John 16:25-28 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

25. “I have said these things to you in figurative sayings. An hour is coming when I will speak to you in figurative sayings no longer, but I will tell you plainly about the Father.

26. On 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 have gone out from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and am going to the Father.”
