Johannes 16

1 Dette har jeg talet til Eder, at I skulle ikke forarges.2 De skulle udelukke Eder af Synagogerne, ja den Tid skal komme, at hver den, som ihjelslaaer Eder, skal mene, at ham viser Gud en Dyrkelse.3 Og dette skulle de gjøre Eder, fordi de hverken kjende Faderen, ei heller mig.4 Men dette har jeg talet til Eder, paa det naar Timen kommer, I skulle komme ihu, at jeg sagde Eder det; men dette sagde jeg Eder ikke fra Begyndelsen, fordi jeg var hos Eder.5 Men nu gaaer jeg hen til den, som mig udsendte, og ingen af Eder spørger mig: hvor gaaer du hen?6 Men fordi jeg har talet dette til Eder, har Bedrøvelse opfyldt Eders Hjerte.7 Men jeg siger Eder sandhed: det er Eder gavnligt, at jeg gaaer bort, thi gaaer jeg ikke bort, skal Talsmanden ikke komme til Eder; men gaaer jeg bort saa vil jeg sende ham til Eder.8 Og naar han kommer, skal han overbevise Verden og Synd og om Retfærdighed og om Dom,9 om Synd, fordi de troe ikke paa mig;10 men om Retfærdighed, fordi jeg gaaer hen til min Fader, og I see mig ikke længere;11 men om Dom, fordi denne Verdens Fyrste er dømt.12 Jeg har endnu meget at sige Eder; men nu kunne I ikke bære det.13 Men naar han, den Sandheds Aand, kommer, skal han veilede Eder til al Sandhed; thi han skal ikke tale af sig selv, men hvadsomhelst han hører, skal han tale, og de tilkommende Ting skal han forkynde Eder.14 Han skal herliggjøre mig; thi han skal tage af Mit og forkynde Eder.15 Alt hvad Faderen har, er Mit; derfor sagde jeg, at han skal tage af Mit og forkynde Eder.16 Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke see mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I see mig; thi jeg gaaer hen til Faderen.17 Da sagde nogle af hans Disciple til hverandre: hvad er dette, som han siger os: om en liden Stund skulle I ikke see mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I see mig, og: thi jeg gaaer hentil Faderen?18 Da sagde de: hvad er det, som han siger: om en liden Stund? Vi forstaae ikke, hvad han taler.19 Da vidste Jesus, at de vilde spørge ham, og han sagde til dem: derom bespørge I Eder indbyrdes, at jeg sagde: om en liden Stund skulle I ikke see mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I see mig.20 Sandelig, sandelig siger jeg eder: I skulle græde og hyle, men Verden skal glæde sig; I skulle være bedrøvede, men Eders Bedrøvelse skal vorde til Glæde.21 Kvinden, naar hun føder, har Bedrøvelse, fordi hendes Time er kommen; men naar hun har født Barnet, kommer hun ikke mere den Trængsel, ihu for Glæde, at et Menneske er født til Verden.22 Ogsaa I have da vel nu Bedrøvelse; men jeg vil see Eder igjen, og Eders Hjerte skal glædes, og Ingen tager Eders Glæde fra Eder.23 Og paa den samme Dag skulle I ikke spørge mig om Noget. Sandelig, sandelig siger jeg eder, at hvadsomhelst I bede Faderen om i mit Navn, skal han give Eder.24 Hidindtil have I ikke bedet om Noget i mit Navn; beder, og I skulle faae, og Eders Glæde maa blive fuldkommen.25 Dette har jeg talet til Eder ved Lignelser; men den Time kommer, da jeg ikke mere skal tale med Eder ved Lignelser; men den Time kommer, da jeg ikke mere skal tale med Eder ved Lignelser, men frit ud forkynde Eder om min Fader.26 Paa den samme Dag skulle I bede i mit Navn, og jeg siger Eder ikke, at jeg vil bede Faderen for Eder;27 thi Faderen selv elsker Eder, efterdi I have elsket mig og troet at jeg er udgangen fra Gud.28 Jeg udgik fra Faderen og kom til Verden; jeg forlader Verden igjen og gaaer til Faderen.29 Hans Disciple sige til ham: see, nu taler du frit ud og siger ingen Lignelse.30 Nu vide vi, at du veed alle Ting og har ikke behov, at Nogen spørger dig; desaarsag troe vi, at du udgik fra Gud.31 Jesus svarede dem: nu troe I!32 Se, den Time kommer og er allerede kommen, at I skulle adspredes hver til Sit og forlade mig alene; dog jeg er ikke alene, thi Faderen er med mig.33 Dette har jeg talet til Eder, paa det I skulle have Fred i mig. I Verden skulle I have Trængsel; men værer frimodige, jeg har overvundet Verden.

John 16

1 “I have told you all these things so that you will not fall away.ts2 They will put you out oft the synagogue,s yet a timet is coming when the one who kills you will think he is offering service to God.s3 Theyt will do these things because they have not known the Father or me.s

4 But I have told you these thingst so that when their timet comes, you will remember that I told you about them.t
“I did not tell you these things from the beginning because I was with you.s5 But now I am going to the one who sent me,s and not one of you is asking me, ‘Where are you going?’s6 Instead your hearts are filled with sadnesst because I have said these things to you.7 But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I am going away. For if I do not go away, the Advocatet will not come to you, but if I go, I will send him to you.8 And when het comes, he will prove the world wrongt concerning sin andt righteousness andt judgment –9 concerning sin, becauset they do not believe in me;s10 concerning righteousness,t becauset I am going to the Father and you will see me no longer;

11 and concerning judgment,s becauset the ruler of this worlds has been condemned.t
12 “I have many more things to say to you,s but you cannot beart them now.13 But when he,t the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guidet you into all truth.s For he will not speak on his own authority,t but will speak whatever he hears, and will tell yout what is to come.t14 Het will glorify me,t because he will receivet from me what is minet and will tell it to you.t15 Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said the Spiritt will receive from me what is minet and will tell it to you.t

16 In a little while yout will see me no longer; again after a little while, yout will see me.”s
17 Then some of his disciples said to one another, “What is the meaning of what he is saying,t ‘In a little while yout will not see me; again after a little while, yout will see me,’ and, ‘because I am going to the Father’?”s

18 So they kept on repeating,t “What is the meaning of what he says,t ‘In a little while’?t We do not understandt what he is talking about.”t
19 Jesus could seets that they wanted to ask him about these things,t sot he said to them, “Are you askingt each other about this – that I said, ‘In a little while yout will not see me; again after a little while, yout will see me’?20 I tell you the solemn truth,t you will weept and wail,t but the world will rejoice; you will be sad,t but your sadness will turn intot joy.21 When a woman gives birth, she has distresss because her timet has come, but when her child is born, she no longer remembers the suffering because of her joy that a human beingt has been born into the world.s22 So also you have sorrowt now, but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.s23 At that timet you will ask me nothing. I tell you the solemn truth,t whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you.s

24 Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive it,t so that your joy may be complete.
25 “I have told you these things in obscure figures of speech;t a timet is coming when I will no longer speak to you in obscure figures, but will tell yout plainlyt about the Father.26 At that timet you will ask in my name, and I do not sayt that I will ask the Father on your behalf.27 For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.s

28 I came from the Father and entered into the world, but in turn,t I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”s
29 His disciples said, “Look, now you are speaking plainlyt and not in obscure figures of speech!ts

30 Now we know that you know everythingt and do not need anyonet to ask you anything.t Because of thist we believe that you have come from God.”
31 Jesus replied,t “Do you now believe?32 Look, a timet is coming – and has come – when you will be scattered, each one to his own home,t and I will be left alone.s Yett I am not alone, because my Fathert is with me.

33 I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble and suffering,t but take couraget – I have conquered the world.”ts
