Yhn 16:25–33

16:25 A new era is coming very soon

25 “So far I’ve told you these things in parables, however a time is coming when I’ll no longer be speaking in parables but will tell you things about the father quite plainly. 26 At that time you’ll have my authority to request from the father. I’m not saying that I’ll be asking him on your behalf, 27 no, because he himself loves you all because you have loved me and have believed that I was sent by God. 28 I was sent out by the father and I have come into the world, but I’ll be leaving the world again and returning to the father.”

29 Yeshua’s (Jesus’; Grk. Yesus’) followers responded, “Ah, now you’re speaking plainly and not using parables. 30 Finally we realise that you know everything already and don’t need to ask anyone else, and so we now believe that you came from God.”

31 “So now you all believe?” Yeshua answered. 32 “The time is coming and is here already when you will all be scattered in various directions and will leave me by myself, but I won’t be alone because the father is always with me. 33 I’ve told you these things so that you can all have peace in me. You will have troubles in this world, but be courageous because I have overcome the world.”

25 These things I _have _spoken to _you _all in allegories, an_hour is _coming when I_˓will˒_ no _longer _be _speaking in allegories to _you _all, but I _will _be _reporting concerning the father with _plainness to _you _all.

26 In that the day you _all _will _be _requesting in the name of _me, and I _am_ not _saying to _you _all that I will _be _asking the father for you _all,

27 for/because the father himself is _loving you _all, because you _all have _loved me, and you _all _have _believed that I came _out from god.

28 I _came _out from the father, and I _have _come into the world, in_contrast I _am _leaving the world, and I _am _going to the father.

29 The Disciples of _him are _saying:
Behold, now you _are _speaking with plainness, and you _are _speaking not _one allegory.

30 Now we _have _known that you _have _known all things, and you _are_ not _having need that anyone you may _be _asking.
By this we _are _believing that you _came _out from god.

31 Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) answered to _them, are _you _all _believing Now?

32 Behold, an_hour is _coming and has _come, that you _all _may _be _scattered each to his own, and_ you _all _may _leave _me only, and _yet I_ not _am alone, because the father is with me.

33 I _have _spoken these things to _you _all, in _order _that you _all _may _be _having peace in me.
You _all _are _having tribulation in the world, but be _having _courage, I have _overcome the world.
