1. `These things I have spoken to you, that ye may not be stumbled,
2. out of the synagogues they will put you; but an hour doth come, that every one who hath killed you, may think to offer service unto God;
3. and these things they will do to you, because they did not know the Father, nor me.
4. `But these things I have spoken to you, that when the hour may come, ye may remember them, that I said [them] to you, and these things to you from the beginning I did not say, because I was with you;
5. and now I go away to Him who sent me, and none of you doth ask me, Whither dost thou go?
6. but because these things I have said to you, the sorrow hath filled your heart.
7. `But I tell you the truth; it is better for you that I go away, for if I may not go away, the Comforter will not come unto you, and if I go on, I will send Him unto you;
8. and having come, He will convict the world concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment;
