约翰福音 15
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
耶稣是真葡萄树
15 “我是真葡萄树,我父是培植的人。 2 所有属我而不结果子的枝子,他就剪去;所有结果子的,他就修剪干净,让它结更多的果子。 3 现在你们因着我对你们所讲的道,已经干净了。 4 你们要住在我里面,我也就住在你们里面。枝子若不连在葡萄树上,自己就不能结果子;你们若不住在我里面,也是这样。 5 我是葡萄树,你们是枝子。住在我里面的,我也住在他里面,他就结出很多果子;因为离开了我,你们就不能作甚么。 6 人若不住在我里面,就像枝子丢在外面枯干了,人把它们拾起来,丢在火里烧掉了。 7 你们若住在我里面,我的话也留在你们里面;无论你们想要甚么,祈求,就给你们成就。 8 这样,你们结出很多果子,我父就因此得荣耀,你们也就是我的门徒了。 9 父怎样爱我,我也怎样爱你们;你们要住在我的爱里。 10 如果你们遵守我的命令,就必定住在我的爱里,正像我遵守了我父的命令,住在他的爱里一样。
11 “我把这些事告诉了你们,好让我的喜乐存在你们心里,并且使你们的喜乐满溢。 12 你们要彼此相爱,像我爱你们一样,这就是我的命令。 13 人为朋友舍命,人间的爱没有比这个更大的了。 14 你们若行我所吩咐你们的,就是我的朋友了。 15 我不再称你们为仆人,因为仆人不知道主人所作的事;我已经称你们为朋友了,因为我从我父那里听见的一切,都已经告诉你们了。 16 不是你们拣选了我,而是我拣选了你们,并且分派你们去结果子,就是结常存的果子,使你们奉我的名,无论向父求甚么,他必定赐给你们。 17 我把这些事吩咐你们,是要你们彼此相爱。
世人恨主也恨门徒
18 “如果世人恨你们,你们要知道他们在恨你们以先,已经恨我了。 19 你们若属于这世界,世人必定爱属自己的;但因为你们不属于世界,而是我从世界中拣选了你们,所以世人就恨你们。 20 你们要记住我对你们说过的话:‘仆人不能大过主人。’他们若迫害我,也必定迫害你们;他们若遵守我的话,也必定遵守你们的话。 21 但他们因着我的名,要向你们行这一切,因为他们不认识那差我来的。 22 如果我没有来,也没有对他们讲过甚么,他们就没有罪;但现在他们的罪是无可推诿的了。 23 恨我的,也恨我的父。 24 如果我没有在他们中间作过别人没有作过的事,他们就没有罪;但现在我和我的父,他们都看见了,也都恨恶。 25 这就应验了他们律法上所写的话:‘他们无故地恨我。’
26 “我从父那里要差来给你们的保惠师,就是从父那里出来的真理的灵,他来到的时候,要为我作见证。 27 你们也要作见证,因为从开始你们就是跟我在一起的。”

Chinese New Version (Traditional)
耶穌是真葡萄樹
15 “我是真葡萄樹,我父是培植的人。 2 所有屬我而不結果子的枝子,他就剪去;所有結果子的,他就修剪乾淨,讓它結更多的果子。 3 現在你們因著我對你們所講的道,已經乾淨了。 4 你們要住在我裡面,我也就住在你們裡面。枝子若不連在葡萄樹上,自己就不能結果子;你們若不住在我裡面,也是這樣。 5 我是葡萄樹,你們是枝子。住在我裡面的,我也住在他裡面,他就結出很多果子;因為離開了我,你們就不能作甚麼。 6 人若不住在我裡面,就像枝子丟在外面枯乾了,人把它們拾起來,丟在火裡燒掉了。 7 你們若住在我裡面,我的話也留在你們裡面;無論你們想要甚麼,祈求,就給你們成就。 8 這樣,你們結出很多果子,我父就因此得榮耀,你們也就是我的門徒了。 9 父怎樣愛我,我也怎樣愛你們;你們要住在我的愛裡。 10 如果你們遵守我的命令,就必定住在我的愛裡,正像我遵守了我父的命令,住在他的愛裡一樣。
11 “我把這些事告訴了你們,好讓我的喜樂存在你們心裡,並且使你們的喜樂滿溢。 12 你們要彼此相愛,像我愛你們一樣,這就是我的命令。 13 人為朋友捨命,人間的愛沒有比這個更大的了。 14 你們若行我所吩咐你們的,就是我的朋友了。 15 我不再稱你們為僕人,因為僕人不知道主人所作的事;我已經稱你們為朋友了,因為我從我父那裡聽見的一切,都已經告訴你們了。 16 不是你們揀選了我,而是我揀選了你們,並且分派你們去結果子,就是結常存的果子,使你們奉我的名,無論向父求甚麼,他必定賜給你們。 17 我把這些事吩咐你們,是要你們彼此相愛。
世人恨主也恨門徒
18 “如果世人恨你們,你們要知道他們在恨你們以先,已經恨我了。 19 你們若屬於這世界,世人必定愛屬自己的;但因為你們不屬於世界,而是我從世界中揀選了你們,所以世人就恨你們。 20 你們要記住我對你們說過的話:‘僕人不能大過主人。’他們若迫害我,也必定迫害你們;他們若遵守我的話,也必定遵守你們的話。 21 但他們因著我的名,要向你們行這一切,因為他們不認識那差我來的。 22 如果我沒有來,也沒有對他們講過甚麼,他們就沒有罪;但現在他們的罪是無可推諉的了。 23 恨我的,也恨我的父。 24 如果我沒有在他們中間作過別人沒有作過的事,他們就沒有罪;但現在我和我的父,他們都看見了,也都恨惡。 25 這就應驗了他們律法上所寫的話:‘他們無故地恨我。’
26 “我從父那裡要差來給你們的保惠師,就是從父那裡出來的真理的靈,他來到的時候,要為我作見證。 27 你們也要作見證,因為從開始你們就是跟我在一起的。”
John 15
King James Version
15 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 purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto 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 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.
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.
8 Herein 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 unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might 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 whatsoever 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 of my Father I have made known unto 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 whatsoever 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 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.
22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin.
23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also.
24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, 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 unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
John 15
New King James Version
The True Vine
15 “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 (A)Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He [a]takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear (B)more fruit. 3 (C)You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4 (D)Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much (E)fruit; for without Me you can do (F)nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, (G)he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you abide in Me, and My words (H)abide in you, (I)you[b] will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8 (J)By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; (K)so you will be My disciples.
Love and Joy Perfected
9 “As the Father (L)loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. 10 (M)If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.
11 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and (N)that your joy may be full. 12 (O)This is My (P)commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 (Q)Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. 14 (R)You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. 15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, (S)for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. 16 (T)You did not choose Me, but I chose you and (U)appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father (V)in My name He may give you. 17 These things I command you, that you love one another.
The World’s Hatred
18 (W)“If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. 19 (X)If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet (Y)because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 20 Remember the word that I said to you, (Z)‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. (AA)If they kept My word, they will keep yours also. 21 But (AB)all these things they will do to you for My name’s sake, because they do not know Him who sent Me. 22 (AC)If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin, (AD)but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 (AE)He who hates Me hates My Father also. 24 If I had not done among them (AF)the works which no one else did, they would have no sin; but now they have (AG)seen and also hated both Me and My Father. 25 But this happened that the word might be fulfilled which is written in their law, (AH)‘They hated Me without a cause.’
The Coming Rejection
26 (AI)“But when the [c]Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, (AJ)He will testify of Me. 27 And (AK)you also will bear witness, because (AL)you have been with Me from the beginning.
