NKJV

NIV

1 "I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.
1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.
2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunesso that it will be even more fruitful.
3 You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.
4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
5 I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
6 If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.
7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.
7 If you remain in me and my words remain 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; so you will be My disciples.
8 This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.
9 "As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love.
9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain 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.
10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love.
11 These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.
11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.
12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
13 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.
13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.
14 You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.
14 You are my friends if you do what I command.
15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.
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.
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 remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.
16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.
17 These things I command you, that you love one another.
17 This is my command: Love each other.
