John 15:18

The World's Hatred For The Disciples

¹⁷ This command I you, that ye love together. ¹⁸ "If the world hate you, ye know that he hated me before he hated you. ¹⁹ If ye were of the world, the world would love his own. Howbeit, because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore hateth you the world.
