Johannes 15 | English Standard Version

I Am the True Vine

1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. 5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. 7 If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. 9 As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. 10 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 be in you, and that your joy may be full. 12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command you. 15 No longer do I call you servants,* for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you. 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. 17 These things I command you, so that you will love one another.

The Hatred of the World

18 “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but 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: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours. 21 But all these things they will do to you on account of my name, because they do not know him who sent me. 22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have been guilty of sin,* but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 Whoever hates me hates my Father also. 24 If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin, but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. 25 But the word that is written in their Law must be fulfilled: ‘They hated me without a cause.’ 26 “But when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness about me. 27 And you also will bear witness, because you have been with me from the beginning.

الكتاب المقدس

الكرمة والأغصان

1 أَنَا الْكَرْمَةُ الْحَقِيقِيَّةُ، وَأَبِي هُوَ الْكَرَّامُ. 2 كُلُّ غُصْنٍ فِيَّ لَا يُنْتِجُ ثَمَراً يَقْطَعُهُ؛ وَكُلُّ غُصْنٍ يُنْتِجُ ثَمَراً يُنَقِّيهِ لِيُنْتِجَ مَزِيداً مِنَ الثَّمَرِ. 3 أَنْتُمُ الآنَ أَنْقِيَاءُ بِسَبَبِ الْكَلِمَةِ الَّتِي خَاطَبْتُكُمْ بِها. 4 فَاثْبُتُوا فِيَّ وَأَنَا فِيكُمْ. كَمَا أَنَّ الْغُصْنَ لَا يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُنْتِجَ ثَمَراً إِلّا إِذَا ثَبَتَ فِي الْكَرْمَةِ؛ فَكَذلِكَ أَنْتُمْ، إِلّا إِذَا ثَبَتُّمْ فِيَّ. 5 أَنَا الْكَرْمَةُ وَأَنْتُمُ الأَغْصَانُ. مَنْ يَثْبُتُ فِيَّ وَأَنَا فِيهِ، فَذَاكَ يُنْتِجُ ثَمَراً كَثِيراً. فَإِنَّكُمْ بِمَعْزِلٍ عَنِّي لَا تَقْدِرُونَ أَنْ تَفْعَلُوا شَيْئاً. 6 إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ لَا يَثْبُتُ فِيَّ يُطْرَحُ خَارِجاً كَالْغُصْنِ فَيَجِفُّ؛ ثُمَّ تُجْمَعُ الأَغْصَانُ الْجَافَّةُ، وَتُطْرَحُ فِي النَّارِ فَتَحْتَرِقُ. 7 وَلكِنْ، إِنْ ثَبَتُّمْ فِيَّ، وَثَبَتَ كَلامِي فِيكُمْ، فَاطْلُبُوا مَا تُرِيدُونَ يَكُنْ لَكُمْ. 8 بِهَذَا يَتَمَجَّدُ أَبِي: أَنْ تُنْتِجُوا ثَمَراً كَثِيراً فَتَكُونُوا حَقّاً تَلامِيذِي. 9 مِثْلَمَا أَحَبَّنِي الآبُ، أَحْبَبْتُكُمْ أَنَا، فَاثْبُتُوا فِي مَحَبَّتِي. 10 إِنْ عَمِلْتُمْ بِوَصَايَايَ، تَثْبُتُونَ فِي مَحَبَّتِي، كَمَا عَمِلْتُ أَنَا بِوَصَايَا أَبِي وَأَثْبُتُ فِي مَحَبَّتِهِ! 11 قُلْتُ لَكُمْ هَذَا لِيَكُونَ فِيكُمْ فَرَحِي، وَيَكُونَ فَرَحُكُمْ كَامِلاً. 12 وَصِيَّتِي لَكُمْ هِيَ هذِهِ: أَنْ يُحِبَّ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضاً كَمَا أَنَا أَحْبَبْتُكُمْ. 13 لَيْسَ لأَحَدٍ مَحَبَّةٌ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ هذِهِ: أَنْ يَبْذِلَ أَحَدٌ حَيَاتَهُ فِدَى أَحِبَّائِهِ. 14 وَأَنْتُمْ أَحِبَّائِي إِنْ عَمِلْتُمْ بِمَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ. 15 لَا أُسَمِّيكُمْ عَبِيداً بَعْدُ، لأَنَّ الْعَبْدَ لَا يُطْلِعُهُ سَيِّدُهُ عَلَى مَا يَفْعَلُهُ. وَلكِنِّي قَدْ سَمَّيْتُكُمْ أَحِبَّاءَ لأَنِّي أَطْلَعْتُكُمْ عَلَى كُلِّ مَا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ أَبِي. 16 لَيْسَ أَنْتُمُ اخْتَرْتُمُونِي، بَلْ أَنَا اخْتَرْتُكُمْ وَعَيَّنْتُكُمْ لِتَنْطَلِقُوا وَتُنْتِجُوا ثَمَراً وَيَدُومَ ثَمَرُكُمْ، فَيُعْطِيَكُمُ الآبُ كُلَّ مَا تَطْلُبُونَهُ بِاسْمِي. 17 فَبِهَذَا أُوصِيكُمْ إِذَنْ: أَنْ تُحِبُّوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضاً.

العالم يبغض التلاميذ

18 إِنْ أَبْغَضَكُمُ الْعَالَمُ، فَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّهُ قَدْ أَبْغَضَنِي مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ. 19 لَوْ كُنْتُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعَالَمِ، لَكَانَ الْعَالَمُ يُحِبُّ أَهْلَهُ، وَلكِنْ لأَنَّكُمْ لَسْتُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعَالَمِ، بَلْ إِنِّي اخْتَرْتُكُمْ مِنْ وَسْطِ الْعَالَمِ، لِذَلِكَ يُبْغِضُكُمُ الْعَالَمُ. 20 اذْكُرُوا الْكَلِمَةَ الَّتِي قُلْتُهَا لَكُمْ: لَيْسَ عَبْدٌ أَعْظَمَ مِنْ سَيِّدِهِ. فَإِنْ كَانَ أَهْلُ الْعَالَمِ قَدِ اضْطَهَدُونِي، فَسَوْفَ يَضْطَهِدُونَكُمْ؛ وَإِنْ كَانُوا قَدْ عَمِلُوا بِكَلِمَتِي، فَسَوْفَ يَعْمَلُونَ بِكَلِمَتِكُمْ. 21 وَلكِنَّهُمْ سَيَفْعَلُونَ هَذَا كُلَّهُ بِكُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ اسْمِي، لأَنَّهُمْ لَا يَعْرِفُونَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي. 22 لَوْ لَمْ آتِ وَأُكَلِّمْهُمْ، لَمَا كَانَتْ لَهُمْ خَطِيئَةٌ؛ وَلكِنْ لَا عُذْرَ لَهُمُ الآنَ فِي خَطِيئَتِهِمْ. 23 الَّذِي يُبْغِضُنِي، يُبْغِضُ أَبِي أَيْضاً. 24 وَلَوْ لَمْ أَعْمَلْ بَيْنَهُمْ أَعْمَالاً لَمْ يَعْمَلْهَا أَحَدٌ غَيْرِي، لَمَا كَانَتْ لَهُمْ خَطِيئَةٌ. وَلكِنَّهُمْ أَبْغَضُونِي وَأَبْغَضُوا أَبِي، مَعَ أَنَّهُمْ رَأَوْا تِلْكَ الأَعْمَالَ. 25 وَقَدْ صَارَ ذلِكَ لِتَتِمَّ الْكَلِمَةُ الْمَكْتُوبَةُ فِي شَرِيعَتِهِمْ: أَبْغَضُونِي بِلا سَبَبٍ! 26 وَعِنْدَمَا يَأْتِي الْمُعِينُ، الَّذِي سَأُرْسِلُهُ لَكُمْ مِنْ عِنْدِ الآبِ، رُوحُ الْحَقِّ الَّذِي يَنْبَثِقُ مِنَ الآبِ، فَهُوَ يَشْهَد لِي، 27 وَتَشْهَدون لِي أَنْتُمْ أَيْضاً، لأَنَّكُمْ مَعِي مِنَ الْبَدَايَةِ.
