29 His disciples said to Him, “See, now You are speaking plainly, and using no figure of speech!
30 Now we are sure that aYou know all things, and have no need that anyone should question You. By this bwe believe that You came forth from God.”  
31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?
32 aIndeed the hour is coming, yes, has now come, that you will be scattered, beach to his own, and will leave Me alone. And cyet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.  
33 These things I have spoken to you, that ain Me you may have peace. bIn the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, cI have overcome the world.”

John 16:29-30

His disciples said, . . . now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb—hardly more so than before; the time for perfect plainness was yet to come; but having caught a glimpse of His meaning (it was nothing more), they eagerly express their satisfaction, as if glad to make anything of His words. How touchingly does this show both the simplicity of their hearts and the infantile character of their faith!
