Jesús quen itemecayo on uvas

15  'Nejhua niquen tlen melahuac itemecayo on uvas, niman noTajtzin quen on yejhuan quitlapia on temecatl. Yejhua quitequi nochi nomatzitzihuan yejhuan xtlaqui, pero quitlacuijcuilia niman quichipahua on nomatzitzihuan yejhuan tlaquij para más ma tlaquican. Nemejhuamej yej yonenchipajquej itechcopa on temachtijli yejhuan yonemechijlij. Nochipa xnemican nohuan, niman nejhua no nochipa ninemis nemohuan. Tla xnennemisquej nohuan, xhuelis nentlaquisquej sa no ijqui quen imahuan on uvas xhuelisquej tlaquisquej tla xquipia itemecayo. Nejhua quen se itemecayo on uvas niman nemejhuamej quen nennomatzitzihuan. Xitlaj huelis nenquichihuasquej tla xnennemisquej nohuan. On yejhuan nochipa nemis nohuan niman nochipa ninemis ihuan quipias miyec itlaquilyo. On yejhuan xnochipa nemis nohuan, quitequechehuasquej notech niman huaquis quen se cuamatli. Tla ijcon nochihuas on cuamatli ye quisentlalijtiasquej para quitlatisquej.

'Tla nemejhuamej nennemisquej nohuan niman nenquejehuasquej notlajtol impan nemoyojlo, nenhuelisquej nentlajtlanisquej san tlen nenquinequisquej, niman ijqui nochihuas. Ijcuac nemejhuamej nenquipiaj miyec tlacyotl, noTajtzin quiselia hueyilistli, niman ijqui nenquiteititiaj ica nemejhuamej melahuac nennotemachtijcahuan. Nejhua nemechtlajsojtla ijcon quen noTajtzin nechtlajsojtla. Xchihuacan quen nenhuelisquej para nenquiselijtiasquej notetlajsojtlalis. 10 Tla nenquitlacamatztiasquej notlanahuatilhuan, nenquiselijtiasquej notetlajsojtlalis ijcon quen nejhua nictlacamatztiu itlanahuatilhuan noTajtzin niman nicselijtiu itetlajsojtlalis.

11 'Nejhua ijcon nemechnojnotza para nipaquis nemopampa niman nemejhuamej nemopaquilis ajsitias. 12 In yejhua notlanahuatil: Xmotlajsojtlacan ihuan ocsequimej ijcon quen nejhua nemechtlajsojtla. 13 On tetlajsojtlalistli más hueyi yejhuan se huelis quipias sa no yejhua on ica ma miqui impampa itetlajsojcahuan. 14 Niman nemejhuamej nennotetlajsojcahuan tla nenquichihuaj tlen nejhua nemechnahuatia. 15 Xoc nemechtocayotia tequichijquej pampa se tequichijquetl xquimati tlen quichihua iteco. Pero nemechtocayotia notetlajsojcahuan pampa yonemechijlij nochi tlen noTajtzin onechijlij. 16 Nemejhuamej xonennechtlapejpenijquej, yej nejhua onemechtlapejpenij niman onemechtlalij ipan notequiu para xhuiyan niman xpiacan miyec tlacyotl yejhuan nocahuas para nochipa. Quemaj noTajtzin mechmacas nochi tlen nenquitlajtlanilisquej ican notoca. 17 Yejhua in, tej, nemechnahuatia: Xmotlajsojtlacan nemejhuamej ihuan ocsequimej.

On tlalticpactlacamej quitlahuelitaj Jesús ihuan inomachtijcahuan

18 'Tla on tlalticpactlacamej mechtlahuelitaj, xmatican ica achtopa onechtlahuelitaquej nejhua. 19 Tla nemejhuamej nemohuicasquiaj quen on tlalticpactlacamej yejhuan xnechneltocaj, yejhuamej mechtlajsojtlasquiaj quen yejhuamej notlajsojtlaj. Pero nejhua onemechtlapejpenij intzajlan on tlalticpactlacamej. Yejhua ica on tlalticpactlacamej mechtlahuelitaj pampa xoc nemohuicaj quen yejhuamej. 20 Xquelnamiquican on tlen onemechijlij: “Xacaj tlaquehuajli más hueyixticaj xquen on iteco.” Tla nejhua nechtlajyohuiltiaj, nemejhuamej no mechtlajyohuiltisquej. Niman tla oquitlacamatquej notemachtil, no quitlacamatisquej on yejhuan nemejhuamej nemotemachtil. 21 Nochi in sa nopampa mechchihuilisquej, pampa xquixmatij on yejhuan onechajtitlan.

22 'Tla nejhua, tej, xniquinhuajnojnotzasquia, yejhuamej xquipiasquiaj tlajtlacojli. Pero aman xacaj huelis quijtos: “Ijcuac onitlajtlacoj, xonicmat ica on tlen onicchiu tlajtlacojli.” 23 Tej, on yejhuan nechtlahuelitaj, no quitlahuelitaj noTajtzin. 24 Xquipiasquiaj tlajtlacojli, tla xnicchihuasquia intzajlan on tlen xqueman yacaj oquichiu. Pero miyec tlajtlamach yoquitaquej onicchiu, niman yej nechtlahuelitaj niman no quitlahuelitaj noTajtzin. 25 Pero yejhua in ijquin nochihua para tenquisa on tlajtojli yejhuan tlajcuilolnesticaj ipan intlanahuatil yejhuan quijtohua: “Onechtlahuelitaquej, pero nion oncaj tlinon ica.”

26 'Pero nicuajtitlanis on tlapalehuijquetl yejhuan quisas itech noTajtzin. Yejhua on Espíritu Santo yejhuan tecajsicamachiltis on tlen melahuac. Ijcuac yejhua huajlas nechteixpantilis. 27 Niman nemejhuamej no nennechteixpantilisquej, pampa desde onipeu nitemachtia, nohuan nennemij.

The Vine and the Branches

15 “I am(A) the true vine,(B) and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit,(C) while every branch that does bear fruit(D) he prunes[a] so that it will be even more fruitful. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.(E) Remain in me, as I also remain in you.(F) No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit;(G) apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.(H) If you remain in me(I) and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.(J) This is to my Father’s glory,(K) that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.(L)

“As the Father has loved me,(M) so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commands,(N) you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.(O) 12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.(P) 13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.(Q) 14 You are my friends(R) if you do what I command.(S) 15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.(T) 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you(U) so that you might go and bear fruit(V)—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.(W) 17 This is my command: Love each other.(X)

The World Hates the Disciples

18 “If the world hates you,(Y) keep in mind that it hated me first. 19 If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you(Z) out of the world. That is why the world hates you.(AA) 20 Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’[b](AB) If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also.(AC) If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. 21 They will treat you this way because of my name,(AD) for they do not know the one who sent me.(AE) 22 If I had not come and spoken to them,(AF) they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.(AG) 23 Whoever hates me hates my Father as well. 24 If I had not done among them the works no one else did,(AH) they would not be guilty of sin.(AI) As it is, they have seen, and yet they have hated both me and my Father. 25 But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law:(AJ) ‘They hated me without reason.’[c](AK)

The Work of the Holy Spirit

26 “When the Advocate(AL) comes, whom I will send to you from the Father(AM)—the Spirit of truth(AN) who goes out from the Father—he will testify about me.(AO) 27 And you also must testify,(AP) for you have been with me from the beginning.(AQ)
