[John 16:16 KJV] "A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father."
[John 16:16 ESV] ""A little while, and you will see me no longer; and again a little while, and you will see me."" ********* The new Bibles don't have Jesus going to the Father. This undermines that Jesus is a member of the Godhead, and came from the Father, as well as eroding his ascension

Joh 16:16 “A little while, and you will see me no longer; and again a little while, and you will see me.”
Joh 16:17 So some of his disciples said to one another, What is this that he says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’; and, ‘because I am going to the Father’? (ESV)

You can NOT take a single scripture and assume anything without reading it in context with other scriptures before it and after it.

Thank you I didn't bring up the whole passage
Here is the KJV
[John 16:16 KJV] "A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father."
[John 16:17 KJV] "Then said [some] of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?" ********** In John 16:16 Jesus says he goes to the Father, In v17 the disciples repeat what Jesus said; Jesus said he goes to the Father and they repeat it in v17.
In the ESV in v16 Jesus going to the Father is missing, but the disciples are repeating that Jesus did indeed say it in v16. This proves it was there and removed.
