John 15:10-19 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

10. If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and remain in his love.

11. “I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.

12. This is my commandment: love one another as I love you.

13. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

14. You are my friends if you do what I command you.

15. I no longer call you slaves, because a slave does not know what his master is doing. I have called you friends, because I have told you everything I have heard from my Father.

16. It was not you who chose me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name he may give you.

17. This I command you: love one another.

18. “If the world hates you, realize that it hated me first.

19. If you belonged to the world, the world would love its own; but because you do not belong to the world, and I have chosen you out of the world, the world hates you.
