John 15:9-17
Legacy Standard Bible
9 Just as (A)the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love. 10 (B)If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as (C)I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love. 11 (D)These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your (E)joy may be complete.
Jesus’ Commandment Is Love
12 “This is (F)My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you. 13 (G)Greater love has no one than this, that one (H)lay down his life for his friends. 14 You are My (I)friends if (J)you do what I command you. 15 No longer do I call you slaves, for the slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for (K)all things that I have heard from My Father I have made known to you. 16 (L)You did not choose Me but I chose you, and appointed you that you would go and (M)bear fruit, and that your fruit would abide, so that (N)whatever you ask of the Father in My name He may give to you. 17 This (O)I command you, that you love one another.

John 15:9-17
New International Version
9 “As the Father has loved me,(A) so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commands,(B) 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.(C) 12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.(D) 13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.(E) 14 You are my friends(F) if you do what I command.(G) 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.(H) 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you(I) so that you might go and bear fruit(J)—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.(K) 17 This is my command: Love each other.(L)
