15 ΚΑΤΑ ΙΩΑΝΝΗΝ John Reference
1Ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἀμπελος ἡ ἀληθινή, καὶ ὁ πατήρ μου ὁ γεωργός ἐστιν. "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Jesus the True Vine Jn.15.1-17
2πᾶν κλῆμα ἐν ἐμοὶ μὴ φέρον καρπόν, αἰρει αὐτό, καὶ πᾶν τὸ καρπὸν φέρον καθαίρει αὐτὸ ἵνα καρπὸν πλείονα φέρῃ. Every branch of mine that bears no fruit, he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.  
3ἠδη ὑμεῖς καθαροί ἐστε διὰ τὸν λόγον ὃν λελάληκα ὑμῖν· You are already made clean by the word which I have spoken to you. 
4μείνατε ἐν ἐμοί, κἀγὼ ἐν ὑμῖν. καθὼς τὸ κλῆμα οὐ δύναται καρπὸν φέρειν ἀφ' ἑαυτοῦ ἐὰν μὴ μένῃ ἐν τῇ ἀμπέλῳ, οὑτως οὐδὲ ὑμεῖς ἐὰν μὴ ἐν ἐμοὶ μένητε. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.  
5ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἀμπελος, ὑμεῖς τὰ κλήματα. ὁ μένων ἐν ἐμοὶ κἀγὼ ἐν αὐτῷ οὗτος φέρει καρπὸν πολύν, ὅτι χωρὶς ἐμοῦ οὐ δύνασθε ποιεῖν οὐδέν. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.  
6ἐὰν μή τις μένῃ ἐν ἐμοί, ἐβλήθη ἐξω ὡς τὸ κλῆμα καὶ ἐξηράνθη, καὶ συνάγουσιν αὐτὰ καὶ εἰς τὸ πῦρ βάλλουσιν καὶ καίεται. If a man does not abide in me, he is cast forth as a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire and burned.  
7ἐὰν μείνητε ἐν ἐμοὶ καὶ τὰ ῥήματά μου ἐν ὑμῖν μείνῃ, ὃ ἐὰν θέλητε αἰτήσασθε καὶ γενήσεται ὑμῖν. If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.  
8ἐν τούτῳ ἐδοξάσθη ὁ πατήρ μου, ἵνα καρπὸν πολὺν φέρητε καὶ γένησθε ἐμοὶ μαθηταί. By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be my disciples.  
9καθὼς ἠγάπησέν με ὁ πατήρ, κἀγὼ ὑμᾶς ἠγάπησα· μείνατε ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ τῇ ἐμῇ. As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love.  
10ἐὰν τὰς ἐντολάς μου τηρήσητε, μενεῖτε ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ μου, καθὼς ἐγὼ τὰς ἐντολὰς τοῦ πατρός μου τετήρηκα καὶ μένω αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.  
11Ταῦτα λελάληκα ὑμῖν ἵνα ἡ χαρὰ ἡ ἐμὴ ἐν ὑμῖν ᾖ καὶ ἡ χαρὰ ὑμῶν πληρωθῇ. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full. 
12αὑτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἐντολὴ ἡ ἐμή, ἵνα ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους καθὼς ἠγάπησα ὑμᾶς· "This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.  
13μείζονα ταύτης ἀγάπην οὐδεὶς ἐχει, ἵνα τις τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ θῇ ὑπὲρ τῶν φίλων αὐτοῦ. Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.  
14ὑμεῖς φίλοι μού ἐστε ἐὰν ποιῆτε ἂ ἐγὼ ἐντέλλομαι ὑμῖν. You are my friends if you do what I command you. 
15οὐκέτι λέγω ὑμᾶς δούλους, ὅτι ὁ δοῦλος οὐκ οἶδεν τί ποιεῖ αὐτοῦ ὁ κύριος· ὑμᾶς δὲ εἰρηκα φίλους, ὅτι πάντα ἂ ἠκουσα παρὰ τοῦ πατρός μου ἐγνώρισα ὑμῖν. 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.  
16οὐχ ὑμεῖς με ἐξελέξασθε, ἀλλ' ἐγὼ ἐξελεξάμην ὑμᾶς καὶ ἐθηκα ὑμᾶς ἵνα ὑμεῖς ὑπάγητε καὶ καρπὸν φέρητε καὶ ὁ καρπὸς ὑμῶν μένῃ, ἵνα ὁ τι ἂν αἰτήσητε τὸν πατέρα ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί μου δῷ ὑμῖν. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.  
17ταῦτα ἐντέλλομαι ὑμῖν, ἵνα ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους. This I command you, to love one another.  
18Εἰ ὁ κόσμος ὑμᾶς μισεῖ, γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐμὲ πρῶτον ὑμῶν μεμίσηκεν. "If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. The World's Hatred Jn.15.18-16.4

19εἰ ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου ἦτε, ὁ κόσμος ἂν τὸ ἰδιον ἐφίλει· ὅτι δὲ ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου οὐκ ἐστέ, ἀλλ' ἐγὼ ἐξελεξάμην ὑμᾶς ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου, διὰ τοῦτο μισεῖ ὑμᾶς ὁ κόσμος. 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.  
20μνημονεύετε τοῦ λόγου οὗ ἐγὼ εἶπον ὑμῖν, Οὐκ ἐστιν δοῦλος μείζων τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ. εἰ ἐμὲ ἐδίωξαν, καὶ ὑμᾶς διώξουσιν· εἰ τὸν λόγον μου ἐτήρησαν, καὶ τὸν ὑμέτερον τη ρήσουσιν. Remember the word that I said to you, 'A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also.  
21ἀλλὰ ταῦτα πάντα ποιήσουσιν εἰς ὑμᾶς διὰ τὸ ὀνομά μου, ὅτι οὐκ οἰδασιν τὸν πέμψαντά με. But all this they will do to you on my account, because they do not know him who sent me. 
22εἰ μὴ ἦλθον καὶ ἐλάλησα αὐτοῖς, ἀμαρτίαν οὐκ εἰχοσαν· νῦν δὲ πρόφασιν οὐκ ἐχουσιν περὶ τῆς ἀμαρτίας αὐτῶν. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. 
23ὁ ἐμὲ μισῶν καὶ τὸν πατέρα μου μισεῖ. He who hates me hates my Father also. 
24εἰ τὰ ἐργα μὴ ἐποίησα ἐν αὐτοῖς ἂ οὐδεὶς ἀλλος ἐποίησεν, ἀμαρτίαν οὐκ εἰχοσαν· νῦν δὲ καὶ ἑωράκασιν καὶ μεμισήκασιν καὶ ἐμὲ καὶ τὸν πατέρα μου. If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. 
25ἀλλ' ἵνα πληρωθῇ ὁ λόγος ὁ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ αὐτῶν γεγραμμένος ὅτι Ἐμίσησάν με δωρεάν. It is to fulfil the word that is written in their law, 'They hated me without a cause.'- They hated me without a cause Jn.15.25 | Ps.35.19 | Ps.69.4

26Ὁταν ἐλθῃ ὁ παράκλητος ὃν ἐγὼ πέμψω ὑμῖν παρὰ τοῦ πατρός, τὸ Πνεῦμα τῆς ἀληθείας ὃ παρὰ τοῦ πατρὸς ἐκπορεύεται, ἐκεῖνος μαρτυρήσει περὶ ἐμοῦ· But when the Counselor comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness to me;  
27καὶ ὑμεῖς δὲ μαρτυρεῖτε, ὅτι ἀπ' ἀρχῆς μετ' ἐμοῦ ἐστε. and you also are witnesses, because you have been with me from the beginning.
