JOHN XIV.

I have said unto you. (27) Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. (28) Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for 2 my Father is greater than I. (29) And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe. (30) Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. (31) But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.

§ 139. Christ the True Vine. His Disciples hated by the World. - JERUSALEM.

Evening introducing the Sixth Day of the Week.

JOHN XV. 1-27.

(1) I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. (2) Every branch in me that beareth not fruit, he taketh away and every branch that beareth fruit, he 3 purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. (3) Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. (4) Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. (5) I am the vine, ye are the branches: he that abideth in me, and I in him, the same 5 bringeth forth much fruit: for 6 without me ye can do nothing. (6) If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. (7) If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. (8) Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. (9) As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you : 7 continue ye in my love. (10) If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. (11) These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

7

(12) This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. (13) Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (14) Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. (15) 9 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth : but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard 10 of my Father I have made known unto you. (16) Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and 11 ordained that you, should ye go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should 7 remain that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. (17) These things I command you, that ye love one another. (18) If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. (19) If ye were of the world, the world would love his own but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

(20) Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. (21) But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me. (22) If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin but now they have no 13 cloak for their sin. (23) He that hateth me hateth my Father also. (24) If I had not done among them the works which none other 14 man did, they had not had sin : but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father. (25) But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law,a They hated me

without a cause. (26) But when the 1 Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall 2 testify of me: (27) and ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

(1) These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. (2) They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. (3) And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me. (4) But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you. (5) But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou? (6) But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

7

(7) Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the 1 Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. (8) And when he is come, he will reprove the world 9 of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: (9) of sin, because they believe not on me; (10) of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; (11) of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. (12) I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. (13) Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak 10 of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak and he will 11 shew you things to come. (14) He shall glorify me : for he shall 12 receive of mine, and shall 18 shew it unto you. (15) All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall 18 shew it unto you. (16) A little while, and ye shall not see me and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, 14 because I go to the Father.

(17) Then said some of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see me and again, a little while, and yo shall see me and, Because I go to the Father? (18) They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith. (19) Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do ye inquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me and again, a little

while, and ye shall see me? (20) Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep

and lament, but the world shall rejoice and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. (21) A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. (22) And ye now therefore have sorrow but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you. (23) And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, 16 Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father 17 in my name, he will give it you. (24) Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

15

(25) These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: 18 but the time cometh, when

[blocks in formation]

JOHN XVI.

I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall 1shew you plainly of the Father. (26) At that day ye shall ask in my name and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you: (27) for the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God. (28) I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father. (29) His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb. (30) Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God. (31) Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? (32) Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. (33) These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world 2 ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

§ 141. Christ's Last Prayer with his Disciples. - JERUSALEM.

Evening introducing the Sixth Day of the Week.

JOHN XVII. 1-26.

(1) These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that 4thy Son also may glorify thee: (2) as thou hast given him 5 power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. (3) And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. (4) I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. (5) And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

(6) I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. (7) Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. (8) For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me. (9) I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. (10) And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. (11) And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. (12) While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them 10 is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled." (13) And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. (14) I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. (15) I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the 11 evil. (16) They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. (17) Sanctify them 12 through thy truth: thy word is truth. (18) As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. (19) And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified 18 through the truth.

(20) Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; (21) that they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. (22) And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: (23) I in them, and thou in me, that they may be

made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

(24) Father, I 1 will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory which thou hast given me for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. (25) O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me. (26) And I have 2 declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

(37) And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy. (38) Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: 9 tarry ye here, and watch with me. (39) And he went 10 a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed,

(33) And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy ; (34) and saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here and watch. (35) And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might 11 pass from him.
