John 15:4-9

NSB(i) 4 »Remain with me, and I with you. The branch cannot bear fruit by itself. It must remain on the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain with me. 5 »I am the vine and you are the branches. He that remains with me, and I with him, the same bears much fruit. You can do nothing apart from me. 6 »If a man does not remain with me, he is removed as a branch, and withers. They gather them and throw them into the fire where they are burned (destroyed) (consumed). 7 »If you remain with me, and my words remain with you, ask whatever you will, and it will be done for you. 8 »My Father is glorified when you bear much fruit. You will be my disciples. 9 »I love you just as the Father has loved me. Remain in my love.
