John 15

1I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.

εγω ειμι η αμπελος η αληθινη, και ο πατηρ μου ο γεωργος εστιν.

2Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

παν κλημα εν εμοι μη φερον καρπον, αιρει αυτο, και παν το καρπον φερον, καθαιρει αυτο, ινα πλειονα καρπον φερη.

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

ηδη υμεις καθαροι εστε δια τον λογον ον λελαληκα υμιν.

4Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.

μεινατε εν εμοι, καγω εν υμιν. καθως το κλημα ου δυναται καρπον φερειν αφ εαυτου, εαν μη μεινη εν τη αμπελω, ουτως ουδε υμεις, εαν μη εν εμοι μεινητε.

5'I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

εγω ειμι η αμπελος, υμεις τα κληματα. ο μενων εν εμοι καγω εν αυτω, ουτος φερει καρπον πολυν, οτι χωρις εμου ου δυνασθε ποιειν ουδεν.

6If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.

εαν μη τις μεινη εν εμοι, εβληθη εξω ως το κλημα και εξηρανθη, και συναγουσιν αυτα και εις το πυρ βαλλουσιν, και καιεται.

7If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.

εαν μεινητε εν εμοι και τα ρηματα μου εν υμιν μεινη, ο εαν θελητε αιτησασθε, και γενησεται υμιν.

8By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.

εν τουτω εδοξασθη ο πατηρ μου, ινα καρπον πολυν φερητε, και γενησεσθε εμοι μαθηται.

9'As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love.

καθως ηγαπησεν με ο πατηρ, καγω ηγαπησα υμας· μεινατε εν τη αγαπη τη εμη.

10If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.

εαν τας εντολας μου τηρησητε, μενειτε εν τη αγαπη μου, καθως εγω τας εντολας του πατρος μου τετηρηκα και μενω αυτου εν τη αγαπη.

11'These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.

ταυτα λελαληκα υμιν ινα η χαρα η εμη εν υμιν μεινη και η χαρα υμων πληρωθη.

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

αυτη εστιν η εντολη η εμη, ινα αγαπατε αλληλους καθως ηγαπησα υμας.

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

μειζονα ταυτης αγαπην ουδεις εχει, ινα τις την ψυχην αυτου θη υπερ των φιλων αυτου.

14You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.

υμεις φιλοι μου εστε, εαν ποιητε οσα εγω εντελλομαι υμιν.

15No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.

ουκετι υμας λεγω δουλους, οτι ο δουλος ουκ οιδεν τι ποιει αυτου ο κυριος· υμας δε ειρηκα φιλους, οτι παντα α ηκουσα παρα του πατρος μου εγνωρισα υμιν.

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

ουχ υμεις με εξελεξασθε, αλλ εγω εξελεξαμην υμας, και εθηκα υμας ινα υμεις υπαγητε και καρπον φερητε, και ο καρπος υμων μενη, ινα ο τι αν αιτησητε τον πατερα εν τω ονοματι μου, δω υμιν.

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

ταυτα εντελλομαι υμιν, ινα αγαπατε αλληλους.

18'If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you.

ει ο κοσμος υμας μισει, γινωσκετε οτι εμε πρωτον υμων μεμισηκεν.

19If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

ει εκ του κοσμου ητε, ο κοσμος αν το ιδιον εφιλει· οτι δε εκ του κοσμου ουκ εστε, αλλ εγω εξελεξαμην υμας εκ του κοσμου, δια τουτο μισει υμας ο κοσμος.

20Remember 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.

μνημονευετε του λογου ου εγω ειπον υμιν· ουκ εστιν δουλος μειζων του κυριου αυτου. ει εμε εδιωξαν, και υμας διωξουσιν· ει τον λογον μου ετηρησαν, και τον υμετερον τηρησουσιν.

21But all these things they will do to you for My name's sake, because they do not know Him who sent Me.

αλλα ταυτα παντα ποιησουσιν υμιν δια το ονομα μου, οτι ουκ οιδασιν τον πεμψαντα με.

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

ει μη ηλθον και ελαλησα αυτοις, αμαρτιαν ουκ ειχον· νυν δε προφασιν ουκ εχουσιν περι της αμαρτιας αυτων.

23He who hates Me hates My Father also.

ο εμε μισων και τον πατερα μου μισει.

24If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would have no sin; but now they have seen and also hated both Me and My Father.

ει τα εργα μη εποιησα εν αυτοις α ουδεις αλλος πεποιηκεν, αμαρτιαν ουκ ειχον· νυν δε και εωρακασιν και μεμισηκασιν και εμε και τον πατερα μου.

25But this happened that the word might be fulfilled which is written in their law, 'They hated Me without cause.'

αλλ ινα πληρωθη ο λογος ο γεγραμμενος εν τω νομω αυτων, οτι εμισησαν με δωρεαν.

26'But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me.

οταν δε ελθη ο παρακλητος ον εγω πεμψω υμιν παρα του πατρος, το πνευμα της αληθειας ο παρα του πατρος εκπορευεται, εκεινος μαρτυρησει περι εμου·

27And you also will bear witness, because you have been with Me from the beginning.

και υμεις δε μαρτυρειτε, οτι απ αρχης μετ εμου εστε.
