If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not sin and now they have no pretext for their sin.
For neither once in word were we flatterers, as ye know, neither in a pretext of covetousness; God the witness:
As free, and as not having liberty for a covering of wickedness, but as the servants of God.

And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Intercessor, that should remain with you forever; The Spirit of truth; which the world cannot receive, for it sees it not, neither knows: and ye know it; for it shall remain with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you orphans; I come to you.
I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me not bearing fruit he takes away: and every one bearing fruit, he cleanses it, that it might bear more fruit. Already are ye clean, through the word which I have spoken to you. read more.
Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, if it remain not in the vine; so neither ye, if ye remain not in me. I am the vine, ye the branches: he remaining in me, and I in him, he bears much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If any remain not in me, he was cast forth as the branch, and was dried up; and they gather them together, and cast into the fire, and they are burned. If ye remain in me, and my words remain in you, ye shall ask whatever ye wish, and it shall be to you. In this was my Father honoured, that ye should bear much fruit: and ye shall be disciples to me. As the Father loved me, I also loved you: remain in my love. If ye keep my commands, ye shall remain in my love; as I have kept my Father's commands, and remain in his love. These things have I spoken to you, that my joy might remain in you, and your joy might be completed. This is my command, That ye love one another, as I loved you. Greater love than this has none, that any lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatever I command you. I no more call you servants; for the servant knows not what his lord does: and I have called you friends; for all which I heard of my Father I made known to you. Ye chose not me, but I chose you, and I have set you, that ye might retire and bear fruit, and your fruit remain: that whatever ye ask the Father in my name, he might give you. These things I command you, that ye love one another. If the world hate you, know that it has hated me the first of you. If ye were of the world, the world had loved its own: and because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word which I said to you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they expelled me, they will also expel you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. But all these will they do to you for my name, for they know not him having sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not sin and now they have no pretext for their sin. He hating me hates my Father also. If I did not the works in them which none other has done, they had not sin: and now have they also seen and hated also me and my Father. But that the word written in their law might be completed, That they hated me gratuitously. And when the Intercessor should come, which I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, which comes from the Father, he shall testify of me:

But now do I retire to him having sent me; and not one of you asks me, Where dost thou retire But because I have spoken these to you, sorrow has filled your heart. But I say the truth to you; it is profitable to you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Intercessor shall not come to you; and if I go, I will send him to you. read more.
And having come, he will convict the world of sin, and of justice, and of judgment: Truly of sin, because they believe not in me; And of justice, because I retire to my Father, and ye see me no more; And of judgment, for the ruler of this world has been judged. I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now. And when he should come, the Spirit of truth, he shall guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatever he should hear, shall he speak: and he shall announce to you the things coming. He shall honour me: for he shall take of mine, and announce to you. All things which the Father has are mine: therefore said I, he shall take of mine, and announce to you.

I am Jehovah thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of servants. There shall be no other God to thee to my face. Thou shalt not make to thee a carved image, and every appearance that is in the heavens above, and that is in the earth beneath, and that is in the water under the earth. read more.

Carry no purse, nor wallet, nor shoes: and greet none by the way. And in whatever house ye enter, first say, Peace to this house. And if truly the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: and if not so, it shall turn back to you. And remain in the same house, eating and drinking the things of them: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house. And in whatever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat the things set before you. And cure the sick in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has drawn near to you. And in whatever city ye enter, and they receive you not, having gone into its spacious ways, say, And the dust having cleaved to us from your city, we wipe off to you but know this, that the kingdom of God has drawn nigh to you. And I say to you, that it shall be more supportable in that day for Sodom, than for that city. Woe to thee Chorazin! woe to thee Bethsaida! for if in Tyre and Sidon were the powers having been in you, long since had they changed the mind, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. But for Tyre and Sidon shall it be more supportable in judgment, than for you. And thou, Capernaurn, indeed even lifted up to heaven, shalt be cast down to hades. He hearing you hears me and he rejecting you rejects me; and he rejecting me rejects him having sent me.

And know thou that Jehovah thy God, he is God, the faithful God, watching the covenant and the kindness to those loving him, and to those watching his commands to the thousandth generation: And recompensing to those hating him to their face to destroy him: he will not delay to him hating him to his face; he will recompense to him.
For Jehovah will judge his people, And upon his servants will he have compassion; When he shall see that the hand has failed, And nothing detained and left And he said, Where their gods, The rock they trusted in it?

If I sharpened the lightning of my sword, And my hand shall lay hold upon judgment, I will turn back vengeance to mine adversaries, And to those hating me I will requite,

For the king trusted in Jehovah, and in the mercy of the Most High he shall not be moved. Thy hand shall find for all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find those hating thee.

Their fruit thou wilt destroy from the earth, and their seed from the sons of man. For they stretched out evil upon thee: they purposed a device, they will not prevail. For thou wilt set them the shoulder among thine being left, thou wilt prepare against their face.

They said, Come, and we will cut them off from a nation; and the name of Israel shall no more be remembered. For they counseled together with the heart: they will cut out a covenant against thee: The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagarites. Gebel and Ammon and Amalek; the rovers with the inhabitants of Tyre; Also Assur was joined with them: they were an arm to the sons of Lot Silence. Do to them as Midian, as Sisera, as Jabin, at the torrent Bison: They were destroyed at the fountain of the dwelling: they were dung to the earth. Set them their nobles as Oreb, and as Zeeb: and as Zebah and as Zalmunna, all their princes: Who said, We will inherit for us the dwellings of God. O my God, set them as a wheel; as straw before the wind. As fire will burn the forest, and as the flame will cause the mountains to burn. So wilt thou pursue them with thy tempest, and thew wilt terrify them with thy whirlwind: Fill their face with contempt, and they shall seek thy name, O Jehovah. They shall be ashamed and terrified, even to forever; and they shall be put to shame and perish.

If any remain not in me, he was cast forth as the branch, and was dried up; and they gather them together, and cast into the fire, and they are burned.

Greater love than this has none, that any lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatever I command you.

As the Father loved me, I also loved you: remain in my love. If ye keep my commands, ye shall remain in my love; as I have kept my Father's commands, and remain in his love. These things have I spoken to you, that my joy might remain in you, and your joy might be completed. This is my command, That ye love one another, as I loved you. Greater love than this has none, that any lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatever I command you.

If ye were of the world, the world had loved its own: and because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word which I said to you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they expelled me, they will also expel you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. But all these will they do to you for my name, for they know not him having sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not sin and now they have no pretext for their sin.
Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, if it remain not in the vine; so neither ye, if ye remain not in me. I am the vine, ye the branches: he remaining in me, and I in him, he bears much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If any remain not in me, he was cast forth as the branch, and was dried up; and they gather them together, and cast into the fire, and they are burned.
