John 16:25-30
New International Version
John 16:25-30
New International Version
25 “Though I have been speaking figuratively,(A) a time is coming(B) when I will no longer use this kind of language but will tell you plainly about my Father. 26 In that day you will ask in my name.(C) I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf. 27 No, the Father himself loves you because you have loved me(D) and have believed that I came from God.(E) 28 I came from the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”(F)
29 Then Jesus’ disciples said, “Now you are speaking clearly and without figures of speech.(G) 30 Now we can see that you know all things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe(H) that you came from God.”(I)

John 16:25-30
King James Version
25 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.
26 At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:
27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.
29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.
30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
