John 15:1
I am the true grapevine, and my Father is the farmer.
John 15:2
Every branch in me not bearing fruit, he removes it. And every branch that bears fruit, he prunes it, so that it may bear more fruit.
John 15:3
Now ye are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you.
John 15:4
Dwell in me, and I in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it dwells in the grapevine, so neither ye, if ye do not dwell in me.
John 15:5
I am the grapevine, ye are the branches. He who dwells in me, and I in him, this man bears much fruit, because without me ye can do nothing.
John 15:6
If any man does not dwell in me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered. And they gather them, and cast them into the fire, and are burned.
John 15:7
If ye dwell in me, and my sayings dwell in you, ye will ask whatever ye may want, and it will be done to you.
John 15:8
By this my Father is glorified, that ye may bear much fruit, and ye will become my disciples.
John 15:9
As the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Dwell ye in my love.
John 15:10
If ye keep my commandments, ye will dwell in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments, and dwell in his love.
John 15:11
These things I have spoken to you that my joy may dwell in you, and your joy may be full.
John 15:12
This is my commandment, that ye love each other, just as I have loved you.
John 15:13
Greater love has no man than this, that some man lay down his life for his friends.
John 15:14
Ye are my friends, if ye do as many things as I command you.
John 15:15
I no longer call you bondmen, because the bondman does not know what his lord does. But I have called you friends, because all things that I heard from my Father, I made known to you.
John 15:16
Ye did not choose out me, but I chose out you, and appointed you, so that ye should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit may remain, so that anything whatever ye may ask of the Father in my name, he may give you.
John 15:17
These things I command you, so that ye may love each other.
John 15:18
If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before you.
John 15:19
If ye were of the world, the world would love its own, but because ye are not of the world (instead I chose you out of the world), because of this the world hates you.
John 15:20
Remember the word that I said to you, A bondman is not greater than his lord. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they kept my word, they will keep yours also.
John 15:21
But all these things they will do to you because of my name, because they have not known him who sent me.
John 15:22
If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.
John 15:23
He who hates me hates my Father also.
John 15:24
If I had not done among them the works that no other man has done, they would not have had sin, but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.
John 15:25
But, that the word that is written in their law may be fulfilled, They hated me without cause.
John 15:26
But when the helper comes whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth that proceeds from the Father, that will testify about me.
John 15:27
And ye also testify, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
