John 15

“I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

Every branch in me that doesn’t bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

Every branch in me that beareth not fruit, he taketh it away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he cleanseth it, that it may bear more fruit.

You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.

Already ye are clean because of the word which I have spoken unto you.

Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; so neither can ye, except ye abide in me.

I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit: for apart from me ye can do nothing.

If a man doesn’t remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned.

If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you.

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatsoever ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

“In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.

Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and so shall ye be my disciples.

Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love.

Even as the Father hath loved me, I also have loved you: abide ye in my love.

If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, even as I have kept my Father’s commandments and remain in his love.

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.

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

These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full.

“This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.

This is my commandment, that ye love one another, even as I have loved you.

Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

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

Ye are my friends, if ye do the things which I command you.

No longer do I call you servants, for the servant doesn’t know what his lord does. But I have called you friends, for everything that I heard from my Father, I have made known to you.

No longer do I call you servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I heard from my Father I have made known unto you.

You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

Ye did not choose me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that ye should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should abide: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

“I command these things to you, that you may love one another.

These things I command you, that ye may love one another.

If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.

If the world hateth you, ye know that it hath hated me before it hated you.

If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

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

Remember the word that I said unto you, A servant is not greater than his lord. If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also.

But they will do all these things to you for my name’s sake, because they don’t know him who sent me.

But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me.

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

If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no excuse for their sin.

He who hates me, hates my Father also.

He that hateth me hateth my Father also.

If I hadn’t done among them the works which no one else did, they wouldn’t have had sin. But now they have seen and also hated both me and my Father.

If I had not done among them the works which none other did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.

But this happened so that the word may be fulfilled which was written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’

But this cometh to pass, that the word may be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.

“When the Counselor has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will testify about me.

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 bear witness of me:

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

and ye also bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
