⁴³ `For there is not a good tree making bad fruit, nor a bad tree making good fruit;

⁴⁴ for each tree from its own fruit is known, for not from thorns do they gather figs, nor from a bramble do they crop a grape.

⁴⁵ `The good man out of the good treasure of his heart doth bring forth that which `is' good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart doth bring forth that which `is' evil; for out of the abounding of the heart doth his mouth speak.

⁴⁶ `And why do ye call me, Lord, Lord, and do not what I say?

¹² Sow for yourselves in righteousness, Reap according to loving-kindness, Till for yourselves tillage of knowledge, To seek Jehovah, Till he come and shew righteousness to you.

⁴ remain in me, and I in you, as the branch is not able to bear fruit of itself, if it may not remain in the vine, so neither ye, if ye may not remain in me.

⁵ `I am the vine, ye the branches; he who is remaining in me, and I in him, this one doth bear much fruit, because apart from me ye are not able to do anything;

⁶ if any one may not remain in me, he was cast forth without as the branch, and was withered, and they gather them, and cast to fire, and they are burned;

¹⁰ Say ye to the righteous, that `it is' good, Because the fruit of their doings they eat.

²³ And not only `so', but also we ourselves, having the first-fruit of the Spirit, we also ourselves in ourselves do groan, adoption expecting -- the redemption of our body;

⁸ `In this was my Father glorified, that ye may bear much fruit, and ye shall become my disciples.

²² And the fruit of the Spirit is: Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,

²³ meekness, temperance: against such there is no law;

²⁴ and those who are Christ's, the flesh did crucify with the affections, and the desires;

⁸ bear, therefore, fruits worthy of the reformation,

⁴ So that, my brethren, ye also were made dead to the law through the body of the Christ, for your becoming another's, who out of the dead was raised up, that we might bear fruit to God;

⁵ for when we were in the flesh, the passions of the sins, that `are' through the law, were working in our members, to bear fruit to the death;

⁶ and now we have ceased from the law, that being dead in which we were held, so that we may serve in newness of spirit, and not in oldness of letter.

⁷ What, then, shall we say? the law `is' sin? let it not be! but the sin I did not know except through law, for also the covetousness I had not known if the law had not said:

⁸ for ye were once darkness, and now light in the Lord; as children of light walk ye,

⁹ for the fruit of the Spirit `is' in all goodness, and righteousness, and truth,

¹⁰ proving what is well-pleasing to the Lord,

¹¹ and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of the darkness and rather even convict,

¹⁷ and the wisdom from above, first, indeed, is pure, then peaceable, gentle, easily entreated, full of kindness and good fruits, uncontentious, and unhypocritical: --

¹⁸ and the fruit of the righteousness in peace is sown to those making peace.

²¹ what fruit, therefore, were ye having then, in the things of which ye are now ashamed? for the end of those `is' death.

²² And now, having been freed from the sin, and having become servants to God, ye have your fruit -- to sanctification, and the end life age-during;

²³ for the wages of the sin `is' death, and the gift of God `is' life age-during in Christ Jesus our Lord.

¹⁹ Better `is' my fruit than gold, even fine gold, And mine increase than choice silver.
