1 [“] I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. VP

2 Every branch in Me not bearing fruit, He takes it away; and every one bearing fruit, He prunes it clean so that it may bear more fruit. VP

3 Already you⁺ are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you⁺. VP

4 Remain in Me, and I in you⁺. Just as the branch is not able to bear fruit of itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither you⁺, unless you⁺ remain in Me. VP

5 I am the vine; you⁺ [are] the branches. The [one] remaining in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, because apart from Me you⁺ are able to do nothing. VP

6 If anyone does not remain in Me, he is thrown out like the branch and is dried up; and they gather them and cast [them] into the fire, and they are burned. VP

7 If you⁺ remain in Me and My words remain in you⁺, you⁺ shall ask what you⁺ wish, and to you⁺ it will come to pass. VP

8 In this My Father is glorified, that you⁺ may bear much fruit, and you⁺ shall be My disciples. VP

9 Just as the Father has loved Me, I also have loved you⁺. Remain in My love. VP

10 If you⁺ keep My commandments, you⁺ will remain in My love, as I have kept the commandments of My Father, and I remain in His love. VP

11 These things I have spoken to you⁺ so that My joy may be in you⁺ and your⁺ joy may be full. VP

12 This is My commandment, that you⁺ should love one another just as I have loved you⁺. VP

13 Greater love has no one than this, that one should lay down his life for his friends. VP

14 You⁺ are My friends if you⁺ do what I command you⁺. VP

15 No longer do I call you⁺ servants, because the servant does not know what his master does. But I have called you⁺ friends, because all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you⁺. VP

16 You⁺ did not choose Me, but I chose you⁺, and I appointed you⁺ so that you⁺ should go and bear fruit, and [that] your⁺ fruit should remain, so that whatever you⁺ may ask the Father in My name, He may give you⁺. VP

17 These things I command you⁺, that you⁺ love one another. VP

18 If the world hates you⁺, you⁺ know that it has hated Me before you⁺. VP

19 If you⁺ were of the world, the world would love [you] [as] its own; but because you⁺ are not of the world, but I chose you⁺ out of the world—because of this, the world hates you⁺. VP

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. VP

21 But they will do all these things to you⁺ because of My name, because they do not know the [One] having sent Me. VP

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. VP

23 The [one] hating Me hates My Father also. VP

24 If I had not done among them the works that no other has done, they would not have had sin; but now they have both seen and hated both Me and My Father. VP

25 But [this is] so that the word having been written in their Law may be fulfilled: ‘They hated Me without cause.’ VP

26 When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you⁺ from the Father, the Spirit of truth who goes forth from the Father, He will testify about Me. VP

27 And you⁺ also testify, because you⁺ are with Me from [the] beginning.[] VP
