Christian Standard Bible

1"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.

2He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.

2Every branch in me that does not produce fruit he removes, and he prunes every branch that produces fruit so that it will produce more fruit.

3You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.

4Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.

4Remain in me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, neither can you unless you remain in me.

5"I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.

5I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without me.

6If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.

6If anyone does not remain in me, he is thrown aside like a branch and he withers. They gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned.

7If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

7If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you want and it will be done for you.

8This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.

8My Father is glorified by this: that you produce much fruit and prove to be my disciples.

9"As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.

9"As the Father has loved me, I have also loved you. Remain in my love.

10If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commands and remain in his love.

10If you keep my commands you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commands and remain in his love.

11I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.

11"I have told you these things so that my joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.

12My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.

12"This is my command: Love one another as I have loved you.

13Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends.

13No one has greater love than this: to lay down his life for his friends.

14You are my friends if you do what I command.

14You are my friends if you do what I command you.

15I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.

15I do not call you servants anymore, because a servant doesn't know what his master is doing. I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything I have heard from my Father.

16You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit--fruit that will last--and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.

16You did not choose me, but I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce fruit and that your fruit should remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give you.

17This is my command: Love each other.

17"This is what I command you: Love one another.

18"If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.

18"If the world hates you, understand that it hated me before it hated you.

19If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.

19If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own. However, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of it, the world hates you.

20Remember what I told you: 'A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.

20Remember the word I spoke 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 also keep yours.

21They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me.

21But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they don't know the one who sent me.

22If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.

22If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now they have no excuse for their sin.

23Whoever hates me hates my Father as well.

23The one who hates me also hates my Father.

24If I had not done among them the works no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin. As it is, they have seen, and yet they have hated both me and my Father.

24If I had not done the works among them that no one else has done, they would not have sin. Now they have seen and hated both me and my Father.

25But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: 'They hated me without reason.'

25But this happened so that the statement written in their law might be fulfilled: They hated me for no reason.

26"When the Advocate 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.

26"When the Counselor comes, the one I will send to you from the Father--the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father--he will testify about me.

27And you also must testify, for you have been with me from the beginning.

27You also will testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.
