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.
