1 “Yo soy la vid verdadera y mi padre es el jardinero.
1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.
2 Él corta de mí cada una de las ramas que no llevan fruto. Él poda las ramas que llevan fruto a fin de que lleven mucho más fruto.
2 Every branch in me that doesn’t bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
3 Ustedes ya están podados y limpios por lo que les he dicho.
3 You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
4 Permanezcan en mí, y yo permaneceré en ustedes. Así como una rama no puede producir fruto a menos que permanezca siendo parte de la vid, así ocurre con ustedes: no pueden llevar fruto a menos que permanezcan en mí.
4 Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.
5 Yo soy la vid y ustedes las ramas. Los que permanezcan en mí, y yo en ellos, producirán mucho fruto—porque lejos de mí, ustedes no pueden hacer nada.
5 I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
6 Todo aquél que no permanece en mí es como una rama que es cortada y se seca. Tales ramas se juntan, son lanzadas al fuego y quemadas.
6 If a man doesn’t remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 Si ustedes permanecen en mí, y mis palabras en ustedes, entonces pueden pedir cualquier cosa que quieran, y les será dada.
7 If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you.
8 Mi Padre es glorificado cuando ustedes producen mucho fruto, demostrando que son mis discípulos.
8 “In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.
9 “Así como me amó el Padre, yo los he amado a ustedes.
9 Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love.
10 Si ustedes hacen lo que yo digo, permanecerán en mi amor, así como yo hago lo que mi Padre dice y permanezco en su amor.
10 If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, even as I have kept my Father’s commandments and remain in his love.
11 Les he explicado esto para que mi alegría esté en ustedes y así su alegría esté completa.
11 I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full.
12 “Este es mi mandato: ámense unos a otros como yo los he amado a ustedes.
12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.
13 No hay amor más grande que dar la vida por los amigos.
13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
14 Ustedes son mis amigos si hacen lo que yo les digo.
14 You are my friends if you do whatever I command you.
15 Yo no los llamaré más siervos, porque los siervos no son considerados como de confianza por su amo. Yo los llamo amigos, porque todo lo que mi Padre me dijo yo se los he dicho a ustedes.
15 No longer do I call you servants, for the servant doesn’t know what his lord does. But I have called you friends, for everything that I heard from my Father, I have made known to you.
16 Ustedes no me eligieron a mí, yo los elegí a ustedes. Yo les he dado a ustedes la responsabilidad de ir y producir fruto duradero. Entonces el Padre les dará todo lo que pidan en mi nombre.
16 You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
17 Este es mi mandato para ustedes: ámense los unos a los otros.
17 “I command these things to you, that you may love one another.
18 “Si el mundo los odia, recuerden que ya me odió a mi antes que a ustedes.
18 If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.
19 Si ustedes fueran parte de este mundo, el mundo los amaría como parte suya. Pero ustedes no son parte del mundo, y yo los separé del mundo—por eso el mundo los odia.
19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
20 “Recuerden lo que les dije: los siervos no son más importantes que su amo. Si ellos me persiguen a mí, los perseguirán a ustedes también. Si hicieron lo que yo les dije, harán lo que ustedes les digan también.
20 Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his lord.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.
21 Pero todo lo que les hagan a ustedes será por mi causa, porque ellos no conocen a Aquél que me envió.
21 But they will do all these things to you for my name’s sake, because they don’t know him who sent me.
22 Si yo no hubiera venido a hablarles, ellos no serían culpables de pecado—pero ahora ellos no tienen excusa para su pecado.
22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.
23 Cualquiera que me odia, odia también a mi Padre.
23 He who hates me, hates my Father also.
24 Si yo no les hubiera dado una demostración mediante cosas que nadie ha hecho antes, ellos no serían culpables de pecado; pero a pesar de haber visto todo esto, me odiaron a mí y también a mi Padre.
24 If I hadn’t done among them the works which no one else did, they wouldn’t have had sin. But now they have seen and also hated both me and my Father.
25 Pero esto solo es cumplimiento de lo que dice la Escritura: ‘Ellos me odiaron sin ninguna razón’.
25 But this happened so that the word may be fulfilled which was written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’
26 “Pero yo les enviaré al Consolador de parte del Padre. Cuando él venga, les dará testimonio de mí. Él es el Espíritu de verdad que viene del Padre.
26 “When the Counselor has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will testify about me.
27 Ustedes también darán testimonio de mí porque ustedes estuvieron conmigo desde el principio”.
27 You will also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.

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 …
