John 15:1-8

Sawyer(i) 1 (17:1) I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that bears not fruit he takes away; and every branch that bears fruit he trims, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are now pure, by means of the word which I have spoken to you; 4 continue in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it continues in the vine, so you cannot, unless you continue in me. 5 I am the vine, you are the branches. He that continues in me and I in him, this man bears much fruit; for separated from me, you can do nothing. 6 If any one continues not in me he is cast without as a branch, and is withered; and they collect them and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you continue in me, and my words continue in you, you shall ask whatever you will, and it shall be [given] you. 8 By this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit and be my disciples.
