John 15 (ASV Interlinear Bible)

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

2Every branch in me that beareth not fruit, he taketh it away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he cleanseth it, that it may bear more fruit.

3Already ye are clean because of the word which I have spoken unto you.

4Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; so neither can ye, except ye abide in me.

5I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit: for apart from me ye can do nothing.

6If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

7If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatsoever ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

9Even as the Father hath loved me, I also have loved you: abide ye in my love.

10If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.

11These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full.

12This is my commandment, that ye love one another, even as I have loved you.

13Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

14Ye are my friends, if ye do the things which I command you.

16Ye did not choose me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that ye should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should abide: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

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

21But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me.

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

23He that hateth me hateth my Father also.

24If I had not done among them the works which none other did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
