1
"I am the real vine, and my Father is the gardener.
2
Every branch which is part of me but fails to bear fruit, he cuts off; and every branch that does bear fruit, he prunes, so that it may bear more fruit.
3
Right now, because of the word which I have spoken to you, you are pruned.
4
Stay united with me, as I will with you -- for just as the branch can't put forth fruit by itself apart from the vine, so you can't bear fruit apart from me.
5
"I am the vine and you are the branches. Those who stay united with me, and I with them, are the ones who bear much fruit; because apart from me you can't do a thing.
6
Unless a person remains united with me, he is thrown away like a branch and dries up. Such branches are gathered and thrown into the fire, where they are burned up.
7
"If you remain united with me, and my words with you, then ask whatever you want, and it will happen for you.
8
This is how my Father is glorified -- in your bearing much fruit; this is how you will prove to be my talmidim.
9
"Just as my Father has loved me, I too have loved you; so stay in my love.
10
If you keep my commands, you will stay in my love -- just as I have kept my Father's commands and stay in his love.
11
I have said this to you so that my joy may be in you, and your joy be complete.
