¹`I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman;

¹ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܓܦܬܐ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܘܐܒܝ ܗܘ ܦܠܚܐ ܀

²every branch in me not bearing fruit, He doth take it away, and every one bearing fruit, He doth cleanse by pruning it, that it may bear more fruit;

²ܟܠ ܫܒܫܬܐ ܕܒܝ ܦܐܪܐ ܠܐ ܝܗܒܐ ܫܩܠ ܠܗ ܘܐܝܕܐ ܕܝܗܒܐ ܦܐܪܐ ܡܕܟܐ ܠܗ ܕܦܐܪܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܬܝܬܐ ܀

³already ye are clean, because of the word that I have spoken to you;

³ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܟܕܘ ܕܟܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܡܠܠܬ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܀

⁴remain in me, and I in you, as the branch is not able to bear fruit of itself, if it may not remain in the vine, so neither ye, if ye may not remain in me.

⁴ܩܘܘ ܒܝ ܘܐܢܐ ܒܟܘܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܫܒܫܬܐ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܐ ܕܬܬܠ ܦܐܪܐ ܡܢ ܢܦܫܗ ܐܠܐ ܡܩܘܝܐ ܒܓܦܬܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܐܦ ܠܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܬܩܘܘܢ ܒܝ ܀

⁵`I am the vine, ye the branches; he who is remaining in me, and I in him, this one doth bear much fruit, because apart from me ye are not able to do anything;

⁵ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܓܦܬܐ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܫܒܫܬܐ ܡܢ ܕܡܩܘܐ ܒܝ ܘܐܢܐ ܒܗ ܗܢܐ ܡܝܬܐ ܦܐܪܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܕܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܥܒܕ ܡܕܡ ܀

⁶if any one may not remain in me, he was cast forth without as the branch, and was withered, and they gather them, and cast to fire, and they are burned;

⁶ܐܠܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܢܫ ܡܩܘܐ ܒܝ ܡܫܬܕܐ ܠܒܪ ܐܝܟ ܫܒܫܬܐ ܕܝܒܫܐ ܘܠܩܛܝܢ ܪܡܝܢ ܠܗ ܒܢܘܪܐ ܕܬܐܩܕ ܀

⁷if ye may remain in me, and my sayings in you may remain, whatever ye may wish ye shall ask, and it shall be done to you.

⁷ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܬܩܘܘܢ ܒܝ ܘܡܠܝ ܢܩܘܝܢ ܒܟܘܢ ܟܠ ܡܐ ܕܬܨܒܘܢ ܠܡܫܐܠ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܀

⁸`In this was my Father glorified, that ye may bear much fruit, and ye shall become my disciples.

⁸ܒܗܕܐ ܡܫܬܒܚ ܐܒܐ ܕܦܐܪܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܬܝܬܘܢ ܘܬܗܘܘܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܝ ܀

⁹According as the Father did love me, I also loved you, remain in my love;

⁹ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܚܒܢܝ ܐܒܝ ܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܐܚܒܬܟܘܢ ܩܘܘ ܒܪܚܡܬܝ ܕܝܠܝ ܀

¹⁰if my commandments ye may keep, ye shall remain in my love, according as I the commands of my Father have kept, and do remain in His love;

¹⁰ܐܢ ܦܘܩܕܢܝ ܬܛܪܘܢ ܬܩܘܘܢ ܒܚܘܒܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܢܛܪܬ ܦܘܩܕܢܘܗܝ ܕܐܒܝ ܘܡܩܘܐ ܐܢܐ ܒܚܘܒܗ ܀

¹¹these things I have spoken to you, that my joy in you may remain, and your joy may be full.

¹¹ܗܠܝܢ ܡܠܠܬ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܕܚܕܘܬܝ ܬܗܘܐ ܒܟܘܢ ܘܬܫܬܡܠܐ ܚܕܘܬܟܘܢ ܀

¹²`This is my command, that ye love one another, according as I did love you;

¹²ܗܢܘ ܦܘܩܕܢܝ ܕܬܚܒܘܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܚܒܬܟܘܢ ܀

¹³greater love than this hath no one, that any one his life may lay down for his friends;

¹³ܚܘܒܐ ܕܪܒ ܡܢ ܗܢܐ ܠܝܬ ܕܐܢܫ ܢܦܫܗ ܢܤܝܡ ܚܠܦ ܪܚܡܘܗܝ ܀

¹⁴ye are my friends, if ye may do whatever I command you;

¹⁴ܐܢܬܘܢ ܪܚܡܝ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܢ ܬܥܒܕܘܢ ܟܠ ܕܡܦܩܕ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܀

¹⁵no more do I call you servants, because the servant hath not known what his lord doth, and you I have called friends, because all things that I heard from my Father, I did make known to you.

¹⁵ܠܐ ܡܟܝܠ ܩܪܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܥܒܕܐ ܠܐ ܝܕܥ ܡܢܐ ܥܒܕ ܡܪܗ ܪܚܡܝ ܕܝܢ ܩܪܝܬܟܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܟܠ ܕܫܡܥܬ ܡܢ ܐܒܝ ܐܘܕܥܬܟܘܢ ܀

¹⁶`Ye did not choose out me, but I chose out you, and did appoint you, that ye might go away, and might bear fruit, and your fruit might remain, that whatever ye may ask of the Father in my name, He may give you.

¹⁶ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܓܒܝܬܘܢܢܝ ܐܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܗܘ ܓܒܝܬܟܘܢ ܘܤܡܬܟܘܢ ܕܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܬܐܙܠܘܢ ܬܝܬܘܢ ܦܐܪܐ ܘܦܐܪܝܟܘܢ ܢܩܘܘܢ ܕܟܠ ܕܬܫܐܠܘܢ ܠܐܒܝ ܒܫܡܝ ܢܬܠ ܠܟܘܢ ܀

¹⁷`These things I command you, that ye love one another;

¹⁷ܗܠܝܢ ܡܦܩܕ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܬܚܒܘܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܀

¹⁸if the world doth hate you, ye know that it hath hated me before you;

¹⁸ܘܐܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܤܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܥܘ ܕܩܕܡܝܟܘܢ ܠܝ ܤܢܐ ܀

¹⁹if of the world ye were, the world its own would have been loving, and because of the world ye are not — but I chose out of the world — because of this the world hateth you.

¹⁹ܘܐܠܘ ܡܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܠܕܝܠܗ ܪܚܡ ܗܘܐ ܐܠܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܐܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܓܒܝܬܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܤܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܀

²⁰`Remember the word that I said to you, A servant is not greater than his lord; if me they did persecute, you also they will persecute; if my word they did keep, yours also they will keep;

²⁰ܥܗܕܘ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܠܝܬ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܪܒ ܡܢ ܡܪܗ ܐܢ ܠܝ ܪܕܦܘ ܐܦ ܠܟܘܢ ܢܪܕܦܘܢ ܘܐܢ ܡܠܬܝ ܢܛܪܘ ܐܦ ܕܝܠܟܘܢ ܢܛܪܘܢ ܀

²¹but all these things will they do to you, because of my name, because they have not known Him who sent me;

²¹ܐܠܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܢܥܒܕܘܢ ܒܟܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܫܡܝ ܕܝܠܝ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܠܡܢ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܀

²²if I had not come and spoken to them, they were not having sin; but now pretext they have not for their sin.

²²ܐܠܘ ܐܢܐ ܠܐ ܐܬܝܬ ܡܠܠܬ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܠܝܬ ܗܘܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܚܛܝܬܐ ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܠܝܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܥܠܬܐ ܥܠ ܐܦܝ ܚܛܝܬܗܘܢ ܀

²³`He who is hating me, doth hate also my Father;

²³ܡܢ ܕܠܝ ܤܢܐ ܘܐܦ ܠܐܒܝ ܤܢܐ ܀

²⁴if I did not do among them the works that no other hath done, they were not having sin, and now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father;

²⁴ܘܐܠܘ ܥܒܕܐ ܠܐ ܥܒܕܬ ܠܥܢܝܗܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܢܫ ܐܚܪܝܢ ܠܐ ܥܒܕ ܠܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܚܛܝܬܐ ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܘܚܙܘ ܘܤܢܘ ܐܦ ܠܝ ܘܐܦ ܠܐܒܝ ܀

²⁵but — that the word may be fulfilled that was written in their law — They hated me without a cause.

²⁵ܕܬܬܡܠܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܟܬܝܒܐ ܒܢܡܘܤܗܘܢ ܕܤܢܐܘܢܝ ܡܓܢ ܀

²⁶`And when the Comforter may come, whom I will send to you from the Father — the Spirit of truth, who from the Father doth come forth, he will testify of me;

²⁶ܡܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܐܬܐ ܦܪܩܠܛܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܢܐ ܡܫܕܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܝ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܝ ܢܦܩ ܗܘ ܢܤܗܕ ܥܠܝ ܀

²⁷and ye also do testify, because from the beginning ye are with me.

²⁷ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܤܗܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܫܘܪܝܐ ܥܡܝ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀
