John 16:7

ἀλλ' ἐγὼ τὴν ἀλήθειαν λέγω ὑμῖν συμφέρει ὑμῖν ἵνα ἐγὼ ἀπέλθω ἐὰν γὰρ μὴ ἀπέλθω ὁ παράκλητος οὐκ ἐλεύσεται πρὸς ὑμᾶς· ἐὰν δὲ πορευθῶ πέμψω αὐτὸν πρὸς ὑμᾶς
7
Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I away, go not the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

Philippians 1:25

καὶ τοῦτο πεποιθὼς οἶδα ὅτι μενῶ καὶ συμπαραμενῶ πᾶσιν ὑμῖν εἰς τὴν ὑμῶν προκοπὴν καὶ χαρὰν τῆς πίστεως
25
And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;

Philippians 1:22

εἰ δὲ τὸ ζῆν ἐν σαρκί τοῦτό μοι καρπὸς ἔργου καὶ τί αἱρήσομαι οὐ γνωρίζω
22
But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.

Acts 20:29

ἐγὼ γὰρ οἶδα τοῦτο ὅτι εἰσελεύσονται μετὰ τὴν ἄφιξίν μου λύκοι βαρεῖς εἰς ὑμᾶς μὴ φειδόμενοι τοῦ ποιμνίου
29
For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
