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;

¹³ For all things I have strength, in Christ's strengthening me;

¹⁰ to your walking worthily of the Lord to all pleasing, in every good work being fruitful, and increasing to the knowledge of God,

² Grace to you, and peace be multiplied in the acknowledgement of God and of Jesus our Lord!

³ As all things to us His divine power (the things pertaining unto life and piety) hath given, through the acknowledgement of him who did call us through glory and worthiness,

⁴ through which to us the most great and precious promises have been given, that through these ye may become partakers of a divine nature, having escaped from the corruption in the world in desires.

⁵ And this same also -- all diligence having brought in besides, superadd in your faith the worthiness, and in the worthiness the knowledge,

⁶ and in the knowledge the temperance, and in the temperance the endurance, and in the endurance the piety,

⁷ and in the piety the brotherly kindness, and in the brotherly kindness the love;

⁸ for these things being to you and abounding, do make `you' neither inert nor unfruitful in regard to the acknowledging of our Lord Jesus Christ,

⁹ for he with whom these things are not present is blind, dim-sighted, having become forgetful of the cleansing of his old sins;

¹⁰ wherefore, the rather, brethren, be diligent to make stedfast your calling and choice, for these things doing, ye may never stumble,

¹¹ for so, richly shall be superadded to you the entrance into the age-during reign of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

¹² Wherefore, I will not be careless always to remind you concerning these things, though, having known them, and having been established in the present truth,

¹³ and I think right, so long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up in reminding `you',

¹⁴ having known that soon is the laying aside of my tabernacle, even as also our Lord Jesus Christ did shew to me,

¹⁵ and I will be diligent that also at every time ye have, after my outgoing, power to make to yourselves the remembrance of these things.

¹⁶ For, skilfully devised fables not having followed out, we did make known to you the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, but eye-witnesses having become of his majesty --

¹⁷ for having received from God the Father honour and glory, such a voice being borne to him by the excellent glory: `This is My Son -- the beloved, in whom I was well pleased;'

¹⁸ and this voice we -- we did hear, out of heaven borne, being with him in the holy mount.

³⁰ The fruit of the righteous `is' a tree of life, And whoso is taking souls `is' wise.

¹⁷ every good giving, and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the lights, with whom is no variation, or shadow of turning;

¹⁶ `Ye did not choose out me, but I chose out you, and did appoint you, that ye might go away, and might bear fruit, and your fruit might remain, that whatever ye may ask of the Father in my name, He may give you.

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

¹⁸ and increase ye in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; to him `is' the glory both now, and to the day of the age! Amen.

¹¹ being filled with the fruit of righteousness, that `is' through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

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;

¹² and there is not salvation in any other, for there is no other name under the heaven that hath been given among men, in which it behoveth us to be saved.'

¹⁹ Jesus therefore responded and said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything of himself, if he may not see the Father doing anything; for whatever things He may do, these also the Son in like manner doth;

¹⁷ not that I seek after the gift, but I seek after the fruit that is overflowing to your account;

⁶ And he spake this simile: `A certain one had a fig-tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit in it, and he did not find;

⁷ and he said unto the vine-dresser, Lo, three years I come seeking fruit in this fig-tree, and do not find, cut it off, why also the ground doth it render useless?

⁸ `And he answering saith to him, Sir, suffer it also this year, till that I may dig about it, and cast in dung;

⁹ and if indeed it may bear fruit --; and if not so, thereafter thou shalt cut it off.'

³³ if this one were not from God, he were not able to do anything.'

⁸ for we are not able to do anything against the truth, but for the truth;

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;

¹⁰ and may He who is supplying seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness,

⁴ to whom coming -- a living stone -- by men, indeed, having been disapproved of, but with God choice, precious,

⁶ which is present to you, as also in all the world, and is bearing fruit, as also in you, from the day in which ye heard, and knew the grace of God in truth;

²⁴ verily, verily, I say to you, if the grain of the wheat, having fallen to the earth, may not die, itself remaineth alone; and if it may die, it doth bear much fruit;

⁵ so we, the many, one body are in Christ, and members each one of one another.

⁸ The sin of My people they do eat, And unto their iniquity lift up their soul.

¹⁶ The cup of the blessing that we bless -- is it not the fellowship of the blood of the Christ? the bread that we break -- is it not the fellowship of the body of the Christ?

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

²⁷ and ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

¹² For, even as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, so also `is' the Christ,
