John 15:11-23

¹¹These thinges have I spoken vnto you that my ioye myght remayne in you and that youre ioye might be full.

¹²This is my commaundement that ye love togedder as I have loved you.

¹³Gretter love then this hath no man then that a man bestowe his lyfe for his frendes.

¹⁴Ye are my fredes yf ye do whatsoever I commaunde you.

¹⁵Hence forth call I you not servauntes: for the servaunt knoweth not what his Lorde doeth. But you have I called frendes: for all thinges that I have hearde of my father I have opened to you.

¹⁶Ye have not chosen me but I have chosen you and ordeyned you that ye go and bringe forthe frute and that youre frute remayne that whatsoever ye shall axe of the father in my name he shulde geve it you.

¹⁷This commaunde I you that ye love to gedder.

¹⁸Yf the worlde hate you ye knowe that he hated me before he hated you.

¹⁹Yf ye were of the worlde the worlde wolde love his awne. How be it because ye are not of the worlde but I have chosen you out of the worlde therfore hateth you the worlde.

²⁰Remember the sayinge that I sayde vnto you: the servaute is not greater then his lorde. Yf they have persecuted me so will they persecute you Yf they have kept my sayinge so will they kepe youres.

²¹But all these thinges will they do vnto you for my names sake because they have not knowen him that sent me.

²²If I had not come and spoken vnto them they shulde not have had synne: but now have they nothinge to cloke their synne with all.

²³He that hateth me hateth my father.
