John 15:19-25

CLV(i) 19 If you were of the world, the world would be fond of its own. Now, seeing that you are not of the world, but I choose you out of the world, therefore the world is hating you." 20 Remember the word which I said to you, 'A slave is not greater than his lord.' If Me they persecute, you they will be persecuting also. If My word they keep, yours also will they be keeping." 21 But all these things will they be doing to you because of My name, seeing that they are not acquainted with Him Who sends Me." 22 If I came not and speak to them, they had no sin. Yet now they have no pretense concerning their sin." 23 He who is hating Me is hating My Father also. 24 If I do not the works among them which no other one does, they had no sin. Yet now they have seen also, and they have hated Me as well as My Father, 25 but it is that the word written in their law may be fulfilled, that they hate Me gratuitously."
