1 ταυτα λελαληκα υμιν ινα μη σκανδαλισθητε
1 “I have said these things to you so that you wouldn’t be caused to stumble.
2 αποσυναγωγουσ ποιησουσιν υμασ αλλ ερχεται ωρα ινα πασ ο αποκτεινασ υμασ δοξη λατρειαν προσφερειν τω θεω
2 They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers service to God.
3 και ταυτα ποιησουσιν οτι ουκ εγνωσαν τον πατερα ουδε εμε
3 They will do these things because they have not known the Father nor me.
4 αλλα ταυτα λελαληκα υμιν ινα οταν ελθη η ωρα μνημονευητε αυτων οτι εγω ειπον υμιν ταυτα δε υμιν εξ αρχησ ουκ ειπον οτι μεθ υμων ημην
4 But I have told you these things so that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you about them. I didn’t tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
5 νυν δε υπαγω προσ τον πεμψαντα με και ουδεισ εξ υμων ερωτα με που υπαγεισ
5 But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’
6 αλλ οτι ταυτα λελαληκα υμιν η λυπη πεπληρωκεν υμων την καρδιαν
6 But because I have told you these things, sorrow has filled your heart.
7 αλλ εγω την αληθειαν λεγω υμιν συμφερει υμιν ινα εγω απελθω εαν γαρ εγω μη απελθω ο παρακλητοσ ουκ ελευσεται προσ υμασ εαν δε πορευθω πεμψω αυτον προσ υμασ
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I don’t go away, the Counselor won’t come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.
8 και ελθων εκεινοσ ελεγξει τον κοσμον περι αμαρτιασ και περι δικαιοσυνησ και περι κρισεωσ
8 When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment;
9 περι αμαρτιασ μεν οτι ου πιστευουσιν εισ εμε
9 about sin, because they don’t believe in me;
10 περι δικαιοσυνησ δε οτι προσ τον πατερα μου υπαγω και ουκετι θεωρειτε με
10 about righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you won’t see me any more;
11 περι δε κρισεωσ οτι ο αρχων του κοσμου τουτου κεκριται
11 about judgment, because the prince of this world has been judged.
12 ετι πολλα εχω λεγειν υμιν αλλ ου δυνασθε βασταζειν αρτι
12 “I still have many things to tell you, but you can’t bear them now.
13 οταν δε ελθη εκεινοσ το πνευμα τησ αληθειασ οδηγησει υμασ εισ πασαν την αληθειαν ου γαρ λαλησει αφ εαυτου αλλ οσα αν ακουση λαλησει και τα ερχομενα αναγγελει υμιν
13 However, when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming.
14 εκεινοσ εμε δοξασει οτι εκ του εμου ληψεται και αναγγελει υμιν
14 He will glorify me, for he will take from what is mine and will declare it to you.
15 παντα οσα εχει ο πατηρ εμα εστιν δια τουτο ειπον οτι εκ του εμου λαμβανει και αναγγελει υμιν
15 All things that the Father has are mine; therefore I said that he takes of mine and will declare it to you.
16 μικρον και ου θεωρειτε με και παλιν μικρον και οψεσθε με οτι υπαγω προσ τον πατερα
16 “A little while, and you will not see me. Again a little while, and you will see me.”
17 ειπον ουν εκ των μαθητων αυτου προσ αλληλουσ τι εστιν τουτο ο λεγει ημιν μικρον και ου θεωρειτε με και παλιν μικρον και οψεσθε με και οτι εγω υπαγω προσ τον πατερα
17 Some of his disciples therefore said to one another, “What is this that he says to us, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me;’ and, ‘Because I go to the Father’?”
18 ελεγον ουν τουτο τι εστιν ο λεγει το μικρον ουκ οιδαμεν τι λαλει
18 They said therefore, “What is this that he says, ‘A little while’? We don’t know what he is saying.”
19 εγνω ουν ο ιησουσ οτι ηθελον αυτον ερωταν και ειπεν αυτοισ περι τουτου ζητειτε μετ αλληλων οτι ειπον μικρον και ου θεωρειτε με και παλιν μικρον και οψεσθε με
19 Therefore Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them, “Do you inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’?
20 αμην αμην λεγω υμιν οτι κλαυσετε και θρηνησετε υμεισ ο δε κοσμοσ χαρησεται υμεισ δε λυπηθησεσθε αλλ η λυπη υμων εισ χαραν γενησεται
20 Most certainly I tell you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.
21 η γυνη οταν τικτη λυπην εχει οτι ηλθεν η ωρα αυτησ οταν δε γεννηση το παιδιον ουκετι μνημονευει τησ θλιψεωσ δια την χαραν οτι εγεννηθη ανθρωποσ εισ τον κοσμον
21 A woman, when she gives birth, has sorrow because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she doesn’t remember the anguish any more, for the joy that a human being is born into the world.
22 και υμεισ ουν λυπην μεν νυν εχετε παλιν δε οψομαι υμασ και χαρησεται υμων η καρδια και την χαραν υμων ουδεισ αιρει αφ υμων
22 Therefore you now have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.
23 και εν εκεινη τη ημερα εμε ουκ ερωτησετε ουδεν αμην αμην λεγω υμιν οτι οσα αν αιτησητε τον πατερα εν τω ονοματι μου δωσει υμιν
23 “In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.
24 εωσ αρτι ουκ ητησατε ουδεν εν τω ονοματι μου αιτειτε και ληψεσθε ινα η χαρα υμων η πεπληρωμενη
24 Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.
25 ταυτα εν παροιμιαισ λελαληκα υμιν αλλ ερχεται ωρα οτε ουκετι εν παροιμιαισ λαλησω υμιν αλλα παρρησια περι του πατροσ αναγγελω υμιν
25 “I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. But the time is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father.
26 εν εκεινη τη ημερα εν τω ονοματι μου αιτησεσθε και ου λεγω υμιν οτι εγω ερωτησω τον πατερα περι υμων
26 In that day you will ask in my name; and I don’t say to you that I will pray to the Father for you,
27 αυτοσ γαρ ο πατηρ φιλει υμασ οτι υμεισ εμε πεφιληκατε και πεπιστευκατε οτι εγω παρα του θεου εξηλθον
27 for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.
28 εξηλθον παρα του πατροσ και εληλυθα εισ τον κοσμον παλιν αφιημι τον κοσμον και πορευομαι προσ τον πατερα
28 I came from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”
29 λεγουσιν αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου ιδε νυν παρρησια λαλεισ και παροιμιαν ουδεμιαν λεγεισ
29 His disciples said to him, “Behold, now you are speaking plainly, and using no figures of speech.
30 νυν οιδαμεν οτι οιδασ παντα και ου χρειαν εχεισ ινα τισ σε ερωτα εν τουτω πιστευομεν οτι απο θεου εξηλθεσ
30 Now we know that you know all things, and don’t need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came from God.”
31 απεκριθη αυτοισ ο ιησουσ αρτι πιστευετε
31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?
32 ιδου ερχεται ωρα και νυν εληλυθεν ινα σκορπισθητε εκαστοσ εισ τα ιδια και εμε μονον αφητε και ουκ ειμι μονοσ οτι ο πατηρ μετ εμου εστιν
32 Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
33 ταυτα λελαληκα υμιν ινα εν εμοι ειρηνην εχητε εν τω κοσμω θλιψιν εχετε αλλα θαρσειτε εγω νενικηκα τον κοσμον
33 I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”

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 …
