John 15:9-17
New American Standard Bible
9 Just as (A)the Father has loved Me, I also have loved you; remain in My love. 10 (B)If you keep My commandments, you will remain in My love; just as (C)I have kept My Father’s commandments and remain 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 made full.
Disciples’ Relation to Each Other
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 a person will (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, because (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 remain, 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.
