Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
16 Ye did not choose me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that ye should go and bear fruit, and [that] your fruit should abide: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
17 These things I command you, that ye may love one another.
18 If the world hateth you, ye know that it hath hated me before [it hated] you.
19 If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
20 Remember the word that I said unto you, A servant is not greater than his lord. If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they kept my word, 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 excuse for their sin.
