John 15
1<FR>I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.<Fr>
2<FR>Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.<Fr>
3<FR>Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.<Fr>
4<FR>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.<Fr>
5<FR>I am the vine, ye the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.<Fr>
6<FR>If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast into the fire, and they are burned.<Fr>
7<FR>If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.<Fr>
8<FR>Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.<Fr>
9<FR>As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.<Fr>
10<FR>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.<Fr>
11<FR>These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and your joy might be full.<Fr>
12<FR>This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.<Fr>
13<FR>Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.<Fr>
14<FR>Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.<Fr>
15<FR>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.<Fr>
16<FR>Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.<Fr>
17<FR>These things I command you, that ye love one another.<Fr>
18<FR>If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before you.<Fr>
19<FR>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.<Fr>
20<FR>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.<Fr>
21<FR>But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.<Fr>
22<FR>If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.<Fr>
23<FR>He that hateth me hateth my Father also.<Fr>
24<FR>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.<Fr>
25<FR>But , that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, <FO>They hated me without a cause.<Fo><Fr>
26<FR>But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:<Fr>
27<FR>And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.<Fr>
