1 These things have I spoken to you, that you may not be scandalized.
1 ESTAS cosas os he hablado, para que no os escandalicéis.
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.
2 Os echarán de las sinagogas; y aun viene la hora, cuando cualquiera que os matare, pensará que hace servicio á Dios.
3 And these things will they do to you; because they have not known the Father, nor me.
3 Y estas cosas os harán, porque no conocen al Padre ni á mí.
4 But these things I have told you, that when the hour shall come, you may remember that I told you of them.
4 Mas os he dicho esto, para que cuando aquella hora viniere, os acordéis que yo os lo había dicho. Esto empero no os lo dije al principio, porque yo estaba con vosotros.
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?
5 Mas ahora voy al que me envió; y ninguno de vosotros me pregunta: ¿Adónde vas?
6 But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow hath filled your heart.
6 Antes, porque os he hablado estas cosas, tristeza ha henchido vuestro corazón.
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.
7 Empero yo os digo la verdad: Os es necesario que yo vaya: porque si yo no fuese, el Consolador no vendría á vosotros; mas si yo fuere, os le enviaré.
8 And when he is come, he will convince the world of sin, and of justice, and of judgment.
8 Y cuando él viniere redargüirá al mundo de pecado, y de justicia, y de juicio:
9 Of sin: because they believed not in me.
9 De pecado ciertamente, por cuanto no creen en mí;
10 And of justice: because I go to the Father; and you shall see me no longer.
10 Y de justicia, por cuanto voy al Padre, y no me veréis más;
11 And of judgment: because the prince of this world is already judged.
11 Y de juicio, por cuanto el príncipe de este mundo es juzgado.
12 I have yet many things to say to you: but you cannot bear them now.
12 Aun tengo muchas cosas que deciros, mas ahora no las podéis llevar.
13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will teach you all truth. For he shall not speak of himself; but what things soever he shall hear, he shall speak; and the things that are to come, he shall shew you.
13 Pero cuando viniere aquel Espíritu de verdad, él os guiará á toda verdad; porque no hablará de sí mismo, sino que hablará todo lo que oyere, y os hará saber las cosas que han de venir.
14 He shall glorify me; because he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it to you.
14 El me glorificará: porque tomará de lo mío, y os [lo] hará saber.
15 All things whatsoever the Father hath, are mine. Therefore I said, that he shall receive of mine, and shew it to you.
15 Todo lo que tiene el Padre, mío es: por eso dije que tomará de lo mío, y os [lo] hará saber.
16 A little while, and now you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me: because I go to the Father.
16 Un poquito, y no me veréis; y otra vez un poquito, y me veréis: porque yo voy al Padre.
17 Then some of the disciples said one to another: What is this that he saith to us: A little while, and you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me, and, because I go to the Father?
17 Entonces dijeron [algunos] de sus discípulos unos á otros: ¿Qué es esto que nos dice: Un poquito, y no me veréis; y otra vez un poquito, y me veréis: y, porque yo voy al Padre?
18 They said therefore: What is this that he saith, A little while? we know not what he speaketh.
18 Decían pues: ¿Qué es esto que dice: Un poquito? No entendemos lo que habla.
19 And Jesus knew that they had a mind to ask him; and he said to them: Of this do you inquire among yourselves, because I said: A little while, and you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me?
19 Y conoció Jesús que le querían preguntar, y díjoles: ¿Preguntáis entre vosotros de esto que dije: Un poquito, y no me veréis, y otra vez un poquito, y me veréis?
20 Amen, amen I say to you, that you shall lament and weep, but the world shall rejoice; and you shall be made sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
20 De cierto, de cierto os digo, que vosotros lloraréis y lamentaréis, y el mundo se alegrará: empero aunque vosotros estaréis tristes, vuestra tristeza se tornará en gozo.
21 A woman, when she is in labour, hath sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she hath brought forth the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.
21 La mujer cuando pare, tiene dolor, porque es venida su hora; mas después que ha parido un niño, ya no se acuerda de la angustia, por el gozo de que haya nacido un hombre en el mundo.
22 So also you now indeed have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice; and your joy no man shall take from you.
22 También, pues, vosotros ahora ciertamente tenéis tristeza; mas otra vez os veré, y se gozará vuestro corazón, y nadie quitará de vosotros vuestro gozo.
23 And in that day you shall not ask me any thing. Amen, amen I say to you: if you ask the Father any thing in my name, he will give it you.
23 Y aquel día no me preguntaréis nada. De cierto, de cierto os digo, que todo cuanto pidiereis al Padre en mi nombre, os [lo] dará.
24 Hitherto you have not asked any thing in my name. Ask, and you shall receive; that your joy may be full.
24 Hasta ahora nada habéis pedido en mi nombre: pedid, y recibiréis, para que vuestro gozo sea cumplido.
25 These things I have spoken to you in proverbs. The hour cometh, when I will no more speak to you in proverbs, but will shew you plainly of the Father.
25 Estas cosas os he hablado en proverbios: la hora viene cuando ya no os hablaré por proverbios, pero claramente os anunciaré del Padre.
26 In that day you shall ask in my name; and I say not to you, that I will ask the Father for you:
26 Aquel día pediréis en mi nombre: y no os digo, que yo rogaré al Padre por vosotros;
27 For the Father himself loveth you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
27 Pues el mismo Padre os ama, porque vosotros me amasteis, y habéis creído que yo salí de Dios.
28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again I leave the world, and I go to the Father.
28 Salí del Padre, y he venido al mundo: otra vez dejo el mundo, y voy al Padre.
29 His disciples say to him: Behold, now thou speakest plainly, and speakest no proverb.
29 Dícenle sus discípulos: He aquí, ahora hablas claramente, y ningún proverbio dices.
30 Now we know that thou knowest all things, and thou needest not that any man should ask thee. By this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
30 Ahora entendemos que sabes todas las cosas, y no necesitas que nadie te pregunte: en esto creemos que has salido de Dios.
31 Jesus answered them: Do you now believe?
31 Respondióles Jesús: ¿Ahora creéis?
32 Behold, the hour cometh, and it is now come, that you shall be scattered every man to his own, and shall leave me alone; and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
32 He aquí, la hora viene, y ha venido, que seréis esparcidos cada uno por su parte, y me dejaréis solo: mas no estoy solo, porque el Padre está conmigo.
33 These things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you shall have distress: but have confidence, I have overcome the world.
33 Estas cosas os he hablado, para que en mí tengáis paz. En el mundo tendréis aflicción: mas confiad, yo he vencido al mundo.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The medicine for all the wounds of the soul, and the one propitiation for the offences of men, is to believe on Christ; nor can any one be cleansed at all, whether from original sin which he derived from Adam, in whom all men have sinned, and become by nature children of wrath; or from the sins which they have …

When the Lord Jesus had foretold His disciples the persecutions they would have to suffer after His departure, He went on to say: "And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you; but now I go my way to Him that sent me." And here the first thing we have to look at …

Great is the tyranny of despondency, and much courage do we need so as to stand manfully against the feeling, and after gathering from it what is useful, to let the superfluous go.

… under their feet, and turn again and rend you." For the Lord Himself, although He never told a lie, yet showed that He was concealing certain truths, when He said, "I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now." And the Apostle Paul, too, says: "And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as …

For, saith He, "In sorrow thou shalt bring forth children;" and, "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat thy bread;" and, "In the world ye shall have tribulation." But of our state there, no such word at all is spoken, but all the contrary; that "grief and sorrow and sighing have fled away." And that "men shall come …
