John 15:16-18
The Voice
16 You did not choose Me. I chose you, and I orchestrated all of this so that you would be sent out and bear great and perpetual fruit. As you do this, anything you ask the Father in My name will be done. 17 This is My command to you: love one another.
18 If you find that the world despises you, remember that before it despised you, it first despised Me.
John 15:16-18
New International Version
16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you(A) so that you might go and bear fruit(B)—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.(C) 17 This is my command: Love each other.(D)
The World Hates the Disciples
18 “If the world hates you,(E) keep in mind that it hated me first.
