New Testament

John 16:9-18 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

9. sin, because they do not believe in me;

10. righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will no longer see me;

11. condemnation, because the ruler of this world has been condemned.

12. “I have much more to tell you, but you cannot bear it now.

13. But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth. He will not speak on his own, but he will speak what he hears, and will declare to you the things that are coming.

14. He will glorify me, because he will take from what is mine and declare it to you.

15. Everything that the Father has is mine; for this reason I told you that he will take from what is mine and declare it to you.

16. “A little while and you will no longer see me, and again a little while later and you will see me.”

17. So some of his disciples said to one another, “What does this mean that he is saying to us, ‘A little while and you will not see me, and again a little while and you will see me,’ and ‘Because I am going to the Father’?”

18. So they said, “What is this ‘little while’ [of which he speaks]? We do not know what he means.”
