John 15:16-17

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁶ You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and I have appointed you [I have planted you], that you might go and bear fruit and keep on bearing, and that your fruit may be lasting [that it may remain, abide], so that whatever you ask the Father in My Name [as ^[a]presenting all that I Am], He may give it to you.

¹⁷ This is what I command you: that you love one another.
