John 15:18-20

Disciples’ Relation to the World

18 aIf the world hates you,
Or (imperative) know that
you know that it has hated Me before it hated you.
19If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but cI chose you out of the world, dbecause of this the world hates you. 20Remember the word that I said to you, ‘ eA slave is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, fthey will also persecute you; if they gkept My word, they will keep yours also.
