John 15

1 “I am the vine, the true one, and my Father is the vinedresser.

I am the true vyne and my father ys an husbande man.

2 Any branch in me which does not produce fruit He lifts up, and every one producing fruit He prunes, so that it may produce more fruit.

Every braunche that beareth not frute in me he will take awaye. And every braunche that beareth frute will he pourge yt it maye bringe moare frute.

3 You are already clean because of the word that I have spoken to you.

Now are ye cleane thorow ye wordes which I have spoke vnto you.

4 Abide in me and I in you. Just as a branch is incapable of producing fruit by itself, except it remains in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in me.

Byde in me and let me byde in you. As ye braunche canot beare frute of it sylfe excepte it byde in the vyne: no more can ye excepte ye abyde in me.

5 “I am the vine, and you are the branches. The one who abides in me and I in him, he is the one who produces much fruit, because apart from me you are incapable of doing anything.

I am the vyne and ye are the braunches. He that abydeth in me and I in him the same bringeth forth moche frute. For with out me can ye do nothinge.

6 If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown out, like a branch, and dries up; well they gather such and throw them into the fire, and he is burned up.

Yf a man byde not in me he ys cast forthe as a braunche and is wyddered: and men gadder it and cast it into the fyre and it burneth.

7 If you abide in me and my sayings abide in you, you will ask whatever you desire and it will happen for you.

Yf ye byde in me and my wordes also byde in you: axe what ye will and it shalbe done to you.

8 My Father is glorified by this: that you produce much fruit; and you will become disciples to me.

Heare in is my father glorified that ye beare moche frute and be made my disciples.

9 “Just as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you; abide in my love.

As the father hath loved me eve so have I leved you. Continue in my love.

10 If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in His love.

Yf ye shall kepe my comaudemetes ye shall byde in my love eve as I have kept my fathers comaundementes and byde in his love.

11 I have spoken these things to you so that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full.

These thinges have I spoken vnto you yt my ioye myght remayne in you and that youre ioye might be full.

12 This is my commandment, that you love one another just as I have loved you.

This is my commaundement that ye love togedder as I have loved you.

13 No one has greater love than this, that someone should lay down his life for his friends.

Gretter love then this hath no man then that a man bestowe his lyfe for his frendes.

14 You are my friends if you do whatever I command you.

Ye are my fredes yf ye do whatsoever I commaunde you.

15 “I no longer call you slaves, because a slave does not know what his owner is doing; rather I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I heard from my Father.

Hence forth call I you not servauntes: for the servaunt knoweth not what his Lorde doeth. But you have I called frendes: for all thinges that I have hearde of my father I have opened to you.

16 It was not you who chose me but I who chose you, and I appointed you so that you should go and produce fruit, and that your fruit should endure, so that whatever you may ask the Father in my name He may give you.

Ye have not chosen me but I have chosen you and ordeyned you that ye go and bringe forthe frute and that youre frute remayne that whatsoever ye shall axe of the father in my name he shulde geve it you.

17 These things I command you so that you love one another.

This comaunde I you that ye love to gedder.

18 “When the world hates you, you can be sure that it has hated me first.

Yf ye worlde hate you ye knowe that he hated me before he hated you.

19 If you were of the world, the world would be fond of its own. So because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, that is why the world hates you.

Yf ye were of the worlde ye worlde wolde love his awne. How be it because ye are not of ye worlde but I have chosen you out of the worlde therfore hateth you the worlde.

20 Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A slave is not greater than his owner.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.

Remember the sayinge that I sayde vnto you: the servaute is not greater then his lorde. Yf they have persecuted me so will they persecute you Yf they have kept my sayinge so will they kepe youres.

21 Now they will do all of these things to you because of my name, in that they do not know the One who sent me.

But all these thinges will they do vnto you for my names sake because they have not knowen him that sent me.

22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be having sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.

If I had not come and spoken vnto them they shulde not have had synne: but now have they nothinge to cloke their synne with all.

23 The one who hates me hates my Father too.

He that hateth me hateth my father.

24 If I had not done among them the works that no one else has done, they would not be having sin; but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.

If I had not done workes amoge the which none other ma dyd they had not had synne. But now have they sene and yet have hated bothe me and my father:

25 However, this was so that the statement written in their law might be fulfilled, ‘They hated me without cause.’

eve that the sayinge myght be fulfilled that is written in theyr lawe: they hated me wtout a cause.

26 “Now when the Enabler comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of the Truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify concerning me.

But when the comforter is come whom I will sende vnto you fro the father which is the sprete of truthe which proceadeth of the father he shall testifie of me.

27 And you also will testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.

And ye shall beare witnes also because ye have bene with me from the begynninge.
