John 16:28-33 Good News Bible (GNB)

28. I did come from the Father, and I came into the world; and now I am leaving the world and going to the Father.”

29. Then his disciples said to him, “Now you are speaking plainly, without using figures of speech.

30. We know now that you know everything; you do not need someone to ask you questions. This makes us believe that you came from God.”

31. Jesus answered them, “Do you believe now?

32. The time is coming, and is already here, when all of you will be scattered, each of you to your own home, and I will be left all alone. But I am not really alone, because the Father is with me.

33. I have told you this so that you will have peace by being united to me. The world will make you suffer. But be brave! I have defeated the world!”
