Dual Panel1“I <1473> am <1510> the true <228> vine <288> and <2532> my <3450> Father <3962> is <1510> the gardener <1092>.
2He takes away <142> every <3956> branch <2814> that does <5342> not <3361> bear <5342> fruit <2590> in <1722> me <1698>. He prunes <2508> every <3956> branch that bears <5342> fruit <2590> so that <2443> it will bear <5342> more <4119> fruit <2590>.
3You <5210> are <1510> clean <2513> already <2235> because of <1223> the word <3056> that <3739> I have spoken <2980> to you <5213>.
4Remain <3306> in <1722> me <1698>, and I <2504> will remain in <1722> you <5213>. Just <2531> as the branch <2814> cannot <3756> <1410> bear <5342> fruit <2590> by <575> itself <1438>, unless <1437> <3361> it remains <3306> in <1722> the vine <288>, so <3779> neither <3761> can <3306> you <5210> unless <1437> <3361> you remain <3306> in <1722> me <1698>.
5“I <1473> am <1510> the vine <288>; you <5210> are the branches <2814>. The one who remains <3306> in <1722> me <1698>– and I <2504> in <1722> him <846>– bears <5342> much <4183> fruit <2590>, because <3754> apart from <5565> me <1700> you can <1410> accomplish <4160> nothing <3756> <3762>.
6If <1437> anyone <5100> does <3306> not <3361> remain <3306> in <1722> me <1698>, he is thrown <906> out <1854> like <5613> a branch <2814>, and <2532> dries up <3583>; and <2532> such branches <846> are gathered up <4863> and <2532> thrown <906> into <1519> the fire <4442>, and <2532> are burned up <2545>.
7If <1437> you remain <3306> in <1722> me <1698> and <2532> my <3450> words <4487> remain <3306> in <1722> you <5213>, ask <154> whatever <1437> you want <2309>, and <2532> it will be done <1096> for you <5213>.
8My <3450> Father <3962> is honored <1392> by <1722> this <5129>, that <2443> you bear <5342> much <4183> fruit <2590> and <2532> show that you are <1096> my <1698> disciples <3101>.
9“Just as <2531> the Father <3962> has loved <25> me <3165>, I <2504> have <25> also <2504> loved <25> you <5209>; remain <3306> in <1722> my <1699> love <26>.
10If <1437> you obey <5083> my <3450> commandments <1785>, you will remain <3306> in <1722> my <3450> love <26>, just <2531> as I <1473> have obeyed <5083> my Father’s <3962> commandments <1785> and <2532> remain <3306> in <1722> his <846> love <26>.
11I have told <2980> you <5213> these things <5023> so that <2443> my <1699> joy <5479> may be <1510> in <1722> you <5213>, and <2532> your <5216> joy <5479> may be complete <4137>.
12My <1699> commandment <1785> is <1510> this <3778>– to <2443> love <25> one another <240> just as <2531> I have loved <25> you <5209>.
13No one <3762> has <2192> greater <3173> love <26> than <3173> this <3778>– that <2443> one <5100> lays down <5087> his <846> life <5590> for <5228> his <846> friends <5384>.
14You <5210> are <1510> my <3450> friends <5384> if <1437> you do <4160> what <3739> I <1473> command <1781> you <5213>.
15I <3004> no longer <3765> call <3004> you <5209> slaves <1401>, because <3754> the slave <1401> does <1492> not <3756> understand <1492> what <5101> his <846> master <2962> is doing <4160>. But <1161> I have called <2046> you <5209> friends <5384>, because <3754> I have revealed <1107> to you <5213> everything <3956> I heard <191> from <3844> my <3450> Father <3962>.
16You <5210> did <1586> not <3756> choose <1586> me <3165>, but <235> I <1473> chose <1586> you <5209> and <2532> appointed <5087> you <5209> to <2443> go <5217> and <2532> bear <5342> fruit <2590>, fruit <2590> that remains <3306>, so that <2443> whatever <302> you ask <154> the Father <3962> in <1722> my <3450> name <3686> he will give <1325> you <5213>.
17This <5023> I command <1781> you <5213>– to <2443> love <25> one another <240>.
18“If <1487> the world <2889> hates <3404> you <5209>, be aware <1097> that <3754> it hated <3404> me <1691> first <4412>.
19If <1487> you belonged <1510> to <1537> the world <2889>, the world <2889> would love <5368> you as its own <2398>. However <1161>, because <3754> you do <1510> not <3756> belong <1510> to <1537> the world <2889>, but <235> I <1473> chose <1586> you <5209> out <1537> of the world <2889>, for <1223> this <5124> reason the world <2889> hates <3404> you <5209>.
20Remember <3421> what <3739> I <1473> told <2036> you <5213>, ‘A slave <1401> is not <3756> greater than <3187> his <846> master <2962>.’ If <1487> they persecuted <1377> me <1691>, they will <1377> also <2532> persecute <1377> you <5209>. If <1487> they obeyed <5083> my <3450> word <3056>, they will obey <5083> yours <5212> too <2532>.
21But <235> they will do <4160> all <3956> these things <5023> to <1519> you <5209> on account of <1223> my <3450> name <3686>, because <3754> they do <1492> not <3756> know <1492> the one who sent <3992> me <3165>.
22If <1487> I had <2064> not <3361> come <2064> and <2532> spoken <2980> to them <846>, they would <2192> not <3756> be guilty <2192> of sin <266>. But <1161> they <2192> no longer <3756> have <2192> any excuse <4392> for <4012> their <846> sin <266>.
23The one who hates <3404> me <1691> hates <3404> my <3450> Father <3962> too <2532>.
24If <1487> I had <4160> not <3361> performed <4160> among <1722> them <846> the miraculous deeds <2041> that no one <3762> else <243> did <4160>, they would <2192> not <3756> be guilty <2192> of sin <266>. But <2532> now <3568> they have seen <3708> the deeds and <2532> have hated <3404> both <2532> me <1691> and <2532> my <3450> Father <3962>.
25Now this happened to <2443> fulfill <4137> the word <3056> that is written <1125> in <1722> their <846> law <3551>, ‘They hated <3404> me <3165> without reason <1432>.’
26When <3752> the Advocate <3875> comes <2064>, whom <3739> I <1473> will send <3992> you <5213> from <3844> the Father <3962>– the Spirit <4151> of truth <225> who <3739> goes out <1607> from <3844> the Father <3962>– he will testify <3140> about <4012> me <1700>,
27and <2532> you <5210> also <1161> will testify <3140>, because <3754> you have been <1510> with <3326> me <1700> from <575> the beginning <746>.
