23 | He who hates me hates my Father also. |
24 | If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. |
25 | It is to fulfil the word that is written in their law, `They hated me without a cause.' |
26 | But when the Counselor comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness to me; |
27 | and you also are witnesses, because you have been with me from the beginning. |
1 | "I have said all this to you to keep you from falling away. |
2 | They will put you out of the synagogues; indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God. |
3 | And they will do this because they have not known the Father, nor me. |
4 | But I have said these things to you, that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you of them. "I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you. |
5 | But now I am going to him who sent me; yet none of you asks me, `Where are you going?' |
6 | But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your hearts. |
7 | Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. |
8 | And when he comes, he will convince the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: |
9 | concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; |
10 | concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no more; |
11 | concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged. |
12 | "I have yet many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. |
13 | When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth; for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. |
14 | He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. |
