約15

約翰福音-John 第 15 章

15:1	我是真葡萄樹，我父是栽培的人。 I am the true vine, and My Father is the husbandman.
15:2	凡在我裏麵不結果子的枝子，祂就剪去；凡結果子的，祂就修理幹淨，使枝子結果子更多。 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes it away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it that it may bear more fruit.
15:3	現在你們因我講給你們的話，已經幹淨了。 You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
15:4	你們要住在我裏麵，我也住在你們裏麵。枝子若不住在葡萄樹上，自己就不能結果子，你們若不住在我裏麵，也是這樣。 Abide in Me and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me.
15:5	我是葡萄樹，你們是枝子；住在我裏麵的，我也住在他裏麵，這人就多結果子；因為離了我，你們就不能作什麼。 I am the vine; you are the branches. He who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit; for apart from Me you can do nothing.
15:6	人若不住在我裏麵，就像枝子丟在外麵枯幹了，人收集起來，扔在火裏燒了。 If one does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is dried up; and they gather them and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
15:7	你們若住在我裏麵，我的話也住在你們裏麵，凡你們所願意的，祈求就給你們成就。 If you abide in Me and My words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.
15:8	你們多結果子，我父就因此得榮耀，你們也就是我的門徒了。 In this is My Father glorified, that you bear much fruit and so you will become My disciples.
15:9	我愛你們，正如父愛我一樣；你們要住在我的愛裏。 As the Father has loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love.
15:10	你們若遵守我的誡命，就住在我的愛裏，正如我遵守了我父的命令，住在祂的愛裏。 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; even as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.
15:11	這些事我已經對你們說了，是要叫我的喜樂可以在你們裏麵，並叫你們的喜樂可以滿足。 These things I have spoken to you that My joy may be in you and that your joy may be made full.
15:12	你們要彼此相愛，像我愛你們一樣，這就是我的誡命。 This is My commandment, that you love one another even as I have loved you.
15:13	人為朋友舍命，人的愛沒有比這個大的。 No one has greater love than this, that one lay down his life for his friends.
15:14	你們若遵行我所吩咐你們的，就是我的朋友了。 You are My friends if you do what I command you.
15:15	以後我不再稱你們為奴仆，因為奴仆不知道主人所作的事；我乃稱你們為朋友，因我從我父所聽見的，都已經告訴你們了。 No longer do I call you slaves, for the slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all the things which I have heard from My Father I have made known to you.
15:16	不是你們揀選了我，乃是我揀選了你們，並且立了你們，要你們前去，並要你們結果子，且要你們的果子常存，使你們在我的名裏，無論向父求什麼，祂就賜給你們。 You did not choose Me, but I chose you, and I set you that you should go forth and bear fruit and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He may give you.
15:17	我將這些事吩咐你們，是要叫你們彼此相愛。 These things I command you that you may love one another.
15:18	世界若恨你們，你們要知道在恨你們以先，世界已經恨我了。 If the world hates you, know that it has hated Me before you.
15:19	你們若屬世界，世界必愛屬自己的；隻因你們不屬世界，乃是我從世界中把你們揀選出來，所以世界就恨你們。 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	你們要記得我從前對你們所說的話，奴仆並不大過主人。他們若逼迫了我，也要逼迫你們；若遵守了我的話，也要遵守你們的話。 Remember the word which I said to you, A slave is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted Me, they will persecute you also; if they have kept My word, they will keep yours also.
15:21	但他們因我的名，要向你們行這一切的事，因為他們不認識那差我來的。 But all these things they will do to you because of My name, because they do not know Him who sent Me.
15:22	我若沒有來對他們說話，他們就沒有罪；但如今他們的罪無可推諉了。 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.
15:23	恨我的，也恨我的父。 He who hates Me hates My Father also.
15:24	我若沒有在他們中間行過別人未曾行的事，他們就沒有罪；但如今連我與我的父，他們都看見了，也都恨了。 If I did not do among them the works which no one else has done, they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated both Me and My Father.
15:25	這不過是要應驗他們律法上所寫的話：“他們無故的恨我。” But it is so that the word written in their law may be fulfilled, "They hated Me without cause.''
15:26	但我要從父差保惠師來，就是從父出來實際的靈，祂來了，就要為我作見證； But when the Comforter comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of reality, who proceeds from the Father, He will testify concerning Me;
15:27	你們也要作見證，因為你們從起初就與我同在。 And you testify also, because from the beginning you have been with Me.
