John 15:1-4
1“1I amG1510 the trueG228 vineG288, and My FatherG3962 is the 2vinedresserG1092.
2EveryG3956 branchG2814 in Me that does not bearG5342 fruitG2590, He takesG142 awayG142; and everyG3956 branch that bearsG5342 fruitG2590, He 3prunesG2508 it soG2443 that it may bearG5342 moreG4183 fruitG2590.
34You are alreadyG2235 5cleanG2513 becauseG1223 of the wordG3056 whichG3739 I have spokenG2980 to you.
46AbideG3306 in Me, and I in you. As the branchG2814 cannotG1410G3756 bearG5342 fruitG2590 7of itselfG1438 unlessG1437G3361 it abidesG3306 in the vineG288, soG3779 neitherG3761 can you unlessG1437G3361 you abideG3306 in Me.
