1 I am the true vine,
and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every
branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every
branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth
more fruit. 3 Now ye are clean
through the word which I have spoken unto you.
|
4 Abide in me, and I
in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it
abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I
am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in
him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do
nothing.
|
6 If a man abide not
in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men
gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are
burned. 7 If ye abide in me, and
my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be
done unto you. 8 Herein is my
Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my
disciples.
