1 ESTAS cosas os he hablado, para que no os escandalicéis.

2 Os echarán de los sinagogas; y aun viene la hora, cuando cualquiera que os matare, pensará que hace servició á Dios.

3 Y estas cosas os harán, porque no conocen al Padre ni á mí.

4 Mas os he dicho esto, para que cuando aquella hora viniere, os acordeis que yo os lo había dicho. Esto empero no os lo dije al principio, porque yo estaba con vosotros.

5 Mas ahora voy al que me envió; y ninguno de vosotros me pregunta: ¿Adónde vas?

6 Antes, porque os he hablado estas cosas, tristeza ha henchido vuestro corazón.

7 Empero yo os digo la verdad: Os es necesario que yo vaya: porque si yo no fuese, el Consolador no vendría á vosotros; mas si yo fuere, os le enviaré.

8 Y cuando él viniere redargüirá al mundo de pecado, y de justicia, y de juicio:

9 De pecado ciertamente, por cuanto no creen en mí;

10 Y de justicia, por cuanto voy al Padre, y no me veréis más;

11 Y de juicio, por cuanto el príncipe de este mundo es juzgado.

12 Aun tengo muchas cosas que deciros, mas ahora no las podéis llevar.

13 Pero cuando viniere aquel Espíritu de verdad, él os guiará á toda verdad; porque no hablará de sí mismo, sino que hablará todo lo que oyere, y os hará saber las cosas que han de venir.

14 El me glorificará: porque tomará de lo mío, y os lo hará saber.

15 Todo lo que tiene el Padre, mío es: por eso dije que tomará de lo mío, y os lo hará saber.

16 Un poquito, y no me veréis; y otra vez un poquito, y me veréis: porque yo voy al Padre.

17 Entonces dijeron algunos de sus discípulos unos á otros: ¿Qué es esto que nos dice: Un poquito, y no me veréis; y otra vez un poquito, y me veréis: y, por que yo voy al Padre?

18 Decían pues: ¿Qué es esto que dice: Un poquito? No entendemos lo que habla.

19 Y conoció Jesús que le querían preguntar, y díjoles: ¿Preguntáis entre vosotros de esto que dije: Un poquito, y no me veréis, y otra vez un poquito, y me veréis?

20 De cierto, de cierto os digo, que vosotros lloraréis y lamentaréis, y el mundo se alegrará: empero aunque vosotros estaréis tristes, vuestra tristeza se tornará en gozo.

21 La mujer cuando pare, tiene dolor, porque es venida su hora; mas después que ha parido un niño, ya no se acuerda de la angustia, por el gozo de que haya nacido un hombre en el mundo.

22 También, pues, vosotros ahora ciertamente tenéis tristeza; mas otra vez os veré, y se gozará vuestro corazón, y nadie quitará de vosotros vuestro gozo.

23 Y aquel día no me preguntaréis nada. De cierto, de cierto os digo, que todo cuanto pidiereis al Padre en mi nombre, os lo dará.

24 Hasta ahora nada habéis pedido en mi nombre: pedid, y recibiréis, para que vuestro gozo sea cumplido.

25 Estas cosas os he hablado en proverbios: la hora viene cuando ya no os hablaré por proverbios, pero claramente os anunciaré del Padre.

26 Aquel día pediréis en mi nombre: y no os digo, que yo rogaré al Padre por vosotros;

27 Pues el mismo Padre os ama, porque vosotros me amasteis, y habéis creído que yo salí de Dios.

28 Salí del Padre, y he venido al mundo: otra vez dejo el mundo, y voy al Padre.

29 Dícenle sus discípulos: He aquí, ahora hablas claramente, y ningún proverbio dices.

30 Ahora entendemos que sabes todas las cosas, y no necesitas que nadie te pregunte: en esto creemos que has salido de Dios.

31 Respondióles Jesús: ¿Ahora creéis?

32 He aquí, la hora viene, y ha venido, que seréis esparcidos cada uno por su parte, y me dejaréis solo: mas no estoy solo, porque el Padre está conmigo.

33 Estas cosas os he hablado, para que en mí tengáis paz. En el mundo tendréis aflicción: mas confiad, yo he vencido al mundo.

1 I have said these things to you so that you may not be in doubt.

2 They will put you out of the Synagogues: yes, the time is coming when whoever puts you to death will have the belief that he is doing God's pleasure.

3 They will do these things to you because they have not had knowledge of the Father or of me.

4 I have said these things to you so that when the time comes, what I have said may come to your mind. I did not say them to you at the first, because then I was still with you.

5 But now I am going to him who sent me; and not one of you says to me, Where are you going?

6 But your hearts are full of sorrow because I have said these things.

7 But what I am saying is true: my going is for your good: for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

8 And he, when he comes, will make the world conscious of sin, and of righteousness, and of being judged:

9 Of sin, because they have not faith in me;

10 Of righteousness, because I go to the Father and you will see me no more;

11 Of being judged, because the ruler of this world has been judged.

12 I have still much to say to you, but you are not strong enough for it now.

13 However, when he, the Spirit of true knowledge, has come, he will be your guide into all true knowledge: for his words will not come from himself, but whatever has come to his hearing, that he will say: and he will make clear to you the things to come.

14 He will give me glory, because he will take of what is mine, and make it clear to you.

15 Everything which the Father has is mine: that is why I say, He will take of what is mine and will make it clear to you.

16 After a little time you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me.

17 So some of the disciples said one to another, What is this he is saying, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me? and, I am going to the Father?

18 So they said again and again, What is this he is saying, A little time? His words are not clear to us.

19 Jesus saw that they had a desire to put the question to him, so he said to them, Is this what you are questioning one with another, why I said, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me?

20 Truly I say to you, You will be weeping and sorrowing, but the world will be glad: you will be sad, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.

21 When a woman is about to give birth she has sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she has given birth to the child, the pain is put out of her mind by the joy that a man has come into the world.

22 So you have sorrow now: but I will see you again, and your hearts will be glad, and no one will take away your joy.

23 And on that day you will put no questions to me. Truly I say to you, Whatever request you make to the Father, he will give it to you in my name.

24 Up to now you have made no request in my name: do so, and it will be answered, so that your hearts may be full of joy.

25 All this I have said to you in veiled language: but the time is coming when I will no longer say things in veiled language but will give you knowledge of the Father clearly.

26 In that day you will make requests in my name: and I do not say that I will make prayer to the Father for you,

27 For the Father himself gives his love to you, because you have given your love to me and have had faith that I came from God.

28 I came out from the Father and have come into the world: again, I go away from the world and go to the Father.

29 His disciples said, Now you are talking clearly and not in veiled language.

30 Now we are certain that you have knowledge of all things and have no need for anyone to put questions to you: through this we have faith that you came from God.

31 Jesus made answer, Have you faith now?

32 See, a time is coming, yes, it is now here, when you will go away in all directions, every man to his house, and I will be by myself: but I am not by myself, because the Father is with me.

33 I have said all these things to you so that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble: but take heart! I have overcome the world.
