John 16:14-20 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

14. He will glorify Me, because He will take from what is Mine and declare it to you.

15. Everything the Father has is Mine. This is why I told you that He takes from what is Mine and will declare it to you.

16. “A little while and you will no longer see Me; again a little while and you will see Me.”

17. Therefore some of His disciples said to one another, “What is this He tells us: ‘A little while and you will not see Me; again a little while and you will see Me’; and, ‘because I am going to the Father’ ? ”

18. They said, “What is this He is saying, ‘A little while’? We don’t know what He’s talking about! ”

19. Jesus knew they wanted to question Him, so He said to them, “Are you asking one another about what I said, ‘A little while and you will not see Me; again a little while and you will see Me’?

20. “I assure you: You will weep and wail, but the world will rejoice. You will become sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn to joy.
