John 15 Clementine Vulgate
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 Ego sum vitis vera, et Pater meus agricola est.
1 YO soy la vid verdadera, y mi Padre es el labrador.
1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.
2 Omnem palmitem in me non ferentem fructum, tollet eum, et omnem qui fert fructum, purgabit eum, ut fructum plus afferat.
2 Todo pámpano que en mí no lleva fruto, le quitará: y todo aquel que lleva fruto, le limpiará, para que lleve 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 Jam vos mundi estis propter sermonem quem locutus sum vobis.
3 Ya vosotros sois limpios por la palabra que os he hablado.
3 You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
4 Manete in me, et ego in vobis. Sicut palmes non potest fere fructum a semetipso, nisi manserit in vite, sic nec vos, nisi in me manseritis.
4 Estad en mí, y yo en vosotros. Como el pámpano no puede llevar fruto de sí mismo, si no estuviere en la vid; así ni vosotros, si no estuviereis 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 Ego sum vitis, vos palmites: qui manet in me, et ego in eo, hic fert fructum multum, quia sine me nihil potestis facere.
5 Yo soy la vid, vosotros los pámpanos: el que está en mí, y yo en él, éste lleva mucho fruto; porque sin mí nada podéis hacer.
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 Si quis in me non manserit, mittetur foras sicut palmes, et arescet, et colligent eum, et in ignem mittent, et ardet.
6 El que en mí no estuviere, será echado fuera como [mal] pámpano, y se secará; y los cogen, y los echan en el fuego, y arden.
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 manseritis in me, et verba mea in vobis manserint, quodcumque volueritis petetis, et fiet vobis.
7 Si estuviereis en mí, y mis palabras estuvieren en vosotros, pedid todo lo que quisiereis, y os será hecho.
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 In hoc clarificatus est Pater meus, ut fructum plurimum afferatis, et efficiamini mei discipuli.
8 En esto es glorificado mi Padre, [en] que llevéis mucho fruto, y seáis [así] mis discípulos.
8 “In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.
9 Sicut dilexit me Pater, et ego dilexi vos. Manete in dilectione mea.
9 Como el Padre me amó, también yo os he amado: estad en mi amor.
9 Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love.
10 Si præcepta mea servaveritis, manebitis in dilectione mea, sicut et ego Patris mei præcepta servavi, et maneo in ejus dilectione.
10 Si guardareis mis mandamientos, estaréis en mi amor; como yo también he guardado los mandamientos de mi Padre, y estoy 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 Hæc locutus sum vobis: ut gaudium meum in vobis sit, et gaudium vestrum impleatur.
11 Estas cosas os he hablado, para que mi gozo esté en vosotros, y vuestro gozo sea cumplido.
11 I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full.
12 Hoc est præceptum meum, ut diligatis invicem, sicut dilexi vos.
12 Este es mi mandamiento: Que os améis los unos á los otros, como yo os he amado.
12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.
13 Majorem hac dilectionem nemo habet, ut animam suam ponat qui pro amicis suis.
13 Nadie tiene mayor amor que este, que ponga alguno su vida por sus amigos.
13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
14 Vos amici mei estis, si feceritis quæ ego præcipio vobis.
14 Vosotros sois mis amigos, si hiciereis las cosas que yo os mando.
14 You are my friends if you do whatever I command you.
15 Jam non dicam vos servos: quia servus nescit quid faciat dominus ejus. Vos autem dixi amicos: quia omnia quæcumque audivi a Patre meo, nota feci vobis.
15 Ya no os llamaré siervos, porque el siervo no sabe lo que hace su señor: mas os he llamado amigos, porque todas las cosas que oí de mi Padre, os he hecho notorias.
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 Non vos me elegistis, sed ego elegi vos, et posui vos ut eatis, et fructum afferatis, et fructus vester maneat: ut quodcumque petieritis Patrem in nomine meo, det vobis.
16 No me elegisteis vosotros á mí, mas yo os elegí á vosotros; y os he puesto para que vayáis y llevéis fruto, y vuestro fruto permanezca: para que todo lo que pidiereis del Padre en mi nombre, él os lo dé.
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 Hæc mando vobis: ut diligatis invicem.
17 Esto os mando: Que os améis los unos á los otros.
17 “I command these things to you, that you may love one another.
18 Si mundus vos odit, scitote quia me priorem vobis odio habuit.
18 Si el mundo os aborrece, sabed que á mí me aborreció antes que á vosotros.
18 If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.
19 Si de mundo fuissetis, mundus quod suum erat diligeret: quia vero de mundo non estis, sed ego elegi vos de mundo, propterea odit vos mundus.
19 Si fuerais del mundo, el mundo amaría lo suyo; mas porque no sois del mundo, antes yo os elegí del mundo, por eso os aborrece el mundo.
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 Mementote sermonis mei, quem ego dixi vobis: non est servus major domino suo. Si me persecuti sunt, et vos persequentur; si sermonem meum servaverunt, et vestrum servabunt.
20 Acordaos de la palabra que yo os he dicho: No es el siervo mayor que su señor. Si á mí me han perseguido, también á vosotros perseguirán: si han guardado mi palabra, también guardarán la vuestra.
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 Sed hæc omnia facient vobis propter nomen meum: quia nesciunt eum qui misit me.
21 Mas todo esto os harán por causa de mi nombre, porque no conocen al que me ha enviado.
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 non venissem, et locutus fuissem eis, peccatum non haberent: nunc autem excusationem non habent de peccato suo.
22 Si no hubiera venido, ni les hubiera hablado, no tendrían pecado, mas ahora no tienen excusa de 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 Qui me odit, et Patrem meum odit.
23 El que me aborrece, también á mi Padre aborrece.
23 He who hates me, hates my Father also.
24 Si opera non fecissem in eis quæ nemo alius fecit, peccatum non haberent: nunc autem et viderunt, et oderunt et me, et Patrem meum.
24 Si no hubiese hecho entre ellos obras cuales ningún otro ha hecho, no tendrían pecado; mas ahora, y [las] han visto, y me aborrecen á mí y á 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 Sed ut adimpleatur sermo, qui in lege eorum scriptus est: Quia odio habuerunt me gratis.
25 Mas para que se cumpla la palabra que está escrita en su ley: Que sin causa me aborrecieron.
25 But this happened so that the word may be fulfilled which was written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’
26 Cum autem venerit Paraclitus, quem ego mittam vobis a Patre, Spiritum veritatis, qui a Patre procedit, ille testimonium perhibebit de me;
26 Empero cuando viniere el Consolador, el cual yo os enviaré del Padre, el Espíritu de verdad, el cual procede del Padre, él dará testimonio de mí.
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 et vos testimonium perhibebitis, quia ab initio mecum estis.
27 Y vosotros daréis testimonio, porque estáis 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 …
