John 15
Bible in Basic English (BBE)
13 Ref Greater love has no man than this, that a man gives up his life for his friends.
14 Ref You are my friends, if you do what I give you orders to do.
15 Ref No longer do I give you the name of servants; because a servant is without knowledge of what his master is doing: I give you the name of friends, because I have given you knowledge of all the things which my Father has said to me.
16 Ref You did not take me for yourselves, but I took you for myself; and I gave you the work of going about and producing fruit which will be for ever; so that whatever request you make to the Father in my name he may give it to you.

14 Ref You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you.
15 Ref 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 Ref 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.
