You will look for Me, but you will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come.”

John 7:34 in context

The verses around it, from John 7.

30 So they tried to seize Him, but no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

31 Many in the crowd, however, believed in Him and said, “When the Christ comes, will He perform more signs than this man?”

32 When the Pharisees heard the crowd whispering these things about Jesus, they and the chief priests sent officers to arrest Him.

33 So Jesus said, “I am with you only a little while longer, and then I am going to the One who sent Me.

34 You will look for Me, but you will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come.”

35 At this, the Jews said to one another, “Where does He intend to go that we will not find Him? Will He go where the Jews are dispersed among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

36 What does He mean by saying, ‘You will look for Me, but you will not find Me,’ and, ‘Where I am, you cannot come’?”

37 On the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood up and called out in a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.

38 Whoever believes in Me, as the Scripture has said: ‘Streams of living water will flow from within him.’”
