< John 16 >

1 “I have said these things to you so that you wouldn’t be caused to stumble.
ταυτα λελαληκα υμιν ινα μη σκανδαλισθητε
2 They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers service to God.
αποσυναγωγουσ ποιησουσιν υμασ αλλ ερχεται ωρα ινα πασ ο αποκτεινασ υμασ δοξη λατρειαν προσφερειν τω θεω
3 They will do these things because they have not known the Father nor me.
και ταυτα ποιησουσιν οτι ουκ εγνωσαν τον πατερα ουδε εμε
4 But I have told you these things so that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you about them. I didn’t tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
αλλα ταυτα λελαληκα υμιν ινα οταν ελθη η ωρα μνημονευητε αυτων οτι εγω ειπον υμιν ταυτα δε υμιν εξ αρχησ ουκ ειπον οτι μεθ υμων ημην
5 But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’
νυν δε υπαγω προσ τον πεμψαντα με και ουδεισ εξ υμων ερωτα με που υπαγεισ
6 But because I have told you these things, sorrow has filled your heart.
αλλ οτι ταυτα λελαληκα υμιν η λυπη πεπληρωκεν υμων την καρδιαν
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I don’t go away, the Counselor won’t come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.
αλλ εγω την αληθειαν λεγω υμιν συμφερει υμιν ινα εγω απελθω εαν γαρ εγω μη απελθω ο παρακλητοσ ουκ ελευσεται προσ υμασ εαν δε πορευθω πεμψω αυτον προσ υμασ
8 When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment;
και ελθων εκεινοσ ελεγξει τον κοσμον περι αμαρτιασ και περι δικαιοσυνησ και περι κρισεωσ
9 about sin, because they don’t believe in me;
περι αμαρτιασ μεν οτι ου πιστευουσιν εισ εμε
10 about righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you won’t see me any more;
περι δικαιοσυνησ δε οτι προσ τον πατερα μου υπαγω και ουκετι θεωρειτε με
11 about judgment, because the prince of this world has been judged.
περι δε κρισεωσ οτι ο αρχων του κοσμου τουτου κεκριται
12 “I still have many things to tell you, but you can’t bear them now.
ετι πολλα εχω λεγειν υμιν αλλ ου δυνασθε βασταζειν αρτι
13 However, when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming.
οταν δε ελθη εκεινοσ το πνευμα τησ αληθειασ οδηγησει υμασ εισ πασαν την αληθειαν ου γαρ λαλησει αφ εαυτου αλλ οσα αν ακουση λαλησει και τα ερχομενα αναγγελει υμιν
14 He will glorify me, for he will take from what is mine and will declare it to you.
εκεινοσ εμε δοξασει οτι εκ του εμου ληψεται και αναγγελει υμιν
15 All things that the Father has are mine; therefore I said that he takes of mine and will declare it to you.
παντα οσα εχει ο πατηρ εμα εστιν δια τουτο ειπον οτι εκ του εμου λαμβανει και αναγγελει υμιν
16 “A little while, and you will not see me. Again a little while, and you will see me.”
μικρον και ου θεωρειτε με και παλιν μικρον και οψεσθε με οτι υπαγω προσ τον πατερα
17 Some of his disciples therefore said to one another, “What is this that he says to us, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me;’ and, ‘Because I go to the Father’?”
ειπον ουν εκ των μαθητων αυτου προσ αλληλουσ τι εστιν τουτο ο λεγει ημιν μικρον και ου θεωρειτε με και παλιν μικρον και οψεσθε με και οτι εγω υπαγω προσ τον πατερα
18 They said therefore, “What is this that he says, ‘A little while’? We don’t know what he is saying.”
ελεγον ουν τουτο τι εστιν ο λεγει το μικρον ουκ οιδαμεν τι λαλει
19 Therefore Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them, “Do you inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’?
εγνω ουν ο ιησουσ οτι ηθελον αυτον ερωταν και ειπεν αυτοισ περι τουτου ζητειτε μετ αλληλων οτι ειπον μικρον και ου θεωρειτε με και παλιν μικρον και οψεσθε με
20 Most certainly I tell you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.
αμην αμην λεγω υμιν οτι κλαυσετε και θρηνησετε υμεισ ο δε κοσμοσ χαρησεται υμεισ δε λυπηθησεσθε αλλ η λυπη υμων εισ χαραν γενησεται
21 A woman, when she gives birth, has sorrow because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she doesn’t remember the anguish any more, for the joy that a human being is born into the world.
η γυνη οταν τικτη λυπην εχει οτι ηλθεν η ωρα αυτησ οταν δε γεννηση το παιδιον ουκετι μνημονευει τησ θλιψεωσ δια την χαραν οτι εγεννηθη ανθρωποσ εισ τον κοσμον
22 Therefore you now have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.
και υμεισ ουν λυπην μεν νυν εχετε παλιν δε οψομαι υμασ και χαρησεται υμων η καρδια και την χαραν υμων ουδεισ αιρει αφ υμων
23 “In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.
και εν εκεινη τη ημερα εμε ουκ ερωτησετε ουδεν αμην αμην λεγω υμιν οτι οσα αν αιτησητε τον πατερα εν τω ονοματι μου δωσει υμιν
24 Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.
εωσ αρτι ουκ ητησατε ουδεν εν τω ονοματι μου αιτειτε και ληψεσθε ινα η χαρα υμων η πεπληρωμενη
25 “I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. But the time is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father.
ταυτα εν παροιμιαισ λελαληκα υμιν αλλ ερχεται ωρα οτε ουκετι εν παροιμιαισ λαλησω υμιν αλλα παρρησια περι του πατροσ αναγγελω υμιν
26 In that day you will ask in my name; and I don’t say to you that I will pray to the Father for you,
εν εκεινη τη ημερα εν τω ονοματι μου αιτησεσθε και ου λεγω υμιν οτι εγω ερωτησω τον πατερα περι υμων
27 for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.
αυτοσ γαρ ο πατηρ φιλει υμασ οτι υμεισ εμε πεφιληκατε και πεπιστευκατε οτι εγω παρα του θεου εξηλθον
28 I came from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”
εξηλθον παρα του πατροσ και εληλυθα εισ τον κοσμον παλιν αφιημι τον κοσμον και πορευομαι προσ τον πατερα
29 His disciples said to him, “Behold, now you are speaking plainly, and using no figures of speech.
λεγουσιν αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου ιδε νυν παρρησια λαλεισ και παροιμιαν ουδεμιαν λεγεισ
30 Now we know that you know all things, and don’t need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came from God.”
νυν οιδαμεν οτι οιδασ παντα και ου χρειαν εχεισ ινα τισ σε ερωτα εν τουτω πιστευομεν οτι απο θεου εξηλθεσ
31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?
απεκριθη αυτοισ ο ιησουσ αρτι πιστευετε
32 Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
ιδου ερχεται ωρα και νυν εληλυθεν ινα σκορπισθητε εκαστοσ εισ τα ιδια και εμε μονον αφητε και ουκ ειμι μονοσ οτι ο πατηρ μετ εμου εστιν
33 I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”
ταυτα λελαληκα υμιν ινα εν εμοι ειρηνην εχητε εν τω κοσμω θλιψιν εχετε αλλα θαρσειτε εγω νενικηκα τον κοσμον
