[1] “I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer. [2] 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. [3] You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. [4] 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. [5] 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. [6] 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. [7] If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you. [8] “In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples. [9] Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love. [10] 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. [11] I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full. [12] “This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you. [13] Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. [14] You are my friends if you do whatever I command you. [15] 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. [16] 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. [17] “I command these things to you, that you may love one another. [18] If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you. [19] 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. [20] 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. [21] But they will do all these things to you for my name’s sake, because they don’t know him who sent me. [22] If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. [23] He who hates me, hates my Father also. [24] 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. [25] But this happened so that the word may be fulfilled which was written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’† [26] “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. [27] You will also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.

The True Vine

[1] I G1473 am G1510 the G3588 true G228 vine, G288 and G2532 my G3450 Father G3962 is G2076 the G3588 husbandman. G1092 [2] Every G3956 branch G2814 in G1722 me G1698 that beareth G5342 not G3361 fruit G2590 he taketh away: G142 G846 and G2532 every G3956 branch that G3588 beareth G5342 fruit, G2590 he purgeth G2508 it, G846 that G2443 it may bring forth G5342 more G4119 fruit. G2590 [3] Now G2235 ye G5210 are G2075 clean G2513 through G1223 the G3588 word G3056 which G3739 I have spoken G2980 unto you. G5213 [4] Abide G3306 in G1722 me, G1698 and I G2504 in G1722 you. G5213 As G2531 the G3588 branch G2814 cannot G3756 G1410 bear G5342 fruit G2590 of G575 itself, G1438 except G1437 G3361 it abide G3306 in G1722 the G3588 vine; G288 no more G3779 G3761 can ye, G5210 except G1437 G3361 ye abide G3306 in G1722 me. G1698 [5] I G1473 am G1510 the G3588 vine, G288 ye G5210 are the G3588 branches: G2814 He that G3588 abideth G3306 in G1722 me, G1698 and I G2504 in G1722 him, G846 the same G3778 bringeth forth G5342 much G4183 fruit: G2590 for G3754 without G5565 me G1700§ ye can G1410 do G4160 nothing. G3756 G3762 [6] If G1437 a man G5100 abide G3306 not G3361 in G1722 me, G1698 he is cast G906 forth G1854 as G5613 a G3588 branch, G2814 and G2532 is withered; G3583 and G2532 men gather G4863 them, G846 and G2532 cast G906 them into G1519 the fire, G4442 and G2532 they are burned. G2545 [7] If G1437 ye abide G3306 in G1722 me, G1698 and G2532 my G3450 words G4487 abide G3306 in G1722 you, G5213 ye shall ask G154 what G3739 G1437 ye will, G2309 and G2532 it shall be done G1096 unto you. G5213 [8] Herein G1722 G5129 is G1392 my G3450 Father G3962 glorified, G1392 that G2443 ye bear G5342 much G4183 fruit; G2590 so G2532 shall ye be G1096 my G1699 disciples. G3101 [9] As G2531 the G3588 Father G3962 hath loved G25 me, G3165 so G2504 have G25 I G2504 loved G25 you: G5209 continue ye G3306 in G1722 my G1699 love. G26 [10] If G1437 ye keep G5083 my G3450 commandments, G1785 ye shall abide G3306 in G1722 my G3450 love; G26 even as G2531 I G1473 have kept G5083 my G3450 Father’s G3962 commandments, G1785 and G2532 abide G3306 in G1722 his G846 love. G26 [11] These things G5023 have I spoken G2980 unto you, G5213 that G2443 my G1699 joy G5479 might remain G3306 in G1722 you, G5213 and G2532 that your G5216 joy G5479 might be full. G4137 [12] This G3778 is G2076 my G1699 commandment, G1785 That G2443 ye love G25 one another, G240 as G2531 I have loved G25 you. G5209 [13] Greater G3173 love G26 hath G2192 no man G3762 than this, G3778 that G2443 a man G5100 lay down G5087 his G846 life G5590 for G5228 his G846 friends. G5384 [14] Ye G5210 are G2075 my G3450 friends, G5384 if G1437 ye do G4160 whatsoever G3745 I G1473 command G1781 you. G5213 [15] Henceforth G3765 I call G3004 you G5209 not G3765 servants; G1401 for G3754 the G3588 servant G1401 knoweth G1492 not G3756 what G5101 his G846 lord G2962 doeth: G4160 but G1161 I have called G2046 you G5209 friends; G5384 for G3754 all things G3956 that G3739 I have heard G191 of G3844 my G3450 Father G3962 I have made known G1107 unto you. G5213 [16] Ye G5210 have G1586 not G3756 chosen G1586 me, G3165 but G235 I G1473 have chosen G1586 you, G5209 and G2532 ordained G5087 you, G5209 that G2443 ye G5210 should go G5217 and G2532 bring forth G5342 fruit, G2590 and G2532 that your G5216 fruit G2590 should remain: G3306 that G2443 whatsoever G3739 G5100 G302 ye shall ask G154 of the G3588 Father G3962 in G1722 my G3450 name, G3686 he may give G1325 it you. G5213 [17] These things G5023 I command G1781 you, G5213 that G2443 ye love G25 one another. G240 [18] If G1487 the G3588 world G2889 hate G3404 you, G5209 ye know G1097 that G3754 it hated G3404 me G1691 before G4412 it hated you. G5216 [19] If G1487 ye were G2258 of G1537 the G3588 world, G2889 the G3588 world G2889 would G302 love G5368 his G3588 own: G2398 but G1161 because G3754 ye are G2075 not G3756 of G1537 the G3588 world, G2889 but G235 I G1473 have chosen G1586 you G5209 out of G1537 the G3588 world, G2889 therefore G1223 G5124 the G3588 world G2889 hateth G3404 you. G5209 [20] Remember G3421 the G3588 word G3056 that G3739 I G1473 said G2036 unto you, G5213 The servant G1401 is G2076 not G3756 greater G3187 than his G846 lord. G2962 If G1487 they have persecuted G1377 me, G1691 they will G1377 also G2532 persecute G1377 you; G5209 if G1487 they have kept G5083 my G3450 saying, G3056 they will keep G5083 your’s G5212 also. G2532 [21] But G235 all G3956 these things G5023 will they do G4160 unto you G5213 for G1223 my G3450 name’s G3686 sake, G1223 because G3754 they know G1492 not G3756 him that G3588 sent G3992 me. G3165 [22] If G1487 I had G2064 not G3361 come G2064 and G2532 spoken G2980 unto them, G846 they had G2192 not G3756 had G2192 sin: G266 but G1161 now G3568 they have G2192 no G3756 cloke G4392§ for G4012 their G846 sin. G266 [23] He that G3588 hateth G3404 me G1691 hateth G3404 my G3450 Father G3962 also. G2532 [24] If G1487 I had G4160 not G3361 done G4160 among G1722 them G846 the G3588 works G2041 which G3739 none G3762 other man G243 did, G4160 they had G2192 not G3756 had G2192 sin: G266 but G1161 now G3568 have they G3708 both G2532 seen G3708 and G2532 hated G3404 both G2532 me G1691 and G2532 my G3450 Father. G3962 [25] But G235 this cometh to pass, that G2443 the G3588 word G3056 might be fulfilled G4137 that G3588 is written G1125 in G1722 their G846 law, G3551 G3754 They hated G3404 me G3165 without a cause. G1432 [26] But G1161 when G3752 the G3588 Comforter G3875 is come, G2064 whom G3739 I G1473 will send G3992 unto you G5213 from G3844 the G3588 Father, G3962 even the G3588 Spirit G4151 of truth, G225 which G3739 proceedeth G1607 from G3844 the G3588 Father, G3962 he G1565 shall testify G3140 of G4012 me: G1700 [27] and G1161 ye G5210 also G2532 shall bear witness, G3140 because G3754 ye have been G2075 with G3326 me G1700 from G575 the beginning.
