^4 (A)Abide ^(B)in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. ⁵ I am the vine; ^(C)you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that ^(D)bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

⁷ If ^(A)you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ^(B)ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. ^8 (C)By this my Father is glorified, that you ^(D)bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. ^9 (E)As the Father has loved me, ^(F)so have I loved you. Abide in my love. ^10 (G)If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as ^(H)I have kept ^(I)my Father's commandments and abide in his love. ¹¹ These things I have spoken to you, ^(J)that my joy may be in you, and that ^(K)your joy may be full.
