Yohanes 16:14-16

16:14 He ¹  will glorify me, ²  because he will receive ³  from me what is mine ⁴  and will tell it to you. ⁵  16:15 Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said the Spirit ⁶  will receive from me what is mine ⁷  and will tell it to you. ⁸  16:16 In a little while you ⁹  will see me no longer; again after a little while, you ¹⁰  will see me.” ¹¹ 

[16:14]  ¹ tn Grk “That one.”

[16:14]  ² tn Or “will honor me.”

[16:14]  ³ tn Or “he will take.”

[16:14]  ⁴ tn The words “what is mine” are not in the Greek text, but are implied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

[16:14]  ⁵ tn Or “will announce it to you.”

[16:15]  ⁶ tn Grk “I said he”; the referent (the Spirit) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[16:15]  ⁷ tn The words “what is mine” are not in the Greek text, but are implied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

[16:15]  ⁸ tn Or “will announce it to you.”

[16:16]  ⁹ tn Grk “A little while, and you.”

[16:16]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “and again a little while, and you.”

[16:16]  ¹¹ sn The phrase after a little while, you will see me is sometimes taken to refer to the coming of the Holy Spirit after Jesus departs, but (as at 14:19) it is much more probable that it refers to the postresurrection appearances of Jesus to the disciples. There is no indication in the context that the disciples will see Jesus only with “spiritual” sight, as would be the case if the coming of the Spirit is in view.
