32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.
    11. 33 This he said, signifying what death he should die.
    12. 34 The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?
    13. 35 Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.
    14. 36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.

    6. 12 With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy endureth for ever.
    7. 13 To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever:
    8. 14 And made Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy endureth for ever:
    9. 15 But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy endureth for ever.

    3. 43 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
    4. 44 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
