John:15:18-16:4
isv@John:15:18 @ “If the world hates you, you should realize that it hated me before you.
isv@John:15:19 @ If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own. But because you do not belong to the world and I have chosen you out of it,the world hates you.
isv@John:15:20 @ Remember the word that I spoke to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.
isv@John:15:21 @ They will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know the one who sent me.
isv@John:15:22 @ If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have any sin. But now they have no excuse for their sin.
isv@John:15:23 @ The person who hates me also hates my Father.
isv@John:15:24 @ If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not have any sin. But now they have seen and hated both me and my Father.
isv@John:15:25 @ But this happened so thatthe word written in their law might be fulfilled: ‘They hated me for no reason.’
isv@John:15:26 @ “When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of Truth who comes from the Father, he will testify on my behalf.
isv@John:15:27 @ You will testify also, because you have been with me from the beginning.
isv@John:16:1 @ “I have told you this to keep you from falling away.
isv@John:16:2 @ They will throw you out of the synagogues. Yes, an hour is coming when the one who kills you will think he is serving God!
isv@John:16:3 @ They will do this because they have not known the Father or me.
isv@John:16:4 @ But I have told you this so that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you about them. I did not tell you this in the beginning, because I was with you.”
