1 I am the true vine and my Father is the gardener.

2 He takes away every branch in me which has no fruit, and every branch which has fruit he makes clean, so that it may have more fruit.

3 You are clean, even now, through the teaching which I have given you.

4 Be in me at all times as I am in you. As the branch is not able to give fruit of itself, if it is not still on the vine, so you are not able to do so if you are not in me.

5 I am the vine, you are the branches: he who is in me at all times as I am in him, gives much fruit, because without me you are able to do nothing.

6 If a man does not keep himself in me, he becomes dead and is cut off like a dry branch; such branches are taken up and put in the fire and burned.

7 If you are in me at all times, and my words are in you, then anything for which you make a request will be done for you.

8 Here is my Father's glory, in that you give much fruit and so are my true disciples.

9 Even as the Father has given me his love, so I have given my love to you: be ever in my love.

10 If you keep my laws, you will be ever in my love, even as I have kept my Father's laws, and am ever in his love.

11 I have said these things to you so that I may have joy in you and so that your joy may be complete.

12 This is the law I give you: Have love one for another, even as I have love for you.

13 Greater love has no man than this, that a man gives up his life for his friends.

14 You are my friends, if you do what I give you orders to do.

15 No longer do I give you the name of servants; because a servant is without knowledge of what his master is doing: I give you the name of friends, because I have given you knowledge of all the things which my Father has said to me.

16 You did not take me for yourselves, but I took you for myself; and I gave you the work of going about and producing fruit which will be for ever; so that whatever request you make to the Father in my name he may give it to you.

17 So this is my law for you: Have love one for another.

18 If you are hated by the world, keep in mind that I was hated by the world before you.

19 If you were of the world, you would be loved by the world: but because you are not of the world, but I have taken you out of the world, you are hated by the world.

20 Keep in mind the words I said to you, A servant is not greater than his lord. If they were cruel to me, they will be cruel to you; if they kept my words, they will keep yours.

21 They will do all this to you because of my name--because they have no knowledge of him who sent me.

22 If I had not come and been their teacher they would have had no sin: but now they have no reason to give for their sin.

23 He who has hate for me has hate for my Father.

24 If I had not done among them the works which no other man ever did, they would have had no sin: but now they have seen, and they have had hate in their hearts for me and my Father.

25 This comes about so that the writing in their law may be made true, Their hate for me was without cause.

26 When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father even the Spirit of true knowledge who comes from the Father--he will give witness about me;

27 And you, in addition, will give witness because you have been with me from the first.

1 Ko ahau te waina pono, ko toku Matua te kaimahi.

2 Ko nga manga katoa i roto i ahau e kore e whai hua, e tangohia e ia: ko nga mea katoa hoki e whai hua ana, ka whakapaia e ia, kia maha atu ai ona hua.

3 Na kua ma tenei koutou i te kupu i korerotia e ahau ki a koutou.

4 Kia u koutou ki roto ki ahau, me ahau hoki ki roto ki a koutou. Ka rite hoki ki te manga e kore e whai hua ko ia anake, ki te kahore e u ki te waina; e kore ano hoki koutou, ki te kore e u ki roto ki ahau.

5 Ko ahau te waina, ko koutou nga manga: ki te u tetahi ki roto ki ahau, me ahau hoki ki roto ki a ia, ka maha o tera hua: ki te motu ke hoki i ahau, e kore tetahi mea e taea e koutou.

6 Ki te kore e u tetahi ki roto ki ahau, ka maka atu ia, ano he manga, a ka maroke; na ka kohikohia, ka maka ki te kapura, ka tahuna.

7 Ki te u koutou ki roto ki ahau, ki te u ano aku kupu ki roto ki a koutou, inoia e koutou ta koutou e pai ai, a ka meatia ma koutou.

8 Ka whakakororiatia toku Matua ki te penei, ki te whai hua maha koutou: a ka meinga koutou he akonga naku.

9 Rite tonu ki to te Matua aroha ki ahau toku aroha ki a koutou: kia u ki toku aroha.

10 Ki te pupuri koutou i aku ture, ka u koutou ki toku aroha: me ahau hoki kua pupuri nei i nga ture a toku Matua, ka u nei ki tona aroha.

11 Kua korerotia enei mea e ahau ki a koutou, kia pumau ai toku koa i roto i a koutou, kia tino ki ai to koutou koa.

12 Ko taku ture tenei, Kia aroha koutou tetahi ki tetahi, me ahau hoki kua aroha nei ki a koutou.

13 Kahore he aroha o tetahi i rahi ake i tenei, ara kia tuku te tangata i a ia ano kia mate mo ona hoa.

14 Ko koutou oku hoa, ki te meatia e koutou aku e whakahau nei ki a koutou.

15 Heoi ano taku meatanga he pononga koutou; e kore hoki te pononga e mohio ki ta tona ariki e mea ai: engari kua oti koutou te hua e ahau he hoa; ko aku mea katoa hoki i rongo ai ahau ki toku Matua, kua oti te whakakite e ahau ki a koutou.

16 Kahore koutou i whiriwhiri i ahau, engari naku koutou i whiriwhiri, naku ano koutou i mea kia haere, kia whai hua, kia mau tonu hoki o koutou hua: a ko ta koutou e inoi ai ki te Matua i runga i toku ingoa, ka hoatu e ia ki a koutou.

17 Ko aku whakahau enei ki a koutou, kia aroha koutou tetahi ki tetahi.

18 Ki te mea e kinongia ana koutou e te ao, e mohio ana koutou i kinongia ahau i mua i a koutou.

19 Mehemea no te ao koutou, e arohaina e te ao ona: tena ko tenei ehara nei koutou i te ao, naku koutou i whiriwhiri i roto i te ao, koia te ao ka kino ai ki a koutou.

20 Kia mahara ki te kupu i korero ai ahau ki a koutou, kahore te pononga e rahi ake i tona ariki. Ki te mea i whakatoia ahau e ratou, ka whakatoia ano koutou; ki te mea i pupuri ratou i taku kupu, ka pupuri ano ratou i ta koutou.

21 Otira e meatia katoatia enei mea e ratou ki a koutou he whakaaro ki toku ingoa, no te mea kahore ratou i mohio ki toku kaitono mai.

22 Me i kaua ahau te haere mai, te korero ki a ratou, penei kahore o ratou hara: tena ko tenei kahore o ratou whakaoraora mo to ratou hara.

23 Ko te tangata e whakakino ana ki ahau, e whakakino ana hoki ki toku Matua.

24 Me i kaua te mahia e ahau i roto i a ratou nga mahi kahore i mahia e tetahi atu, penei kahore o ratou hara: tena ko tenei kua kite ratou, kua whakakino ano hoki ki a maua tahi ko toku Matua.

25 Ma tenei ia ka rite ai te kupu i tuhituhia ki ta ratou ture, Kua kino noa ratou ki ahau.

26 Otiia ka tae mai te Kaiwhakamarie e tonoa mai e ahau ki a koutou i te Matua, te Wairua o te pono, e puta mai ana i te Matua, ko ia hei kaiwhakaatu moku:

27 Ko koutou ano hoki hei kaiwhakaatu, no te mea i ahau koutou no te timatanga iho ra ano.
