人为朋友舍命,人的爱心没有比这个更大的。
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
你们若遵行我所吩付的,就是我的朋友了。
Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
以后我不再称你们为仆人。因仆人不知道主人所作的事。我乃称你们为朋友。因我从我父所听见的。已经都告诉你们了。
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 of my Father I have made known unto you.
不是你们拣选了我,是我拣选了你们,并且分派你们去结果子,叫你们的果子长存。使你们奉我的名,无论向父求什么,他就赐给你们。
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
世人若恨你们,你们知道(或作该知道)恨你们以先,已经恨我了。
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
你们要记念我从前对你们所说的话,仆人不能大于主人。他们若逼迫了我,也要逼迫你们。若遵守了我的话,也要遵守你们的话。
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.
我若没有来教训他们,他们就没有罪。但如今他们的罪无可推诿了。
If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin.
但我要从父那里差保惠师来,就是从父出来真里的圣灵。他来了,就要为我作见证。
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
你们也要作见证,因为你们从起头就与我同在。
And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
于是教会送他们起行,他们经过腓尼基,撒玛利亚,随处传说外邦人归主的事,叫众弟兄都甚欢喜。
And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
