John 15:2-16
2[As to] every branchG2814 in me not bearingG5342 fruitG2590, he takesG142 it awayG142; and [as to] every oneG3588 bearingG5342 fruitG2590, he purges it that it may bringG5342 forth moreG4183 fruitG2590.
3Ye areG1510 alreadyG2235 cleanG2513 by reason of the wordG3056 which I have spokenG2980 to you.
4AbideG3306 in me and I in you. As the branchG2814 cannot bearG5342 fruitG2590 of itself unless it abideG3306 in the vineG288, thusG3779 neither [can] ye unless ye abideG3306 in me.
5I amG1510 the vineG288, ye [areG1510] the branchesG2814. He that abidesG3306 in me and I in him, he bears muchG4183 fruitG2590; for without me ye can do nothing.
6Unless any oneG5100 abideG3306 in me he is castG906 out as the branchG2814, and is dried up; and they gatherG4863 them and castG906 them into the fireG4442, and they are burnedG2545.
7If ye abideG3306 in me, and my words abideG3306 in you, ye shall askG154 what ye will and it shall comeG1096 to passG1096 to you.
8In this is my FatherG3962 glorifiedG1392, that ye bearG5342 muchG4183 fruitG2590, and ye shall becomeG1096 disciplesG3101 of mine.
9As the FatherG3962 has lovedG25 me, I also have lovedG25 you: abideG3306 in my loveG26.
10If ye shall keepG5083 my commandmentsG1785, ye shall abideG3306 in my loveG26, as I have keptG5083 my Father's commandmentsG1785 and abideG3306 in his loveG26.
11I have spokenG2980 these thingsG3778 to you that my joyG5479 may beG1510 in you, and your joyG5479 beG1510 fullG4137.
12This isG1510 my commandmentG1785, that ye loveG25 oneG240 another, as I have lovedG25 you.
13No oneG3762 has greaterG3173 loveG26 than this, that oneG3762 should lay downG5087 his lifeG5590 for his friendsG5384.
14Ye areG1510 my friendsG5384 if ye practise whatever I commandG1781 you.
15I call you noG3756 longer bondmen, for the bondman does not know what his masterG2962 is doing; but I have called you friendsG5384, for all thingsG3956 which I have heardG191 of my FatherG3962 I have madeG4160 known to you.
16Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and have setG5087 you that ye should goG5217 and [that] ye should bearG5342 fruitG2590, and [that] your fruitG2590 should abideG3306, that whatsoever ye shall askG154 the FatherG3962 in my nameG3686 he may giveG1325 you.
