|
|
1 |
I am the true vine, and my Father is the
husbandman. |
|
|
2 |
Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he
taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may
bring forth more fruit.
|
|
3 |
Now ye are clean through the word which I have
spoken unto you. |
|
4 |
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot
bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye
abide in me.
|
|
5 |
I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that
abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without
me ye can do nothing.
|
|
6 |
If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a
branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire,
and they are burned.
|
|
7 |
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye
shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
|
|
8 |
Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much
fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.
|
|
9 |
As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved
you: continue ye in my love.
|
|
10 |
If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my
love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.
|
|
11 |
These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy
might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
|
|
12 |
This is my commandment, That ye love one
another, as I have loved you.
|
|
13 |
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man
lay down his life for his friends.
|
|
14 |
Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command
you. |
|
15 |
Henceforth I call you not servants; for the
servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for
all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
|
|
16 |
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you,
and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your
fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name,
he may give it you.
|
|
17 |
These things I command you, that ye love one
another. |
|
18 |
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me
before it hated you.
|
|
19 |
If ye were of the world, the world would love
his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of
the world, therefore the world hateth you.
|
|
20 |
Remember the word that I said unto you, The
servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will
also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
|
|
21 |
But all these things will they do unto you for
my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me.
|
|
22 |
If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had
not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.
|
|
23 |
He that hateth me hateth my Father also. |
|
24 |
If I had not done among them the works which
none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and
hated both me and my Father.
|
|
25 |
But this cometh to pass, that the word might be
fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
|
|
26 |
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send
unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from
the Father, he shall testify of me:
|
|
27 |
And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have
been with me from the beginning.
