John 15:15-17

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹⁵ I do not call you slaves anymore, because a slave doesn’t know what his master^[a](A) is doing. I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything I have heard from My Father. ¹⁶ You did not choose Me, but I chose you.^(B) I appointed you that you should go out and produce fruit and that your fruit should remain, so that whatever you ask^(C) the Father in My name,^(D) He will give you.^{(E) 17} This is what I command you: Love one another.
