John 15:14-16

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁴ You are my friends, if you do the things that I command you.

¹⁵ I will not now call you servants: for the servant knoweth not what his lord doth. But I have called you friends: because all things whatsoever I have heard of my Father, I have made known to you.

¹⁶ You have not chosen me: but I have chosen you; and have appointed you, that you should go, and should bring forth fruit; and your fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
