1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit, he taketh away;
2 and every one that beareth fruit, he purifieth it, that it may bear more fruit.
3 Now ye are pure thro' the word which I have spoken to you.
4 Abide in me and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abide in the vine, so neither can ye, unless ye abide in me.
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches. He that abideth in me and I in him, he beareth much fruit; but, separate from me, ye can do nothing.
6 If any one abide not in me, he is cast out as a branch, and is withered: and they gather 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 whatsoever ye will, and it shall be done for you.
8 Hereby is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit: so shall ye be my disciples.
