John 15
American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)
1 Ref I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
2 Ref Every branch in me that beareth not fruit, he taketh it away: and every `branch' that beareth fruit, he cleanseth it, that it may bear more fruit.
3 Ref Already ye are clean because of the word which I have spoken unto you.
4 Ref Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; so neither can ye, except ye abide in me.
5 Ref I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit: for apart from me ye can do nothing.
6 Ref If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 Ref If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatsoever ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
8 Ref Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and `so' shall ye be my disciples.
9 Ref Even as the Father hath loved me, I also have loved you: abide ye in my love.
