St John 16:1-9 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

1. These things have I spoken to you, that you may not be scandalized.

2. They will put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh, that whosoever killeth you, will think that he doth a service to God.

3. And these things will they do to you; because they have not known the Father, nor me.

4. But these things I have told you, that when the hour shall come, you may remember that I told you of them.

5. But I told you not these things from the beginning, because I was with you. And now I go to him that sent me, and none of you asketh me: Whither goest thou?

6. But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

7. But I tell you the truth: it is expedient to you that I go: for if I go not, the Paraclete will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

8. And when he is come, he will convince the world of sin, and of justice, and of judgment.

9. Of sin: because they believed not in me.
