John 16:5 in Context — John 16

3 Et ils agiront ainsi, parce qu’ils n’ont connu ni le Père ni moi.

4 Je vous ai dit ces choses, afin que, lorsque l’heure sera venue, vous vous souveniez que je vous les ai dites. Je ne vous en ai pas parlé dès le commencement, parce que j’étais avec vous.

5 Maintenant je m’en vais vers celui qui m’a envoyé, et aucun de vous ne me demande: Où vas-tu?

6 Mais, parce que je vous ai dit ces choses, la tristesse a rempli votre cœur.

7 Cependant je vous dis la vérité: il vous est avantageux que je m’en aille, car si je ne m’en vais pas, le consolateur ne viendra pas vers vous;mais, si je m’en vais, je vous l’enverrai.
