7. if ye may remain in me, and my sayings in you may remain, whatever ye may wish ye shall ask, and it shall be done to you.
8. `In this was my Father glorified, that ye may bear much fruit, and ye shall become my disciples.
9. According as the Father did love me, I also loved you, remain in my love;
10. if my commandments ye may keep, ye shall remain in my love, according as I the commands of my Father have kept, and do remain in His love;
11. these things I have spoken to you, that my joy in you may remain, and your joy may be full.
12. `This is my command, that ye love one another, according as I did love you;
13. greater love than this hath no one, that any one his life may lay down for his friends;
14. ye are my friends, if ye may do whatever I command you;
15. no more do I call you servants, because the servant hath not known what his lord doth, and you I have called friends, because all things that I heard from my Father, I did make known to you.
16. `Ye did not choose out me, but I chose out you, and did appoint you, that ye might go away, and might bear fruit, and your fruit might remain, that whatever ye may ask of the Father in my name, He may give you.
17. `These things I command you, that ye love one another;
18. if the world doth hate you, ye know that it hath hated me before you;
19. if of the world ye were, the world its own would have been loving, and because of the world ye are not--but I chose out of the world--because of this the world hateth you.
20. `Remember the word that I said to you, A servant is not greater than his lord; if me they did persecute, you also they will persecute; if my word they did keep, yours also they will keep;
21. but all these things will they do to you, because of my name, because they have not known Him who sent me;
22. if I had not come and spoken to them, they were not having sin; but now pretext they have not for their sin.
