John 15:1

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

Latin · Clementine VulgateEgo sum vitis vera, et Pater meus agricola est.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881εγω ειμι η αμπελος η αληθινη και ο πατηρ μου ο γεωργος εστιν
John 15:2

Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

Plain English · paraphraseEvery branch in me that does not bear fruit, he takes away. And every branch that does bear fruit, he cleans it, so that it will produce more fruit.

Latin · Clementine VulgateOmnem palmitem in me non ferentem fructum, tollet eum, et omnem qui fert fructum, purgabit eum, ut fructum plus afferat.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881παν κλημα εν εμοι μη φερον καρπον αιρει αυτο και παν το καρπον φερον καθαιρει αυτο ινα καρπον πλειονα φερη

John 15:4

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

Plain English · paraphraseStay connected to me, and I will stay connected to you. A branch can't produce fruit by itself unless it stays connected to the vine. You can't either unless you stay connected to me.

Latin · Clementine VulgateManete in me, et ego in vobis. Sicut palmes non potest fere fructum a semetipso, nisi manserit in vite, sic nec vos, nisi in me manseritis.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881μεινατε εν εμοι καγω εν υμιν καθως το κλημα ου δυναται καρπον φερειν αφ εαυτου εαν μη μενη εν τη αμπελω ουτως ουδε υμεις εαν μη εν εμοι μενητε
John 15:5

I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

Plain English · paraphraseI am the vine. You are the branches. Whoever remains in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. Without me, you can do nothing.

Latin · Clementine VulgateEgo sum vitis, vos palmites: qui manet in me, et ego in eo, hic fert fructum multum, quia sine me nihil potestis facere.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881εγω ειμι η αμπελος υμεις τα κληματα ο μενων εν εμοι καγω εν αυτω ουτος φερει καρπον πολυν οτι χωρις εμου ου δυνασθε ποιειν ουδεν
John 15:6

If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

Plain English · paraphraseIf a man does not remain in me, he is thrown out like a branch and withers. People gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.

Latin · Clementine VulgateSi quis in me non manserit, mittetur foras sicut palmes, et arescet, et colligent eum, et in ignem mittent, et ardet.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881εαν μη τις μενη εν εμοι εβληθη εξω ως το κλημα και εξηρανθη και συναγουσιν αυτα και εις το πυρ βαλλουσιν και καιεται
John 15:7

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

Plain English · paraphraseIf you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you can ask for anything you want, and it will be given to you.

Latin · Clementine VulgateSi manseritis in me, et verba mea in vobis manserint, quodcumque volueritis petetis, et fiet vobis.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881εαν μεινητε εν εμοι και τα ρηματα μου εν υμιν μεινη ο εαν θελητε αιτησασθε και γενησεται υμιν

Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881εν τουτω εδοξασθη ο πατηρ μου ινα καρπον πολυν φερητε και γενησθε εμοι μαθηται
John 15:9

As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

Plain English · paraphraseI have loved you as the Father has loved me. Stay in my love.

Latin · Clementine VulgateSicut dilexit me Pater, et ego dilexi vos. Manete in dilectione mea.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881καθως ηγαπησεν με ο πατηρ καγω υμας ηγαπησα μεινατε εν τη αγαπη τη εμη
John 15:10

If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.

Plain English · paraphraseIf you keep my commands, you will live in my love. I have kept my Father’s commands and live in his love.

Latin · Clementine VulgateSi præcepta mea servaveritis, manebitis in dilectione mea, sicut et ego Patris mei præcepta servavi, et maneo in ejus dilectione.

John 15:12

This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

Plain English · paraphraseThis is my command: Love each other, just as I have loved you.

Latin · Clementine VulgateHoc est præceptum meum, ut diligatis invicem, sicut dilexi vos.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881αυτη εστιν η εντολη η εμη ινα αγαπατε αλληλους καθως ηγαπησα υμας
John 15:13

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

Plain English · paraphraseNo love is greater than when someone gives up their life for their friends.

Latin · Clementine VulgateMajorem hac dilectionem nemo habet, ut animam suam ponat qui pro amicis suis.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881μειζονα ταυτης αγαπην ουδεις εχει ινα τις την ψυχην αυτου θη υπερ των φιλων αυτου

John 15:15

Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

Plain English · paraphraseFrom now on I no longer call you servants, because the servant does not know what the master is doing. I have called you friends, because I have told you everything I heard from my Father.

Latin · Clementine VulgateJam non dicam vos servos: quia servus nescit quid faciat dominus ejus. Vos autem dixi amicos: quia omnia quæcumque audivi a Patre meo, nota feci vobis.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881ουκετι λεγω υμας 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
John 15:16

Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

Plain English · paraphraseYou have not chosen me, but I have chosen you and set you apart. I have sent you to go and produce fruit, and your fruit will remain. Whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give you.

Latin · Clementine VulgateNon vos me elegistis, sed ego elegi vos, et posui vos ut eatis, et fructum afferatis, et fructus vester maneat: ut quodcumque petieritis Patrem in nomine meo, det vobis.
Greek · Westcott–Hort 1881ουχ 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

If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
