Yohana 15:18-20
18
“Kama ulimwengu ukiwachukia ninyi, kumbukeni kwamba ulinichukia mimi kabla yenu.
19
Kama mngekuwa wa ulimwengu, ulimwengu ungeliwapenda kama vile unavyowapenda walio wake. Kwa sababu ninyi si wa ulimwengu, lakini mimi nimewachagua kutoka ulimwengu, hii ndiyo sababu ulimwengu unawachukia.
20
Kumbukeni lile neno nililowaambia, ‘Hakuna mtumishi aliye mkuu kuliko bwana wake.’ Kama wamenitesa mimi, nanyi pia watawatesa. Kama wamelishika neno langu, watalishika na neno lenu pia.
