16 “Ginasugid ko nga daan sa inyo ini nga mga butang agod bisan ano pa ang matabo sa ulihi indi madula ang inyo pagtuo sa akon. Pahalinon nila kamo sa ila mga simbahan, kag magaabot ang tion nga ang bisan sin-o nga magpatay sa inyo magahunahuna nga nagaalagad siya sa Dios. Himuon nila ini sa inyo tungod kay wala sila makakilala sa Amay ukon sa akon. Pero ginasugid ko ini sa inyo agod nga kon mag-abot na ang tion nga himuon nila ini sa inyo, madumduman ninyo nga ginpaandaman ko na kamo nga daan.”

Ang Obra sang Espiritu Santo

“Ini nga mga butang wala ko ginsugid sa inyo sang una kay kaupod pa ninyo ako. Pero karon mabalik na ako sa nagpadala sa akon kag wala gid sing may nagapamangkot bisan isa sa inyo kon diin ako makadto. Karon nga ginsugiran ko na kamo, nagakasubo gid kamo. Pero sa pagkamatuod, mas maayo para sa inyo nga maghalin ako diri, kay kon indi ako maghalin, ang Manugbulig indi mag-abot sa inyo. Pero kon maghalin ako, ipadala ko siya diri sa inyo. Kag kon mag-abot na siya diri sa kalibutan ipakita niya sa mga tawo nga sila mga makasasala kag ako amo ang matarong. Kag ipakita man niya nga ang Dios magasentensya sa ila. Ipakita niya sa mga tawo nga sila mga makasasala, tungod kay wala sila nagtuo sa akon. 10 Ipakita niya nga ako ang matarong, tungod kay makadto ako sa Amay kag indi na kamo makakita sa akon. 11 Ipakita man niya sa ila nga ang Dios magasentensya sa ila, kay nasentensyahan na si Satanas nga amo ang nagagahom sa sini nga kalibutan.

12 “May madamo pa kuntani ako nga inugsugid sa inyo, ugaling indi pa kamo makaintiendi sini. 13 Pero kon mag-abot na ang Espiritu Santo nga amo ang manugtudlo sang kamatuoran, tudluan niya kamo sang tanan nga kamatuoran. Ang mga butang nga iya itudlo sa inyo indi halin sa iya, kundi kon ano ang iya nabatian amo ina ang iya isugid sa inyo. Isugid man niya sa inyo kon ano ang magakalatabo sa palaabuton. 14 Padunggan niya ako tungod kay ipaintiendi niya sa inyo ang akon mga ginpanudlo kag ginpanghimo. 15 Kay kon ano ang ginapanudlo sang Amay amo man ang sa akon. Amo ina nga nagsiling ako nga ang akon mga ginpanudlo ipaintiendi niya sa inyo.”

Ang Kasubo Bayluhan sang Kalipay

16 “Indi na lang madugay kag indi na ninyo ako makita. Pero sa indi man madugay makita naman ninyo ako liwat.” 17 Nagpinamangkutanay ang iban sa iya mga sumulunod, “Ano bala ang buot niya silingon nga sa indi na lang madugay indi na kita makakita sa iya, kag sa indi man madugay makita naman naton siya liwat? Kag nagsiling pa siya nga ini matabo tungod kay mabalik na siya sa Amay. 18 Ano bala ang iya buot silingon sa ‘indi na lang madugay’? Indi ta maintiendihan kon ano ang iya buot silingon.” 19 Nahibaluan ni Jesus nga gusto kuntani nila nga magpamangkot sa iya, gani nagsiling siya sa ila, “Nagsiling ako nga sa indi na lang madugay indi na ninyo ako makita, pero sa indi man madugay makita naman ninyo ako liwat. Indi bala nga amo ini kuntani ang inyo gusto nga ipamangkot sa akon? 20 Sa pagkamatuod, ginasugid ko sa inyo nga ang mga tawo sang kalibutan magakalipay gid sa matabo sa akon, pero kamo magahibi sa kasubo. Pero ang inyo mga kasubo madula kag mabayluhan sang kalipay. 21 Pareho sa babayi nga nagapasakit tungod kay mabata na siya. Pero kon matawo na gani ang bata, malimtan na niya ang kasakit tungod sang iya kalipay nga natawo na ang iya bata diri sa kalibutan. 22 Kamo pareho man sina. Karon nagakasubo kamo, pero magapakita pa ako liwat sa inyo kag magaawas gid ang inyo kalipay. Kag wala gid sing bisan sin-o nga makakuha sang sina nga kalipay.

23 “Kag kon mag-abot na gani ina nga adlaw indi na kinahanglan nga magpamangkot pa kamo sang bisan ano sa akon. Sa pagkamatuod, ginasugid ko sa inyo nga ang Amay magahatag sa inyo sang bisan ano nga inyo pangayuon sa iya sa akon ngalan.[a] 24 Hasta subong wala pa kamo makapangayo sang bisan ano sa akon ngalan. Pangayo kamo agod makabaton kamo, kag agod mangin bug-os ang inyo kalipay.

Gindaog ni Jesus ang Kalibutan

25 “Ginasugid ko ini nga mga butang sa inyo paagi sa mga paanggid. Pero magaabot ang tion nga indi na ako maggamit sang mga paanggid, kundi ideretso ko na nga isugid sa inyo ang parte sa Amay. 26 Kon mag-abot na ina nga adlaw, kamo mismo ang magapangayo sa Amay sa akon ngalan. Indi na kinahanglan nga ako pa ang magapangayo sa Amay para sa inyo. 27 Kay ang Amay mismo nagahigugma sa inyo tungod kay nagahigugma kamo sa akon, kag nagapati nga ako halin sa Dios. 28 Halin ako sa Amay kag nagkadto ako diri sa kalibutan. Pero karon magahalin na ako sa sini nga kalibutan kag magabalik sa Amay.”

29 Nagsiling dayon ang iya mga sumulunod, “Karon maathag na ang imo ginahambal kay wala ka na nagagamit sang mga paanggid. 30 Karon sigurado na kami nga nahibaluan mo ang tanan nga butang, kay bisan gani nga wala kami nagapamangkot sa imo nahibaluan mo na nga daan ang amon mga ginahunahuna. Gani nagapati kami nga ikaw halin gid man sa Dios.” 31 Nagsabat si Jesus sa ila, “Ti, nagatuo na kamo subong sa akon? 32 Pero magaabot ang tion kag nag-abot na gani subong nga magabululag kamo kag magapalauli, kag bayaan ninyo ako nga nagaisahanon lang. Pero bisan bayaan ninyo ako may kaupod gihapon ako tungod kay kaupod ko ang Amay. 33 Ginasugid ko ini nga mga butang sa inyo agod may kalinong kamo tungod sa inyo pagtuo sa akon. Paantuson kamo sang mga tawo sang kalibutan, pero indi kamo magkahadlok tungod kay gindaog ko na sila.”

Footnotes

  1. 16:23 sa akon ngalan: buot silingon, tungod nga kamo ara sa akon.

16 “All this(A) I have told you so that you will not fall away.(B) They will put you out of the synagogue;(C) in fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God.(D) They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me.(E) I have told you this, so that when their time comes you will remember(F) that I warned you about them. I did not tell you this from the beginning because I was with you,(G) but now I am going to him who sent me.(H) None of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’(I) Rather, you are filled with grief(J) because I have said these things. But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate(K) will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.(L) When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment: about sin,(M) because people do not believe in me; 10 about righteousness,(N) because I am going to the Father,(O) where you can see me no longer; 11 and about judgment, because the prince of this world(P) now stands condemned.

12 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear.(Q) 13 But when he, the Spirit of truth,(R) comes, he will guide you into all the truth.(S) He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14 He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you. 15 All that belongs to the Father is mine.(T) That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”

The Disciples’ Grief Will Turn to Joy

16 Jesus went on to say, “In a little while(U) you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me.”(V)

17 At this, some of his disciples said to one another, “What does he mean by saying, ‘In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me,’(W) and ‘Because I am going to the Father’?”(X) 18 They kept asking, “What does he mean by ‘a little while’? We don’t understand what he is saying.”

19 Jesus saw that they wanted to ask him about this, so he said to them, “Are you asking one another what I meant when I said, ‘In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me’? 20 Very truly I tell you, you will weep and mourn(Y) while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy.(Z) 21 A woman giving birth to a child has pain(AA) because her time has come; but when her baby is born she forgets the anguish because of her joy that a child is born into the world. 22 So with you: Now is your time of grief,(AB) but I will see you again(AC) and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy.(AD) 23 In that day(AE) you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.(AF) 24 Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive,(AG) and your joy will be complete.(AH)

25 “Though I have been speaking figuratively,(AI) a time is coming(AJ) when I will no longer use this kind of language but will tell you plainly about my Father. 26 In that day you will ask in my name.(AK) I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf. 27 No, the Father himself loves you because you have loved me(AL) and have believed that I came from God.(AM) 28 I came from the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”(AN)

29 Then Jesus’ disciples said, “Now you are speaking clearly and without figures of speech.(AO) 30 Now we can see that you know all things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe(AP) that you came from God.”(AQ)

31 “Do you now believe?” Jesus replied. 32 “A time is coming(AR) and in fact has come when you will be scattered,(AS) each to your own home. You will leave me all alone.(AT) Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me.(AU)

33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace.(AV) In this world you will have trouble.(AW) But take heart! I have overcome(AX) the world.”

16 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.

They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.

But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.

But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?

But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

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.

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?

18 They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

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.

26 At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:

27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.

28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.

29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.

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.

31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?

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.

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.
