5 Yes, I am the vine, you are the branches.
Those who remain in me, and I in them will
produce much fruit. For apart from me you
can do nothing. 6 Anyone who does not
remain in me is thrown away like a useless
branch and wither. Such branches are
gathered into the fire to be burned.

remain in you, you may ask anything
you want, and it will be granted. 8 When
