John 16:5-7
New Testament for Everyone
5 But now I’m going to the one who sent me. None of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ 6 But because I’ve said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. 7 However, it’s the truth that I’m telling you: it’s better for you that I should go away. If I don’t go away, you see, the helper won’t come to you. But if I go away, I will send him to you.

John 16:5-7
New International Version
5 but now I am going to him who sent me.(A) None of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’(B) 6 Rather, you are filled with grief(C) 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(D) will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.(E)
