John 16:4-11
New King James Version
4 But these things I have told you, that when [a]the time comes, you may remember that I told you of them.
“And these things I did not say to you at the beginning, because I was with you.
The Work of the Holy Spirit
5 “But now I (A)go away to Him who sent Me, and none of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, (B)sorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but (C)if I depart, I will send Him to you. 8 And when He has (D)come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9 (E)of sin, because they do not believe in Me; 10 (F)of righteousness, (G)because I go to My Father and you see Me no more; 11 (H)of judgment, because (I)the ruler of this world is judged.

John 16:4-11
New International Version
4 I have told you this, so that when their time comes you will remember(A) that I warned you about them. I did not tell you this from the beginning because I was with you,(B) 5 but now I am going to him who sent me.(C) None of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’(D) 6 Rather, you are filled with grief(E) because I have said these things. 7 But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate(F) will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.(G) 8 When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 about sin,(H) because people do not believe in me; 10 about righteousness,(I) because I am going to the Father,(J) where you can see me no longer; 11 and about judgment, because the prince of this world(K) now stands condemned.
