John 16:16-18

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁶ a little while, and ye do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go away unto the Father.'

¹⁷ Therefore said [some] of his disciples one to another, `What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me, and, Because I go away unto the Father?'

¹⁸ they said then, `What is this he saith -- the little while? we have not known what he saith.'
