Old Testament

New Testament

John 16:1-11 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

1. ‘All this I have told you so that you will not fall away.

2. They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God.

3. They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me.

4. I have told you this, so that when their time comes you will remember that I warned you about them. I did not tell you this from the beginning because I was with you,

5. but now I am going to him who sent me. None of you asks me, “Where are you going?”

6. Rather, you are filled with grief because I have said these things.

7. But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

8. When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment:

9. about sin, because people do not believe in me;

10. about righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer;

11. and about judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned.
