The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 50: John: The Challoner Revision
Bible. John
15:8. In this is my Father glorified: that you bring forth very much
fruit and become my disciples.
15:9. As the Father hath loved me, I also have loved you. Abide in my
love.
15:10. If you keep my commandments, you shall abide in my love: as I
also have kept my Father's commandments and do abide in his love.
15:11. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and
your joy may be filled.
15:12. This is my commandment, that you love one another, as I have
loved you.
15:13. Greater love than this no man hath, that a man lay down his life
for his friends.
15:14. You are my friends, if you do the things that I command you.
15:15. I will not now call you servants: for the servant knoweth not
what his lord doth. But I have called you friends because all things,
whatsoever I have heard of my Father, I have made known to you.
15:16. You have not chosen me: but I have chosen you; and have appointed
you, that you should go and should bring forth fruit; and your fruit
should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in my name,
he may give it you.
15:17. These things I command you, that you love one another.
15:18. If the world hate you, know ye that it hath hated me before you.
15:19. If you had been of the world, the world would love its own: but
because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the
world, therefore the world hateth you.
15:20. Remember my word that I said to you: The servant is not greater
than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute
you. If they have kept my word, they will keep yours also.
15:21. But all these things they will do to you for my name's sake:
because they know not him that sent me.
15:22. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin:
but now they have no excuse for their sin.
15:23. He that hateth me hateth my Father also.
15:24. If I had not done among them the works that no other man hath
done, they would not have sin: but now they have both seen and hated
both me and my Father.
15:25. But that the word may be fulfilled which is written in their law:
they hated me without cause.
15:26. But when the Paraclete cometh, whom I will send you from the
Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceedeth from the Father, he shall
give testimony of me.
Whom I will send... This proves, against the modern Greeks, that the
Holy Ghost proceedeth from the Son, as well as from the Father:
otherwise he could not be sent by the Son.
15:27. And you shall give testimony, because you are with me from the
beginning.
John Chapter 16
The conclusion of Christ's last discourse to his disciples.
16:1. These things have I spoken to you things have I spoken to you that
you may not be scandalized.
16:2. They will put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh,
that whosoever killeth you will think that he doth a service to God.
16:3. And these things will they do to you; because they have not known
the Father nor me.
