1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
2 {As to} every branch in me not bearing fruit, he takes it away; and {as to} every one bearing fruit, he purges it that it may bring forth more fruit.
3 Ye are already clean by reason of the word which I have spoken to you.
4 Abide in me and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abide in the vine, thus neither {can} ye unless ye abide in me.
5 I am the vine, ye {are} the branches. He that abides in me and I in him, *he* bears much fruit; for without me ye can do nothing.
6 Unless any one abide in me he is cast out as the branch, and is dried up; and they gather them and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will and it shall come to pass to you.
8 In this is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit, and ye shall become disciples of mine.
9 As the Father has loved me, I also have loved you: abide in my love.
10 If ye shall keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love, as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.
11 I have spoken these things to you that my joy may be in you, and your joy be full.
12 This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you.
13 No one has greater love than this, that one should lay down his life for his friends.
14 Ye are my friends if ye practise whatever I command you.
15 I call you no longer bondmen, for the bondman does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things which I have heard of my Father I have made known to you.
16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and have set you that ye should go and {that} ye should bear fruit, and {that} your fruit should abide, that whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name he may give you.
17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.
18 If the world hate you, know that it has hated me before you.
19 If ye were of the world, the world would love its own; but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on account of this the world hates you.
20 Remember the word which I said unto you, The bondman is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my word, they will keep also yours.
21 But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they have not known him that sent me.
22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.
23 He that hates me hates also my Father.
24 If I had not done among them the works which no other one has done, they had not had sin; but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.
25 But that the word written in their law might be fulfilled, They hated me without a cause.
26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who goes forth from with the Father, *he* shall bear witness concerning me;
27 and ye too bear witness, because ye are with me from {the} beginning.
1 "我是真葡萄树， 我父是培植的人。
2 所有属我而不结果子的枝子， 他就剪去； 所有结果子的， 他就修剪干净， 让它结更多的果子。
3 现在你们因着我对你们所讲的道， 已经干净了。
4 你们要住在我里面， 我也就住在你们里面。枝子若不连在葡萄树上， 自己就不能结果子； 你们若不住在我里面， 也是这样。
5 我是葡萄树， 你们是枝子。住在我里面的， 我也住在他里面， 他就结出很多果子； 因为离开了我， 你们就不能作什么。
6 人若不住在我里面， 就像枝子丢在外面枯干了， 人把它们拾起来， 丢在火里烧掉了。
7 你们若住在我里面， 我的话也留在你们里面； 无论你们想要什么， 祈求， 就给你们成就。
8 这样， 你们结出很多果子， 我父就因此得荣耀， 你们也就是我的门徒了。
9 父怎样爱我， 我也怎样爱你们； 你们要住在我的爱里。
10 如果你们遵守我的命令， 就必定住在我的爱里， 正像我遵守了我父的命令， 住在他的爱里一样。
11 "我把这些事告诉了你们， 好让我的喜乐存在你们心里， 并且使你们的喜乐满溢。
12 你们要彼此相爱， 像我爱你们一样， 这就是我的命令。
13 人为朋友舍命， 人间的爱没有比这个更大的了。
14 你们若行我所吩咐你们的， 就是我的朋友了。
15 我不再称你们为仆人， 因为仆人不知道主人所作的事； 我已经称你们为朋友了， 因为我从我父那里听见的一切， 都已经告诉你们了。
16 不是你们拣选了我， 而是我拣选了你们， 并且分派你们去结果子， 就是结常存的果子， 使你们奉我的名， 无论向父求什么， 他必定赐给你们。
17 我把这些事吩咐你们， 是要你们彼此相爱。
18 "如果世人恨你们， 你们要知道他们在恨你们以先， 已经恨我了。
19 你们若属于这世界， 世人必定爱属自己的； 但因为你们不属于世界， 而是我从世界中拣选了你们， 所以世人就恨你们。
20 你们要记住我对你们说过的话： ‘仆人不能大过主人。’他们若迫害我， 也必定迫害你们； 他们若遵守我的话， 也必定遵守你们的话。
21 但他们因着我的名， 要向你们行这一切， 因为他们不认识那差我来的。
22 如果我没有来， 也没有对他们讲过什么， 他们就没有罪； 但现在他们的罪是无可推诿的了。
23 恨我的， 也恨我的父。
24 如果我没有在他们中间作过别人没有作过的事， 他们就没有罪； 但现在我和我的父， 他们都看见了， 也都恨恶。
25 这就应验了他们律法上所写的话： ‘他们无故地恨我。’
26 "我从父那里要差来给你们的保惠师， 就是从父那里出来的真理的灵， 他来到的时候， 要为我作见证。
27 你们也要作见证， 因为从开始你们就是跟我在一起的。"
