19. Jesus knew they wanted to question Him, so He said to them, “Are you asking one another about what I said, ‘A little while and you will not see Me; again a little while and you will see Me’?
20. “I assure you: You will weep and wail, but the world will rejoice. You will become sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn to joy.
21. When a woman is in labor she has pain because her time has come. But when she has given birth to a child, she no longer remembers the suffering because of the joy that a person has been born into the world.
22. So you also have sorrow now. But I will see you again. Your hearts will rejoice, and no one will rob you of your joy.
23. In that day you will not ask Me anything.“I assure you: Anything you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.
