    1I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.

    2Every branch in me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it, that it may produce more fruit.

    3Now you are clean through the word which I have spoken to you.

    4Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, no more can you, unless you abide in me.

    5I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit, for without me you can do nothing.
