1 “I am the vine, the true one, and my Father is the vinedresser. 2 Any branch in me which does not produce fruit He lifts up, and every one producing fruit He prunes, so that it may produce more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in me and I in you. Just as a branch is incapable of producing fruit by itself, except it remains in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in me. 5 “I am the vine, and you are the branches. The one who abides in me and I in him, he is the one who produces much fruit, because apart from me you are incapable of doing anything. 6 If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown out, like a branch, and dries up; well they gather such and throw them into the fire, and he is burned up. 7 If you abide in me and my sayings abide in you, you will ask whatever you desire and it will happen for you.
