1 و َقالَ يَسُوعُ: «أنا الكَرمَةُ الحَقِيْقِيَّةُ وَأبِي الكَرّامُ.

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

2 و َهُوَ يَقطَعُ كُلَّ غُصْنٍ فِيَّ لا يُنتِجُ ثَمَراً، وَيُنَقِّي كُلَّ غُصْنٍ مُثْمِرٍ لِكَيْ يُنتِجَ ثَمَراً أكثَرَ.

Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

3 أ نتُمِ الآنَ أنقِياءُ بِسَبَبِ التَّعلِيْمِ الَّذِي أعطَيْتُهُ لَكُمْ.

Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

4 ا ثبُتُوا فِيَّ وَأنا سَأثْبُتُ فِيْكُمْ. لا يَسْتَطِيْعُ الغُصْنُ أنْ يُنتِجَ ثَمَراً وَحدَهُ، إلّا إذا ثَبَتَ فِي ساقِ الكَرمَةِ. كَذَلِكَ أنتُمْ لا تَسْتَطِيْعُونَ أنْ تُنتِجُوا ثَمَراً إلّا إذا ثَبَتُّمْ فِيَّ.

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

5 « أنا الكَرمَةُ، وَأنتُمُ الأغصانُ. فَمَنْ يَثبُتُ فِيَّ وَأثبُتُ أنا فِيْهِ، يُنتِجُ ثَمَراً كَثِيْراً. فَأنتُمْ لا تَستَطِيْعُونَ أنْ تَفعَلُوا شَيْئاً بِدُونِي.

I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

6 و َمَنْ لا يَثبُتُ فِيَّ، فَإنَّهُ يُرمَى كَالغُصْنِ وَيَيْبَسُ. ثُمَّ تُجمَعُ الأغصانُ اليابِسَةُ وَتُلقَى فِي النّارِ وَتَحتَرِقُ.

If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

7 « اثْبُتُوا فِيَّ، وَلْيَثْبُتْ كَلامِي فِيْكُمْ. فَعِندَ ذَلِكَ، اطلُبُوا ما تُرِيْدُونَ وَسَتَنالُونَهُ.

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

8 أ نتِجُوا ثَمَراً كَثِيْراً مُبَرهِنِيْنَ أنَّكُمْ تَلامِيْذِي. فَبِهَذا يَتَمَجَّدُ أبِي.

Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

9 ك َما أحَبَّنِي الآبُ أحبَبْتُكُمْ أنا أيضاً، فَاثْبُتُوا فِي محَبَّتِي.

As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

10 إ نْ أطَعْتُمْ وَصايايَ سَتَثْبُتُونَ فِي مَحَبَّتِي. فَأنا أيضاً أُطِيْعُ وَصايا الآبِ وَأثبُتُ فِي مَحَبَّتِهِ.

If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

11 أ قُولُ لَكُمْ هَذِهِ الأُمُورَ لِكَيْ يَثبُتَ فَرَحِي فِيْكُمْ، وَلِكَيْ يَكُونَ فَرَحُكُمْ تامّاً.

These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

12 « وَهَذِهِ هِيَ وَصِيَّتِي لَكُمْ: أحِبُّوا بَعضَكُمْ بَعضاً كَما أحبَبْتُكُمْ أنا.

This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

13 أ عظَمُ مَحَبَّةٍ هِيَ مَحَبَّةُ مَنْ يَضَحِّي بِنَفسِهِ مِنْ أجلِ أحِبّائِهِ.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

14 و َأنتُمْ أحِبّائِي إنْ أطَعْتُمْ ما أُوصِيْكُمْ بِهِ.

Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

15 ل ا أُسَمِّيْكُمْ عَبِيْداً الآنَ، فَالعَبْدُ لا يَعرِفُ ما الَّذِي يَفعَلُهُ سَيِّدُهُ. بَلْ أُسَمِّيْكُمْ أحِبّاءً، لِأنَّنِي قَدْ أخبَرْتُكُمْ بِكُلِّ ما سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ أبِي.

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.

16 « لَسْتُمْ أنتُمُ الَّذِيْنَ اختَرتُمُونِي، بَلْ أنا اختَرْتُكُمْ وَعَيَّنْتُكُمْ لِكَيْ تَذْهَبُوا وَتُنتِجُوا ثَمَراً، وَيَدُومَ ثَمَرُكُمْ. حِيْنَئِذٍ يُعطِيْكُمُ الآبُ أيَّ شَيْءٍ تَطلُبُونَهُ باسْمِي.

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.

17 ه َذا هُوَ ما أُوصِيْكُمْ بِهِ: أنْ تُحِبُّوا بَعضَكُمْ بَعضاً.» يَسُوعُ يُنَبِّهُ تَلامِيْذَه

These things I command you, that ye love one another.

18 و َقالَ يَسُوعُ: «إنْ أبْغَضَكُمِ العالَمُ، فَتَذَكَّرُوا أنَّهُ أبْغَضَني قَبلَكُمْ.

If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

19 ل َوْ كُنتُمْ تَنتَمُونَ إلَى العالَمِ، لَكانَ العالَمُ يُحِبُّكُمْ كَما يُحِبُّ أهلَهُ. أمّا أنتُمْ فَلا تَنتَمُونَ إلَى العالَمِ، فَأنا اختَرتُكُمْ مِنَ العالَمِ، لِهَذا يُبْغِضُكُمِ العالَمُ.

If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

20 « تَذَكَّرُوا ما قُلْتُهُ لَكُمْ: ‹ما مِنْ عَبدٍ أعظَمُ مِنْ سَيِّدِهِ.› إنْ أساءَ النّاسُ إلَيَّ، فَسَيُسِيْئُونَ إلَيْكُمْ أيضاً. وَإنْ أطاعُوا تَعلِيْمِي فَسَيُطِيْعُونَ تَعلِيْمَكُمْ أيضاً.

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.

21 س َيَفعَلُونَ ذَلِكَ كُلَّهُ بِسَبَبِ اسْمِي، لِأنَّهُمْ لا يَعرِفُونَ ذاكَ الَّذِي أرسَلَنِي.

But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.

22 و َلَوْ لَمْ آتِ وَأُكَلِّمْهُمْ، لَما كانُوا مُذْنِبِيْنَ. أمّا الآنَ فَلا عُذْرَ لَهُمْ عَلَى خَطِيَّتِهِمْ.

If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin.

23 « مَنْ يُبْغِضُني فَهُوَ يُبْغِضُ أبِي أيضاً.

He that hateth me hateth my Father also.

24 و َلَوْ لَمْ أعمَلْ بَيْنَهُمْ أعمالاً لَمْ يَعمَلْها أحَدٌ قَبلِي، لَما كانَ عَلَيْهِمْ ذَنبٌ.

If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.

25 ل َكِنْ هَذا حَدَثَ لِكَي يَتَحَقَّقَ ما كُتِبَ فِي شَرِيْعَتِهِمْ: ‹أبغَضُونِي بِلا سَبَبٍ.›»

But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.

26 و َعِندَما يَأْتِي المُعِيْنُ الَّذِي سَأُرسِلُهُ مِنْ عِندِ الآبِ، رُوحُ الحَقِّ الَّذِي يَخرُجُ مِنَ الآبِ، فَهُوَ سَيَشْهَدُ لِي.

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:

27 و َأنتُمْ أيضاً سَتَشْهَدُونَ لِي، لِأنَّكُمْ كُنتُمْ مَعِي مُنذُ البِدايَةِ.

And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
