- Nevertheless, I am telling you the truth:
it is better for you that I depart.
For if I do not go away,
the Advocate will not come to you,
whereas if I go,
I will send him to you. - And when he comes,
he will prove the world wrong
about sin and righteousness and judgment. - Until now, in my name,
you have not asked for anything.
Ask and you will receive,
so that your joy may be complete. - I came from the Father
and have come into the world.
Now I am leaving the world
and returning to the Father. - I have told you this
so that in me you may be in peace.
In the world
you will endure suffering.
But take courage!
I have overcome the world.
For you did not receive a spirit of slavery leading to fear; rather, you received the Spirit of adoption, enabling us to cry out, “Abba! Father!” You shall serve the Lord, your God. He will bless your bread and water and take away sickness from your midst.Next verse!With image
