20 Remember my word that 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 kept my word, they will keep yours also.
21 But all these things they will do to you for my name's sake: because they know not him that sent me.
22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin: but now they have no excuse for their sin.

25 But that the word may be fulfilled which is written in their law: they hated me without cause.
