15 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit, he takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, he prunes it so that it may bear more fruit.
3 “You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you;
4 “Abide in me, and I in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in me.
5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, this one bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
6 “If anyone does not abide in me, he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 “If you abide in me and my words abide in you, {ask}[fn] whatever you wish, and it will be done [for you].[fn]
8 “In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and [[so shall you]][fn] become my disciples.
9 “Just as the Father has loved me, so I have loved you; abide in my love.
10 “If you keep my commandments, you will {abide}[fn] in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.
11 “These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may {be}[fn] in you, and that your joy may be full.
12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
13 “No one has greater love than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
14 “You are my friends if you do {what}[fn] I command you. 15 No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.
16 “You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit, fruit that will last, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
17 “These things I command you, that you love one another. 18 If the world hates you, know that it has hated me first before [you].[fn]
19 “If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but 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 master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. 21 But all these things they will do to you on account of my name, because they do not know the one who sent me.
22 “If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 Whoever hates me hates my Father also.
24 “If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. 25 But this is to fulfill the word that is written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’[fn]
26 “When the Advocate[fn] comes, which I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit[fn] of truth that proceeds from the Father, that one will bear witness about me; 27 and you also will bear witness, because you have been with me from the beginning.”

15:26, Advocate: The Greek word paraclete is often translated as Comforter, Helper, or Counselor. BDAG states “In the few places where the word is found in pre-Christian and extra-Christian literature as well it has for the most part a more general sense: one who appears in another's behalf, mediator, intercessor, helper.” (BDAG, παράκλητος)
15:26, Spirit: The Greek word is given the following definitions by BDAG: (1) air in movement, blowing, breathing, (2) that which animates or gives life to the body, breath , (life-)spirit, (3) a part of human personality, spirit, (4) an independent noncorporeal being, in contrast to a being that can be perceived by the physical senses, spirit, or (5) God's being as controlling influence, with focus on association with humans, Spirit, spirit ... (c) Because of its heavenly origin and nature this Spirit is called (the) Holy Spirit. (BDAG, πνεῦμα)
