Douay Bible - John Chapter 16

John 16:1
THESE things have I spoken to you, that you may not be scandalized.

John 16:2
They will put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh, that whosoever killeth you, will think that he doth a service to God.

John 16:3
And these things will they do to you; because they have not known the Father, nor me.

John 16:4
But these things I have told you, that when the hour shall come, you may remember that I told you of them.

John 16:5
But I told you not these things from the beginning, because I was with you. And now I go to him that sent me, and none of you asketh me: Whither goest thou?

John 16:6
But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

John 16:7
But I tell you the truth: it is expedient to you that I go: for if I go not, the Paraclete will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

John 16:8
And when he is come, he will convince the world of sin, and of justice, and of judgment.

John 16:9
Of sin: because they believed not in me.

John 16:10
And of justice: because I go to the Father; and you shall see me no longer.

John 16:11
And of judgment: because the prince of this world is already judged.

John 16:12
I have yet many things to say to you: but you cannot bear them now.

John 16:13
But when he, the spirit of truth, is come, he will teach you all truth. For he shall not speak of himself; but what things soever he shall hear, he shall speak; and the things that are to come, he shall shew you.

John 16:14
He shall glorify me; because he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it to you.

John 16:15
All things whatsoever the father hath, are mine. Therefore I said, that he shall receive of mine, and shew it to you.

John 16:16
A little while, and now you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me: because I go to the Father.

John 16:17
Then some of the disciples said one to another: What is this that he saith to us: A little while, and you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me, and, because I go to the Father?

John 16:18
They said therefore: What is this that he saith, A little while? we know not what he speaketh.

John 16:19
And Jesus knew that they had a mind to ask him; and he said to them: Of this do you inquire among yourselves, because I said: A little while, and you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me?

John 16:20
Amen, Amen I say to you, that you shall lament and weep, but the world shall rejoice; and you shall be made sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

John 16:21
A woman, when she is in labour, hath sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she hath brought forth the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.

John 16:22
So also you now indeed have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice; and your joy no man shall take from you.

John 16:23
And in that day you shall not ask me any thing. Amen, amen I say to you: if you ask the Father any thing in my name, he will give it you.

John 16:24
Hitherto you have not asked any thing in my name. Ask, and you shall receive; that your joy may be full.

John 16:25
These things I have spoken to you in proverbs. The hour cometh, when I will no more speak to you in proverbs, but will shew you plainly of the Father.

John 16:26
In that day you shall ask in my name; and I say not to you, that I will ask the Father for you:

John 16:27
For the Father himself loveth you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.

John 16:28
I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again I leave the world, and I go to the Father.

John 16:29
His disciples say to him: Behold, now thou speakest plainly, and speakest no proverb.

John 16:30
Now we know that thou knowest all things, and thou needest not that any man should ask thee. By this we believe that thou camest forth from God.

John 16:31
Jesus answered them: Do you now believe?

John 16:32
Behold, the hour cometh, and it is now come, that you shall be scattered every man to his own, and shall leave me alone; and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

John 16:33
These things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you shall have distress: but have confidence, I have overcome the world.

Douay Bible - Judith Chapter 11

Judith 11:1 Then Holofernes said to her: Be of good comfort, and fear not in thy heart: for I have never hurt a man that was willing to serve Nabuchodonosor the king. Judith 11:2 And if thy people had not despised me, I would never have lifted up my spear against them. Judith 11:3 But now tell me, for what cause hast thou left them, and why it hath pleased thee to come to us? Judith 11:4 And Judith said to him: Receive the words of thy handmaid, for if thou wilt follow the words of thy handmaid, the Lord will do with thee a perfect thing. Judith 11:5 For as Nabuchodonosor the king of the earth liveth, and his power liveth which is in thee for chastising of all straying souls: not only men serve him through thee, but also the beasts of the field obey him. Judith 11:6 For the industry of thy mind is spoken of among all nations, and it is told through the whole world, that thou only art excellent, and mighty in all his kingdom, and thy discipline is cried up in all provinces.
