^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. ⁶ If anyone does not abide in me, ^(E)he is thrown away like a branch and withers; ^(F)and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned.

²⁶ And I will give you ^(A)a new heart, and ^(B)a new spirit I will put within you. ^(C)And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. ^27 (D)And I will put my Spirit within you, ^(E)and cause you to walk in my statutes and ^(F)be careful to obey my rules.^[a]
