13: νυν δε προς σε ερχομαι και ταυτα λαλω εν τω κοσμω ινα εχωσιν την χαραν την εμην πεπληρωμενην εν αυτοις— edit Textus Receptus
13: And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.- edit KJV text
13: And now I come to thee: and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy filled in themselves.— edit Douay text


My joy fulfilled, &c. See "Jn 15:11".

The expression "my joy" here probably refers to the joy of the apostles respecting Jesus -- the joy which would result from his resurrection, ascension, and intercession in heaven.
