The Webster Bible
John, Chapter 15

   1: I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
   2: Every branch in me that beareth not fruit, he taketh away; and every [branch] that beareth fruit, he cleaneth it, that it my bring forth more fruit.
   3: Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken to you.
   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.
   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.
   6: If a man abideth 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.
   7: If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye may ask what ye will, and it shall be done to you.
   8: In this is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.
   9: As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
   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.
   11: These things have I spoken to you, that my joy may remain in you, and [that] your joy may be full.
   12: This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
   13: Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
   14: Ye are my friends, if ye do whatever I command you.
   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 from my Father, I have made known to you.
   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 whatever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
   17: These things I command you, that ye love one another.
   18: If the world hateth you, ye know that it hated me before [it hated] 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, therefore the world hateth you.
   20: Remember the word that I said to you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
   21: But all these things will they do to you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.
   22: If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.
   23: He that hateth me, hateth my Father also.
   24: If I had not done among them the works which no other man hath done, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen, and hated both me and my Father.
   25: But [this cometh to pass], that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
   26: But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send to you from the Father, [even] the Spirit of truth, who proceedeth from the Father, he will testify concerning me.
   27: And ye also shall bear testimony, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
