Johannes 15
Hoffnung für Alle
Der Weinstock und die Reben
15 »Ich bin der wahre Weinstock, und mein Vater ist der Weingärtner. 2 Alle Reben am Weinstock, die keine Trauben tragen, schneidet er ab. Aber die Frucht tragenden Reben beschneidet er sorgfältig, damit sie noch mehr Frucht bringen. 3 Ihr seid schon gute Reben, weil ihr meine Botschaft gehört habt. 4 Bleibt fest mit mir verbunden, und ich werde ebenso mit euch verbunden bleiben! Denn eine Rebe kann nicht aus sich selbst heraus Früchte tragen, sondern nur, wenn sie am Weinstock hängt. Ebenso werdet auch ihr nur Frucht bringen, wenn ihr mit mir verbunden bleibt.
5 Ich bin der Weinstock, und ihr seid die Reben. Wer mit mir verbunden bleibt, so wie ich mit ihm, der trägt viel Frucht. Denn ohne mich könnt ihr nichts ausrichten. 6 Wer ohne mich lebt, wird wie eine unfruchtbare Rebe abgeschnitten und weggeworfen. Die verdorrten Reben werden gesammelt, ins Feuer geworfen und verbrannt. 7 Wenn ihr aber fest mit mir verbunden bleibt und euch meine Worte zu Herzen nehmt, dürft ihr von Gott erbitten, was ihr wollt; ihr werdet es erhalten. 8 Wenn ihr viel Frucht bringt und euch so als meine Jünger erweist, wird die Herrlichkeit meines Vaters sichtbar.
9 Wie mich der Vater liebt, so liebe ich euch. Bleibt in meiner Liebe! 10 Wenn ihr nach meinen Geboten lebt, wird meine Liebe euch umschließen. Auch ich richte mich nach den Geboten meines Vaters und lebe in seiner Liebe. 11 Das alles sage ich euch, damit meine Freude euch erfüllt und eure Freude dadurch vollkommen wird. 12 Und so lautet mein Gebot: Liebt einander, wie ich euch geliebt habe.
13 Niemand liebt mehr als einer, der sein Leben für die Freunde hingibt. 14 Und ihr seid meine Freunde, wenn ihr tut, was ich euch aufgetragen habe. 15 Ich nenne euch nicht mehr Diener; denn einem Diener sagt der Herr nicht, was er vorhat. Ihr aber seid meine Freunde; denn ich habe euch alles anvertraut, was ich vom Vater gehört habe. 16 Nicht ihr habt mich erwählt, sondern ich habe euch erwählt. Ich habe euch dazu bestimmt, dass ihr euch auf den Weg macht und Frucht bringt – Frucht, die bleibt. Dann wird euch der Vater alles geben, worum ihr ihn in meinem Namen bittet. 17 Das ist mein Auftrag an euch: Liebt einander!«
Womit Jünger von Jesus rechnen müssen
18 »Wenn die Menschen euch hassen, dann vergesst nicht, dass man mich schon vor euch gehasst hat. 19 Diese Welt würde euch lieben, wenn ihr zu ihr gehören würdet. Doch ihr gehört nicht mehr dazu. Ich selbst habe euch erwählt und aus der Welt herausgerufen. Darum hasst sie euch. 20 Erinnert euch daran, dass ich gesagt habe: ›Ein Diener steht niemals höher als sein Herr!‹[a] Deshalb werden sie euch verfolgen, wie sie mich verfolgt haben. Und wenn sie auf meine Worte gehört haben, werden sie auch auf eure hören.
21 Das alles wird mit euch geschehen, weil ihr euch zu mir bekennt; denn die Welt kennt Gott nicht, der mich gesandt hat. 22 Wäre ich nicht in diese Welt gekommen und hätte die Menschen gelehrt, wären sie nicht schuldig. Aber jetzt gibt es keine Entschuldigung mehr dafür, dass sie Gott den Rücken kehren. 23 Denn wer mich hasst, der hasst auch meinen Vater. 24 Wenn ich nicht vor ihren Augen Wunder vollbracht hätte, die kein anderer je getan hat, wären sie ohne Schuld. Aber nun haben sie alles miterlebt, und trotzdem hassen sie mich und auch meinen Vater. 25 Dies geschieht, damit in Erfüllung geht, was in ihrem Gesetz steht: ›Sie hassen mich ohne jeden Grund!‹[b]
26 Wenn ich beim Vater bin, will ich euch den Helfer senden, von dem ich gesprochen habe, den Geist der Wahrheit. Er wird vom Vater kommen und bezeugen, wer ich bin. 27 Und auch ihr werdet meine Zeugen sein, denn ihr seid von Anfang an bei mir gewesen.«

Nova Versão Transformadora
Jesus, a videira verdadeira
15 “Eu sou a videira verdadeira, e meu Pai é o lavrador. 2 Todo ramo que, estando em mim, não dá fruto, ele corta. Todo ramo que dá fruto, ele poda, para que produza ainda mais. 3 Vocês já foram limpos pela mensagem que eu lhes dei. 4 Permaneçam em mim, e eu permanecerei em vocês. Pois, assim como um ramo não pode produzir fruto se não estiver na videira, vocês também não poderão produzir frutos a menos que permaneçam em mim.
5 “Sim, eu sou a videira; vocês são os ramos. Quem permanece em mim, e eu nele, produz muito fruto. Pois, sem mim, vocês não podem fazer coisa alguma. 6 Quem não permanece em mim é jogado fora, como um ramo imprestável, e seca. Esses ramos são ajuntados num monte para serem queimados. 7 Mas, se vocês permanecerem em mim e minhas palavras permanecerem em vocês, pedirão o que quiserem, e isso lhes será concedido! 8 Quando vocês produzem muitos frutos, trazem grande glória a meu Pai e demonstram que são meus discípulos de verdade.
9 “Eu os amei como o Pai me amou. Permaneçam no meu amor. 10 Quando vocês obedecem a meus mandamentos, permanecem no meu amor, assim como eu obedeço aos mandamentos de meu Pai e permaneço no amor dele. 11 Eu lhes disse estas coisas para que fiquem repletos da minha alegria. Sim, sua alegria transbordará! 12 Este é meu mandamento: Amem uns aos outros como eu amo vocês. 13 Não existe amor maior do que dar a vida por seus amigos. 14 Vocês serão meus amigos se fizerem o que eu ordeno. 15 Já não os chamo de escravos, pois o senhor não faz confidências a seus escravos. Agora vocês são meus amigos, pois eu lhes disse tudo que o Pai me disse. 16 Vocês não me escolheram; eu os escolhi. Eu os chamei para irem e produzirem frutos duradouros, para que o Pai lhes dê tudo que pedirem em meu nome. 17 Este é meu mandamento: Amem uns aos outros.”
Os discípulos de Jesus e o mundo
18 “Se o mundo os odeia, lembrem-se de que primeiro odiou a mim. 19 O mundo os amaria se pertencessem a ele, mas vocês já não fazem parte do mundo. Eu os escolhi para que não mais pertençam ao mundo, e por isso o mundo os odeia. 20 Vocês se lembram do que eu lhes disse: ‘O escravo não é maior que o seu senhor’? Uma vez que eles me perseguiram, também os perseguirão. E, se obedeceram à minha palavra, também obedecerão à sua. 21 Farão tudo isso a vocês por minha causa, pois rejeitaram aquele que me enviou. 22 Eles não seriam culpados se eu não tivesse vindo nem lhes falado. Agora, porém, não têm desculpa por seu pecado. 23 Quem me odeia também odeia meu Pai. 24 Se eu não tivesse realizado no meio deles sinais que ninguém mais pode realizar, eles não seriam culpados. Agora, porém, viram tudo que fiz e, no entanto, ainda odeiam a mim e a meu Pai. 25 Isso cumpre o que está registrado nas Escrituras deles:[a] ‘Odiaram-me sem motivo’.
26 “Mas eu enviarei a vocês o Encorajador,[b] o Espírito da verdade. Ele virá do Pai e testemunhará a meu respeito. 27 E vocês também devem testemunhar a meu respeito, porque estão comigo desde o início.”
John 15
New International Version
The Vine and the Branches
15 “I am(A) the true vine,(B) and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit,(C) while every branch that does bear fruit(D) he prunes[a] so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.(E) 4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you.(F) No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit;(G) apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.(H) 7 If you remain in me(I) and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.(J) 8 This is to my Father’s glory,(K) that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.(L)
9 “As the Father has loved me,(M) so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commands,(N) you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.(O) 12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.(P) 13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.(Q) 14 You are my friends(R) if you do what I command.(S) 15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.(T) 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you(U) so that you might go and bear fruit(V)—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.(W) 17 This is my command: Love each other.(X)
The World Hates the Disciples
18 “If the world hates you,(Y) keep in mind that it hated me first. 19 If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you(Z) out of the world. That is why the world hates you.(AA) 20 Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’[b](AB) If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also.(AC) If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. 21 They will treat you this way because of my name,(AD) for they do not know the one who sent me.(AE) 22 If I had not come and spoken to them,(AF) they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.(AG) 23 Whoever hates me hates my Father as well. 24 If I had not done among them the works no one else did,(AH) they would not be guilty of sin.(AI) As it is, they have seen, and yet they have hated both me and my Father. 25 But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law:(AJ) ‘They hated me without reason.’[c](AK)
The Work of the Holy Spirit
26 “When the Advocate(AL) comes, whom I will send to you from the Father(AM)—the Spirit of truth(AN) who goes out from the Father—he will testify about me.(AO) 27 And you also must testify,(AP) for you have been with me from the beginning.(AQ)

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.
