5 I am the vine; ^ayou are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that ^bbears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in me, ^che is thrown away like a branch and withers; ^dand the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. 7 If ^eyou abide in me, and my words abide in you, ^fask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 ^gBy this my Father is glorified, that you ^hbear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples.
