"This too shall pass" originated with Persion Sufi poets during the 13th-century. In 1859, Abraham Lincoln gave a speech in which it was quoted. It is often mistaken for being a Bible verse; however, the phrase does not appear literally but rather thematically within.

The exact quote does not appear in The Bible. Most say that it is a paraphrase of teachings from the Bible.

When specific sections are sited some say it is from Corinthians I and some say it is from Ecclesiastes.

John:25

For whoever posted that, John only has 21 chapters. That phrase is in fact not in the bible, but originated with some poets much after the bible was written. The Persian Sufi poets, should it matter.
