John 16:19-21

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

You Will Weep, Then You Will Rejoice When I See You Again

¹⁹ Jesus knew that they were wanting to question Him, and He said to them, “Are you seeking with one another concerning this, that I said, ‘A little while, and you are not going to see Me. And again a little while, and you will see Me’? ²⁰ Truly, truly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be grieved, but your grief will become joy. ²¹ The woman has grief when she gives-birth, because her hour came. But when she bears the child, she no longer remembers the affliction because of the joy that a person was born into the world.
