John 15:18-21
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Persecutions Predicted
18 “If the world hates(A) you, understand that it hated Me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own. However, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen(B) you out of it, the world hates you. 20 Remember the word I spoke to you: ‘A slave is not greater than his master.’(C) If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word,(D) they will also keep yours. 21 But they will do all these things to you on account of My name,(E) because they don’t know(F) the One who sent Me.

John 15:18-21
King James Version
18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
19 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.
20 Remember the word that I said unto 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 unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.
