If I had not done works before their eyes, such as no other man has ever done, they would be without sin; but now they have seen and hated me and also my Father,

But when the Comforter comes, whom I will send to you from my Father, the Spirit of truth which proceeds from my Father, he will testify concerning me.

But now I am going to him who sent me, and yet no one of you asks me, Where are you going?

But because I told you these things, sorrow has come and filled your hearts.

But I tell you the truth, It is better for you that I should go away; for if I do not go away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I should go, I will send him to you.

Again, I have many other things to tell you, but you cannot grasp them now.

But when the Spirit of truth is come, he will guide you into all the truth; for he will not speak from himself, but what he hears that he will speak; and he will make known to you things which are to come in the future.

Truly, truly, I say to you, that you will weep and wail, and yet the world will rejoice; and you will be sad, but your sadness will be changed into gladness.

When a woman is in travail, she is depressed, because her day has arrived; but when she has given birth to a son, she no longer remembers her troubles, because of the joy that a male child * is born into the world.

So you also are depressed; but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no man will take away from you.

I have spoken these things in figures; but the time is coming, when I will not speak to you in figures, but will plainly explain to you concerning the Father.

These things I have said to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but have courage; I have conquered the world.

What I request is for them; I make no request for the world, but for those whom you have given to me; because they are yours.

Hereafter I am not in the world, but these are in the world; and I am coming to you. O holy Father, protect them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are.

What I request is not that you should take them out of the world, but that you should protect them from evil.

I am not making request for these alone, but also for the sake of those who believe in me through their word.

O my righteous Father, the world did not know you, but I have known you; and these have known that you have sent me.

But Simon Peter had a sword, and he drew it and struck the high priest''s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant''s name was Malech.

But Simon stood outside near the door. Then the other disciple, whom the high priest knew, went out and told the portress, and brought in Simon.

Jesus answered and said to him, If I have spoken any evil, testify to the evil; but if it is good, why did you strike me?
