Johannes 16 | 圣经当代译本修订版

圣灵的工作

1 “我把这些事告诉你们，以免你们失去信心。 2 人们将把你们赶出会堂，时候将到，杀害你们的人还以为是在事奉上帝。 3 他们这样做，是因为他们根本不认识父，也不认识我。 4 我把这些事提前告诉你们，是要叫你们到时候可以想起我曾跟你们讲过这些事。我以前没有告诉你们，那是因为我还跟你们在一起。 5 “现在我要去差我来的父那里，你们没有人问我去哪里。 6 因为我把这些事告诉了你们，你们心里充满了忧愁。 7 然而，我把实情告诉你们，我去对你们是有益的，因为如果我不去，护慰者就不会来，我去了就会派祂到你们这里来。 8 祂来了，就要在罪、义、审判方面责备世人。 9 在罪方面责备他们，是因为他们不信我； 10 在义方面责备他们，是因为我要去父那里，你们再也看不到我了； 11 在审判方面责备他们，是因为这世界的王受了审判。 12 “我还有许多事情要告诉你们，可是你们现在不能明白。 13 等到真理之灵来了，祂会引导你们，让你们明白一切的真理。祂不凭自己说话，而是把祂所听见的和有关将来的事告诉你们。 14 祂也要把从我那里领受的指示你们，使我得荣耀。 15 因为父的一切都是我的，所以我才说祂要把从我那里领受的指示你们。

转忧为喜

16 “不久，你们就见不到我了，再过不久，你们还会看见我。” 17 几个门徒彼此议论说：“祂说，‘不久，你们就见不到我了，再过不久，你们还会看见我’，祂又说，‘因为我要去父那里’，这到底是什么意思呢？ 18 祂说‘不久’是什么意思呢？我们真不明白！” 19 耶稣知道他们想问祂，就说：“你们在议论我刚才说的话是什么意思吗？ 20 我实实在在地告诉你们，你们将痛哭、哀号，世人却要欢喜；你们将忧愁，然而你们的忧愁将变为喜乐。 21 妇人分娩时都会痛苦不已，但孩子生下来后，她就会因为这世界添了一个新生命而充满欢乐，忘掉了生产的痛苦。 22 同样，现在你们有忧愁，但到我再见你们的时候，你们的心必欢喜，而且这份喜乐是谁也夺不去的。 23 “到那一天，你们就什么也不用问我了。我实实在在地告诉你们，你们奉我的名无论向父求什么，祂都会赐给你们。 24 你们从来没有奉我的名求过什么，你们现在求，就必得到，好使你们的喜乐满溢。

胜过世界

25 “我一直用比喻跟你们讲这些事，不久，我就不再用比喻了，而是清楚地把父的事告诉你们。 26 到那天，你们将要奉我的名祈求，我不是说我要为你们向父祈求。 27 父爱你们，因为你们一直爱我，并且相信我来自上帝。 28 我从父那里来到这个世界，现在我要离开这个世界回到父那里。” 29 门徒说：“如今你直截了当地告诉我们，不再用比喻了。 30 现在我们知道你无所不知，无需人向你发问，因此我们相信你来自上帝。” 31 耶稣说：“你们现在相信吗？ 32 看啊！时候快到了，现在就是，你们将要分散，各自回家，只留下我一人。不过，我并非一人，因为父与我在一起。 33 我把这些事告诉你们，是要叫你们在我里面有平安。你们在世上会有苦难，但你们要放心，我已经胜过这个世界。”

English Standard Version

1 “I have said all these things to you to keep you from falling away. 2 They will put you out of the synagogues. Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God. 3 And they will do these things because they have not known the Father, nor me.

The Work of the Holy Spirit

4 But I have said these things to you, that when their hour comes you may remember that I told them to you. “I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you. 5 But now I am going 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, 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 if I go, I will send him to you. 8 And when he comes, he will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; 10 concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer; 11 concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged. 12 “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. 13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. 14 He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. 15 All that the Father has is mine; therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.

Your Sorrow Will Turn into Joy

16 “A little while, and you will see me no longer; and again a little while, and you will see me.” 17 So some of his disciples said to one another, “What is this that he says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’; and, ‘because I am going to the Father’?” 18 So they were saying, “What does he mean by ‘a little while’? We do not know what he is talking about.” 19 Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him, so he said to them, “Is this what you are asking yourselves, what I meant by saying, ‘A little while and you will not see me, and again a little while and you will see me’? 20 Truly, truly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy. 21 When a woman is giving birth, she has sorrow because her hour has come, but when she has delivered the baby, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world. 22 So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you. 23 In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, whatever you ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. 24 Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.

I Have Overcome the World

25 “I have said these things to you in figures of speech. The hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures of speech but will tell you plainly about the Father. 26 In that day you will ask in my name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf; 27 for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.* 28 I came from the Father and have come into the world, and now I am leaving the world and going to the Father.” 29 His disciples said, “Ah, now you are speaking plainly and not using figurative speech! 30 Now we know that you know all things and do not need anyone to question you; this is why we believe that you came from God.” 31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe? 32 Behold, the hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, each to his own home, and will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me. 33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
