Yochanan 16:4-7 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

4. But these things I have spoken to you, that, when the sha'ah of these things comes, you might have zikaron (remembrance) of these things, that I told you. But I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you.

5. But now I am going to the One who sent me. And none of you asks me, Where are you going?

6. But because I have spoken these things to you, agmat nefesh (grief) has filled your levavot (heart).

7. But I tell HaEmes (the truth), it is better for you that I go away. For if I do not go away, the Melitz Yosher (Praklit, Advocate, Counselor, Helper in Court) will not come to you. But if go, I will send Him (the Ruach Hakodesh) to you.
