ULT YHN Chapter 15

15 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer. 2 Every branch in me not bearing fruit, he takes it away; and every one that bears fruit, he prunes it so that it might bear more fruit. 3 You are already clean through the word that I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, and I in you. Just as a branch is not able to bear fruit from 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. The one remaining in me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for without me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not remain in me, he is thrown outside like a branch and is dried up, and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned up. 7 If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you. 8 My Father was glorified in this, that you would bear much fruit and you would be my disciples. 9 Just as the Father has loved me, I have also loved you. Remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept the commandments of the Father and remain in his love. 11 I have spoken these things to you so that my joy might be in you and your joy might be complete. 12 This is my commandment, that you would love one another just as I have loved you. 13 No one has greater love than this—that he would lay down his life for his friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what 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 the things I 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 would go and would bear fruit, and your fruit would remain, so that whatever you would ask of the Father in my name, he would give it to you. 17 These things I command you so that you would love one another. 18 If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before you. 19 If you were from the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not from the world, but I chose you from the world, on account of this the world hates you. 20 Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A slave is not greater than his master.’ 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 because of my name, because they do not know the one having 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 The one hating me also hates my Father. 24 If I had not done the works that no one else did among them, they would have no sin, but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father. 25 But this is so that the word that is written in their law might be fulfilled, ‘They hated me without a cause.’ 26 When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of Truth who goes out from the Father—he will testify about me. 27 But you also testify because you are with me from the beginning.”
