John 16:5-7

Holman Christian Standard Bible

The Counselor’s Ministry

⁵ “But now I am going away^(A) to Him who sent Me, and not one of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going?’^{(B) 6} Yet, because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. ⁷ Nevertheless, I am telling you the truth.^(C) It is for your benefit that I go away, because if I don’t go away the Counselor will not come to you. If I go, I will send Him to you.^(D)
