1 Ja sam pravi čokot, i Otac je moj vinogradar; 2 svaku lozu na meni koja ne rađa roda odseći će je; i svaku koja rađa rod očistiće je da više roda rodi. 3 Vi ste već očišćeni rečju koju vam govorih. 4 Budite u meni i ja ću u vama. Kao što loza ne može roda roditi sama od sebe, ako ne bude na čokotu, tako i vi ako na meni ne budete. 5 Ja sam čokot a vi loze; i koji bude u meni i ja u njemu on će roditi mnogi rod; jer bez mene ne možete činiti ništa. 6 Ko u meni ne ostane izbaciće se napolje kao loza, i osušiće se, i skupiće je, i u oganj baciti, i spaliti. 7 Ako ostanete u meni i reči moje u vama ostanu, šta god hoćete ištite, i biće vam. 8 Tim će se Otac moj proslaviti, da rod mnogi rodite; i bićete moji učenici. 9 Kao što Otac ima ljubav k meni, i ja imam ljubav k vama; budite u ljubavi mojoj. 10 Ako zapovesti moje uzdržite ostaćete u ljubavi mojoj, kao što ja održah zapovesti Oca svog i ostajem u ljubavi Njegovoj. 11 Ovo vam kazah, da radost moja u vama ostane i radost vaša se ispuni. 12 Ovo je zapovest moja da imate ljubav među sobom, kao što ja imadoh ljubav k vama. 13 Od ove ljubavi niko veće nema, da ko dušu svoju položi za prijatelje svoje. 14 Vi ste prijatelji moji ako tvorite šta vam ja zapovedam. 15 Više vas ne nazivam slugama; jer sluga ne zna šta radi gospodar njegov; nego vas nazvah prijateljima; jer vam sve kazah što čuh od Oca svog. 16 Vi mene ne izabraste, nego ja vas izabrah, i postavih vas da vi idete i rod rodite; i da vaš rod ostane, da šta god zaištete u Oca u ime moje da vam da. 17 Ovo vam zapovedam da imate ljubav među sobom. 18 Ako svet na vas uzmrzi, znajte da na mene omrznu pre vas. 19 Kad biste bili od sveta, onda bi svet svoje ljubio; a kako niste od sveta, nego vas ja od sveta izbrah, zato mrzi na vas svet. 20 Opominjite se reči koju vam ja rekoh: nije sluga veći od gospodara svog. Ako mene izgnaše, i vas će izgnati; ako moju reč održaše, i vašu će održati. 21 Ali sve će vam ovo činiti za ime moje, jer ne poznaju Onog koji me posla. 22 Da nisam bio došao i govorio im ne bi greha imali; a sad izgovora neće imati za greh svoj. 23 Koji mrzi na mene i na Oca mog mrzi. 24 Da nisam bio i dela tvorio među njima kojih niko drugi ne tvori, ne bi greha imali; a sad i videše, i omrznuše na mene i na Oca mog. 25 Ali da se zbude reč napisana u zakonu njihovom: Omrznuše na me nizašta. 26 A kad dođe utešitelj, koga ću vam poslati od Oca, Duh istine, koji od Oca izlazi, On će svedočiti za mene. 27 A i vi ćete svedočiti, jer ste od početka sa mnom.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Jesus called Himself the vine, and His disciples the branches, and His Father the husbandman; whereon we have already discoursed as we were able.

… Him, as He does Himself declare to His disciples: "I will not now call you servants, for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth; but I have called you friends, for all things which I have heard from My Father I have made known." For in that which He says, "I will not now call you servants," He indicates …
… handed down to us from the Lord, and to do nothing that our Lord has not first done for us: so that the cup which is offered in remembrance of Him should be mixed with wine. For, as Christ says, I am the true vine,' it follows that the blood of Christ is wine, not water; and the cup cannot …

For "He will burn the chaff," saith he, "with unquenchable fire." Thou seest that He is Lord of all things, and that He is Himself the Husbandman; albeit in another place He calls His Father the same. For "My Father," saith He, "is the Husbandman." Thus, inasmuch as He had spoken of an axe, lest thou shouldest suppose that the …
