John 14:26-16:33

Worsley(i) 26 But the comforter, that is the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said unto you. 27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you; not as the world giveth, do I give unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 28 Ye have heard, how I said unto you, "I am going away, and I shall come again to you." If ye loved me, ye would rejoice that I said, I am going to the Father: for my Father is greater than I. 29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that when it cometh to pass ye may believe. 30 I shall not have much more conversation with you: for the prince of this world is coming; not that he hath any thing in me, 31 but that the world may know that I love the Father, and that I do as the Father hath commanded me. Arise, let us go hence. 15 1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman: 2 every branch in me that beareth not fruit He taketh away, and every one that beareth fruit, He purgeth, that it may bear more fruit. 3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 4 Abide therefore in me, and I will abide in you: for as the branch cannot bear fruit of it self, unless it abide in the vine; so neither can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches; he that abideth in me, and I in him, beareth much fruit: but without me ye can do nothing. 6 If any one abide not in me, he is cast out as a useless branch and withereth: and they gather them up, and throw them into the fire, and they are burnt. 7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask what ye will, and it shall be granted you. 8 Herein is my father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and so shall ye be my disciples. 9 As the Father hath loved me, and I have loved you, continue in my love: 10 and if ye keep my commandments ye will continue in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and continue in his love. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy in you may continue, and that your joy may be full. 12 This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 Greater love hath no one than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends: 14 and ye are my friends, if ye do what I command you. 15 I no longer stile you servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doth: but I have called you friends; for whatsoever I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you. 16 Ye did not first choose me, but I chose you, and have appointed you to go forth, and bear fruit, and that your fruit should be lasting: that whatsoever ye ask the Father in my name, He may give it you. 17 These commands I give you, that ye should love one another. 18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me first. 19 If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. 20 Remember what I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they have observed my word, they will also observe yours. 21 But all these things will they do unto you, on my account, because they know not Him that sent me. 22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 He that hateth me, hateth my Father also. 24 If I had not done among them such works as no other ever did, they had not comparatively had sin: but now they have both seen, and hated, both me and my Father. 25 But thus it is that the word might be fulfilled, which is written in their law, they hated me without a cause. 26 But when the comforter is come, whom I will send to you from the Father, (even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father,) He shall testify of me. 27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning. 16 1 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye may not be offended: 2 for they will excommunicate you: yea, the time is coming, that whosoever killeth you, will think that he offers an acceptable service to God. 3 And these things will they do unto you; because they have not known the Father, nor me. 4 But I have told you these things, that when the time cometh, ye may remember that I told you of them. Though I did not tell you of them at the beginning, because I was with you. 5 But now I am going away to Him that sent me, and yet none of you asketh me, Whither art thou going? but because I have said these things to you, 6 sorrow hath filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I should go away; for if I go not away, the comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you. 8 And when He comes, He will convince the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgement: 9 of sin, because they believe not on me; 10 of righteousness, because I am going to my Father and ye shall see me no more; 11 and of judgement, because the prince of this world is judged. 12 I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now. 13 But when the Spirit of truth is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He will not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that will He speak, and will shew you things to come. 14 He shall glorify me, for He shall take of mine and shew it unto you. 15 All that the Father hath are mine: therefore I said, that He shall take of mine and shew it unto you. 16 A little while and ye shall not see me: and again a little while and ye shall see me, because I am going to the Father. 17 Some of his disciples therefore said one to another, What is the meaning of this that He saith to us, A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a little while and ye shall see me, and---because I am going to the Father? 18 they said therefore, What is this little while that He speaks of? we do not understand what He means. 19 Now Jesus knew that they wanted to ask Him, and therefore said unto them, Are ye enquiring among each other about this, that I said, A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a little while and ye shall see me? 20 Verily I tell you, that ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. 21 A woman when she is in labor, hath sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she is delivered of the child, she thinks no more of the anguish, for joy, that a man is born into the world. 22 And ye therefore now have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy shall no one take from you. 23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing: but I assure you, that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, He will give it you. 24 Hitherto ye have asked for nothing in my name: ask and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full. 25 These things have I spoken to you in parables: but the time is coming when I shall no more speak to you in parables, but tell you with plainness concerning the Father. 26 In that day ye shall ask in my name; and I do not say that I will ask the Father on your behalf. 27 For the Father himself loveth you; because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came from God: and I indeed came from the Father, 28 and am come into the world: but now I am leaving the world again, and am going to the Father. 29 His disciples said unto Him, Now indeed Thou speakest plainly, and usest no parable. 30 Now we are convinced that Thou knowest all things, and hast no need that any one should ask Thee: by this we believe that Thou camest forth from God. 31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? 32 Behold, the time is coming, and is even now come, that ye shall be dispersed every one his own way, and shall leave me alone: but I am not alone, for the Father is with me. 33 These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have trouble: but be of good courage, I have overcome the world.
