⁵ I am the vine, you are the branches; the one who remains in Me, and I in him ^[a](A)bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. ⁶ If anyone does not remain in Me, he is ^(B)thrown away like a branch and dries up; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. ⁷ If you remain in Me, and My words remain in you, ^(C)ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

^10 (A)If you keep My commandments, you will remain in My love; just as ^(B)I have kept My Father’s commandments and remain in His love.

The Truth Will Set You Free

³¹ So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, “^(A)If you continue in My word, then you are truly My ^(B)disciples; ³² and ^(C)you will know the truth, and ^(D)the truth will set you free.” ³³ They answered Him, “^(E)We are Abraham’s descendants and have never been enslaved to anyone; how is it that You say, ‘You will become free’?”

³⁴ Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly I say to you, ^(A)everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.

⁵⁶ The one who eats My flesh and drinks My blood ^(A)remains in Me, and I in him.

⁶ the one who says that he ^(A)remains in Him ^(B)ought, himself also, walk just as He walked.

³⁹ And she had a sister called ^(A)Mary, who was also ^(B)seated at the Lord’s feet, and was listening to His word. ⁴⁰ But ^(C)Martha was distracted with ^[a]all her preparations; and she came up to Him and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to do the serving ^[b]by myself? Then tell her to help me.” ⁴¹ But the Lord answered and said to her, “^(D)Martha, Martha, you are ^(E)worried and distracted by many things; ^42 (F)but only one thing is necessary; for ^(G)Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.”

²⁶ and everyone who lives and believes in Me ^(A)will never die. Do you believe this?”

^20 [a]But you have an ^(A)anointing from ^(B)the Holy One, and ^(C)you all know.
