John 16 Bishops' Bible 1568
From Textus Receptus
Joh 16:1 These thynges haue I sayde vnto you, because ye shoulde not be offended. Joh 16:2 They shall excomunitate you: yea the time shall come, that who so euer kylleth you, wyll thynke that he doth God seruice. Joh 16:3 And such thynges wyll they do vnto you, because they haue not knowen the father, neither yet me. Joh 16:4 But these thynges haue I tolde you, that when the tyme is come, ye may remeber then that I tolde you. These thynges sayde I not vnto you at the begynnyng, because I was present with you. Joh 16:5 But nowe I go my waye, to hym that sent me, & none of you asketh me, whyther goest thou. Joh 16:6 But because I haue saide such thinges vnto you, your heartes are ful of sorow. Joh 16:7 Neuerthelesse, I tell you the trueth, it is expedient for you that I go away. For yf I go not away, that comforter wyll not come vnto you: But yf I depart, I wyll sende hym vnto you. Joh 16:8 And whe he is come, he wyll rebuke the world of sinne, and of righteousnes, and of iudgement. Joh 16:9 Of sinne, because they beleue not on me. Joh 16:10 Of righteousnes, because I go to my father, and ye shall see me no more. Joh 16:11 Of iudgement, because the prince of this worlde is iudged [alredy.] Joh 16:12 I haue yet many thynges to say vnto you, but ye can not beare them away nowe. Joh 16:13 Howebeit, when he is come, whiche is the spirite of trueth, he wyl leade you into all trueth. He shall not speake of himselfe: but whatsoeuer he shal heare, that shall he speake, and he wyll shewe you thynges to come. Joh 16:14 He shall glorifie me: For he shall receaue of mine, and shal shewe vnto you. Joh 16:15 All thynges that the father hath, are mine: Therfore sayde I [vnto you] that he shall take of mine, & shew vnto you. Joh 16:16 After a whyle, and ye shall not see me, and agayne after a whyle ye shall see me: for I go to the father. Joh 16:17 Then sayde some of his disciples betwene them selues: What is this that he saith vnto vs, after a whyle, & ye shal not see me, and againe, after a whyle ye shal see me: and, that I go to the father? Joh 16:18 They sayde therefore: What is this that he saith, after a whyle? we can not tell what he saith. Joh 16:19 Iesus perceaued that they would aske hym, and sayde vnto them: Do ye enquire among your selues of that I said after a whyle, and, ye shall not see me, & againe, after a while & ye shall see me? Joh 16:20 Ueryly veryly I say vnto you, ye shall wepe and lament, the worlde shall reioyce: ye shall sorowe, but your sorowe shalbe turned to ioy. Joh 16:21 A woman, when she trauayleth, hath sorowe, because her houre is come: but assoone as she is deliuered of the childe, she remembreth no more the anguishe, for ioy that a man is borne into ye world. Joh 16:22 And ye nowe therefore haue sorowe: but I wyll see you agayne, and your heartes shall reioyce, and your ioy shall no man take from you. Joh 16:23 And in that day shall ye aske me no question. Ueryly veryly I say vnto you, whatsoeuer ye shal aske the father in my name, he wyll geue it you. Joh 16:24 Hytherto haue ye asked nothyng in my name: Aske, & ye shall receaue, that your ioy may be full. Joh 16:25 These thynges haue I spoken vnto you by prouerbes. The tyme wyl come, when I shall no more speake vnto you by prouerbes: but I shall shewe you playnely of my father. Joh 16:26 At that day shall ye aske in my name: And I say not vnto you, that I wyll pray vnto my father for you. Joh 16:27 For the father hym selfe loueth you, because ye haue loued me, and haue beleued that I came out from God. Joh 16:28 I went out from the father, and came into the worlde: Agayne, I leaue the worlde, and go to the father. Joh 16:29 His disciples sayde vnto hym: Lo, nowe talkest thou plainely, and speakest no prouerbe. Joh 16:30 Nowe are we sure that thou knowest all thynges, & nedest not, that any man shoulde aske thee [any question:] Therfore beleue we, that thou camest from God. Joh 16:31 Iesus aunswered them: Do ye nowe beleue? Joh 16:32 Beholde, the houre draweth nye, and is alredy come, that ye shalbe scattered euery man to his owne, and shall leaue me alone. And yet am I not alone: For the father is with me. Joh 16:33 These wordes haue I spoken vnto you, that in me ye myght haue peace. For in the worlde shall ye haue tribulation: but be of good cheare, I haue ouercome the worlde.
