John 15:19-25 If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, I having selected you from the world, the world hates you.

Living_Oracles⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁹ If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, I having selected you from the world, the world hates you. ²⁰ Remember what I said to you, The servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have observed my word, they will also observe yours. ²¹ But all this treatment they will give you on my account, because they know not him who sent me. ²² If I had not come, and spoken to them, they had not had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. ²³ He that hates me, hates my Father also. ²⁴ If I had not done among them such works as none other ever did, they had not had sin; but now they have seen them, and yet hated both me and my Father. ²⁵ Thus they verify that passage in their law, "They hated me without cause."
