¹ “These things have I spoken to you, so that you wouldn’t be caused to stumble.

¹"Dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I ikke skulle forarges.

² They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time comes that whoever kills you will think that he offers service to God.

²De skulle udelukke eder af Synagogerne, ja, den Tid skal komme, at hver den, som slår eder ihjel, skal mene, at han viser Gud en Dyrkelse.

³ They will do these things TR adds “to you” because they have not known the Father, nor me.

³Og dette skulle de gøre, fordi de hverken kende Faderen eller mig.

⁴ But I have told you these things, so that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you about them. I didn’t tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.

⁴Men dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I, når Timen kommer, skulle komme i Hu, at jeg har sagt eder det; men dette sagde jeg eder ikke fra Begyndelsen, fordi jeg var hos eder.

⁵ But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’

⁵Men nu går jeg hen til ham, som sendte mig, og ingen af eder spørger mig: Hvor går du hen?

⁶ But because I have told you these things, sorrow has filled your heart.

⁶Men fordi jeg har talt dette til eder, har Bedrøvelsen opfyldt eders Hjerte.

⁷ Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away, for if I don’t go away, the Counselor won’t come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.

⁷Men jeg siger eder Sandheden: Det er eder gavnligt, at jeg går bort, thi går jeg ikke bort, kommer Talsmanden ikke til eder; men går jeg bort, så vil jeg sende ham til eder.

⁸ When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment;

⁸Og når han kommer, skal han overbevise Verden om Synd og om Retfærdighed og om Dom.

⁹ about sin, because they don’t believe in me;

⁹Om Synd, fordi de ikke tro på mig;

¹⁰ about righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you won’t see me any more;

¹⁰men om Retfærdighed, fordi jeg går til min Fader, og I se mig ikke længer;

¹¹ about judgment, because the prince of this world has been judged.

¹¹men om Dom, fordi denne Verdens Fyrste er dømt.

¹² “I have yet many things to tell you, but you can’t bear them now.

¹²Jeg har endnu meget at sige eder; men I kunne ikke bære det nu.

¹³ However when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming.

¹³Men når han, Sandhedens Ånd, kommer, skal han vejlede eder til hele Sandheden; thi han skal ikke tale af sig selv, men hvad som helst han hører, skal han tale, og de kommende Ting skal han forkynde eder.

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

¹⁴Han skal herliggøre mig; thi han skal tage af mit og forkynde eder.

¹⁵ All things whatever the Father has are mine; therefore I said that he takes TR reads “will take” instead of “takes” of mine, and will declare it to you.

¹⁵Alt, hvad Faderen har, er mit; derfor sagde jeg, at han skal tage af mit og forkynde eder.

¹⁶ A little while, and you will not see me. Again a little while, and you will see me.”

¹⁶Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig længer, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig."

¹⁷Some of his disciples therefore said to one another, “What is this that he says to us, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me;’ and, ‘Because I go to the Father?’ ”

¹⁷Da sagde nogle af hans Disciple til hverandre: "Hvad er dette, som han siger os: Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig, og: Jeg går hen til Faderen?"

¹⁸They said therefore, “What is this that he says, ‘A little while?’ We don’t know what he is saying.”

¹⁸De sagde altså: "Hvad er dette, han siger: Om en liden Stund? Vi forstå ikke, hvad han taler."

¹⁹Therefore Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them, “Do you inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me?’

¹⁹Jesus vidste, at de vilde spørge ham, og han sagde til dem: "I spørge hverandre om dette, at jeg sagde: Om en liden Stund skulle I ikke se mig, og atter om en liden Stund skulle I se mig.

²⁰ Most certainly I tell you, that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.

²⁰Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, I skulle græde og jamre, men Verden skal glæde sig; I skulle være bedrøvede, men eders Bedrøvelse skal blive til Glæde.

²¹ A woman, when she gives birth, has sorrow, because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she doesn’t remember the anguish any more, for the joy that a human being is born into the world.

²¹Når Kvinden føder, har hun Bedrøvelse, fordi hendes Time er kommen; men når hun har født Barnet, kommer hun ikke mere sin Trængsel i Hu af Glæde over, at et Menneske er født til Verden.

²² Therefore you now have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.

²²Også I have da vel nu Bedrøvelse, men jeg skal se eder igen, og eders Hjerte skal glædes, og ingen tager eders Glæde fra eder.

²³ “In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.

²³Og på den Dag skulle I ikke spørge mig om noget. Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, hvad som helst I bede Faderen om, skal han give eder i mit Navn.

²⁴ Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.

²⁴Hidindtil have I ikke bedt om noget i mit Navn; beder, og I skulle få, for at eders Glæde må blive fuldkommen.

²⁵ I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. But the time is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father.

²⁵Dette har jeg talt til eder i Lignelser; der kommer en Time, da jeg ikke mere skal tale til eder i Lignelser, men frit ud forkynde eder om Faderen.

²⁶ In that day you will ask in my name; and I don’t say to you, that I will pray to the Father for you,

²⁶På den Dag skulle I bede i mit Navn, og jeg siger ikke til eder, at jeg vil bede Faderen for eder;

²⁷ for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from God.

²⁷thi Faderen selv elsker eder, fordi I have elsket mig og troet, at jeg er udgået fra Gud.

²⁸ I came out from the Father, and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.”

²⁸Jeg udgik fra Faderen og er kommen til Verden; jeg forlader Verden igen og går til Faderen."

²⁹His disciples said to him, “Behold, now you speak plainly, and speak no figures of speech.

²⁹Hans Disciple sige til ham: "Se, nu taler du frit ud og siger ingen Lignelse.

³⁰Now we know that you know all things, and don’t need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came forth from God.”

³⁰Nu vide vi, at du ved alle Ting og ikke har nødig, at nogen spørger dig; desårsag tro vi, at du er udgået fra Gud."

³¹Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?

³¹Jesus svarede dem: "Nu tro I!

³² Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

³²Se, den Time kommer, og den er kommen, da I skulle adspredes hver til sit og lade mig alene; dog, jeg er ikke alene, thi Faderen er med mig.

³³ I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”

³³Dette har jeg talt til eder, for at I skulle have Fred i mig. I Verden have I Trængsel; men værer frimodige, jeg har overvundet Verden."
