John 15
1 I Am that true vine, and my Father is that husband man.
I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman:
2 Euery branch that beareth not fruite in me, he taketh away: and euery one that beareth fruite, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruite.
every branch in me that beareth not fruit He taketh away, and every one that beareth fruit, He purgeth, that it may bear more fruit.
3 Nowe are ye cleane through the worde, which I haue spoken vnto you.
Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
4 Abide in me, and I in you: as the branche cannot beare fruite of it selfe, except it abide in the vine, no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
Abide therefore in me, and I will abide in you: for as the branch cannot bear fruit of it self, unless it abide in the vine; so neither can ye, except ye abide in me.
5 I am that vine: ye are the branches: he that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruite: for without me can ye doe nothing.
I am the vine, ye are the branches; he that abideth in me, and I in him, beareth much fruit: but without me ye can do nothing.
6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branche, and withereth: and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they burne.
If any one abide not in me, he is cast out as a useless branch and withereth: and they gather them up, and throw them into the fire, and they are burnt.
7 If ye abide in me, and my wordes abide in you, aske what ye wil, and it shalbe done to you.
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask what ye will, and it shall be granted you.
8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye beare much fruite, and be made my disciples.
Herein is my father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and so shall ye be my disciples.
9 As the father hath loued me, so haue I loued you: continue in that my loue.
As the Father hath loved me, and I have loved you, continue in my love:
10 If ye shall keepe my commandements, ye shall abide in my loue, as I haue kept my Fathers commandements, and abide in his loue.
and if ye keep my commandments ye will continue in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and continue in his love.
11 These things haue I spoken vnto you, that my ioy might remaine in you, and that your ioy might be full.
These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy in you may continue, and that your joy may be full.
12 This is my commandement, that ye loue one another, as I haue loued you.
This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you.
13 Greater loue then this hath no man, when any man bestoweth his life for his friendes.
Greater love hath no one than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends:
14 Ye are my friendes, if ye doe whatsoeuer I commaund you.
and ye are my friends, if ye do what I command you.
15 Henceforth call I you not seruants: for the seruant knoweth not what his master doeth: but I haue called you friends: for all things that I haue heard of my Father, haue I made knowen to you.
I no longer stile you servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doth: but I have called you friends; for whatsoever I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you.
16 Ye haue not chosen me, but I haue chosen you, and ordeined you, that ye goe and bring foorth fruite, and that your fruite remaine, that whatsoeuer ye shall aske of the Father in my Name, he may giue it you.
Ye did not first choose me, but I chose you, and have appointed you to go forth, and bear fruit, and that your fruit should be lasting: that whatsoever ye ask the Father in my name, He may give it you.
17 These things commaund I you, that ye loue one another.
These commands I give you, that ye should love one another.
18 If the worlde hate you, ye knowe that it hated me before you.
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me first.
19 If ye were of the worlde, the world woulde loue his owne: but because ye are not of ye world, but I haue chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
If ye were of the world, the world would love its 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 vnto you, The seruant is not greater then his master. If they haue persecuted me, they will persecute you also: if they haue kept my worde, they will also keepe yours.
Remember what 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 observed my word, they will also observe yours.
21 But all these things will they doe vnto you for my Names sake, because they haue not knowen him that sent me.
But all these things will they do unto you, on my account, because they know not Him that sent me.
22 If I had not come and spoken vnto them, they shoulde not haue had sinne: but nowe haue they no cloke for their sinne.
If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no excuse for their sin.
23 He that hateth me, hateth my Father also.
He that hateth me, hateth my Father also.
24 If I had not done workes among them which none other man did, they had not had sinne: but nowe haue they both seene, and haue hated both me, and my Father.
If I had not done among them such works as no other ever did, they had not comparatively had sin: but now they have both seen, and hated, both me and my Father.
25 But it is that the worde might be fulfilled, that is written in their Lawe, They hated me without a cause.
But thus it is that the word might be fulfilled, which is written in their law, they hated me without a cause.
26 But when that Comforter shall come, whom I will send vnto you from the Father, euen the Spirit of trueth, which proceedeth of the Father, he shall testifie of me.
But when the comforter is come, whom I will send to you from the Father, (even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, ) He shall testify of me.
27 And ye shall witnesse also, because ye haue bene with me from the beginning.
And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
