16 Vocês não me escolheram, mas eu os escolhi para irem e darem fruto, fruto que permaneça, a fim de que o Pai lhes conceda o que pedirem em meu nome.

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.
