In a little while you will see me no longer; again after a little while, you will see me.”

Then some of his disciples said to one another, “What is the meaning of what he is saying, ‘In a little while you will not see me; again after a little while, you will see me,’ and, ‘because I am going to the Father’?”

Jesus could see that they wanted to ask him about these things, so he said to them, “Are you asking each other about this – that I said, ‘In a little while you will not see me; again after a little while, you will see me’?

Then Jesus said, “I will be with you for only a little while longer, and then I am going to the one who sent me.

So they kept on repeating, “What is the meaning of what he says, ‘In a little while’? We do not understand what he is talking about.”

In a little while the world will not see me any longer, but you will see me; because I live, you will live too.

Children, I am still with you for a little while. You will look for me, and just as I said to the Jewish religious leaders, ‘Where I am going you cannot come,’ now I tell you the same.

Jesus replied, “The light is with you for a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, so that the darkness may not overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.
