John 15 - UPDV Updated Bible Version

^15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
^15:2 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit, he takes it away: and every [branch] that bears fruit, he cleanses it, that it may bear more fruit.
^15:3 Already you⁺ are clean because of the word which I have spoken to you⁺.
^15:4 Stay in me, and I in you⁺. As the branch can't bear fruit of itself, except it stays in the vine; so neither can you⁺, except you⁺ stay in me.
^15:5 I am the vine, you⁺ are the branches: He who stays in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit: for apart from me you⁺ can do nothing.
^15:6 If a man does not stay in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
^15:7 If you⁺ stay in me, and my words stay in you⁺, ask whatever you⁺ will, and it will be done to you⁺.
^15:8 In this is my Father glorified, that you⁺ may bear much fruit and may be my disciples.
^15:9 Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you⁺: stay⁺ in my love.
^15:10 If you⁺ keep my commandments, you⁺ will stay in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and stay in his love.
^15:11 These things I have spoken to you⁺, that my joy may be in you⁺, and [that] your⁺ joy may be made full.
^15:12 This is my commandment, that you⁺ love one another, even as I have loved you⁺.
^15:13 Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
^15:14 You⁺ are my friends, if you⁺ do the things which I command you⁺.
^15:15 No longer do I call you⁺ slaves; for the slave doesn't know what his lord does: but I have called you⁺ friends; for all things that I heard from my Father I have made known to you⁺.
^15:16 You⁺ did not choose me, but I chose you⁺, and appointed you⁺, that you⁺ should go and bear fruit, and [that] your⁺ fruit should stay: that whatever you⁺ will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you⁺.
^15:17 These things I command you⁺, that you⁺ may love one another.
^15:18 If the world hates you⁺, you⁺ know that it has hated me before [it hated] you⁺.
^15:19 If you⁺ were of the world, the world would love its own: but because you⁺ are not of the world, but I chose you⁺ out of the world, therefore the world hates you⁺.
^15:20 Remember the word that I said to you⁺, A slave 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.
^15:21 But all these things they will do to you⁺ for my name's sake, because they don't know him who sent me.
^15:22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not had sin: but now they have no excuse for their sin.
^15:23 He who hates me hates my Father also.
^15:24 If I had not done among them the works which none other did, they had not had sin: but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.
^15:25 But [this comes to pass], that the word may be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
^15:26 When the Supporter has come, whom I will send to you⁺ from the Father, [even] the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness of me:
^15:27 and you⁺ also bear witness, because you⁺ have been with me from the beginning.
