Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; so neither can ye, except ye abide in me.

Be in me at all times as I am in you. As the branch is not able to give fruit of itself, if it is not still on the vine, so you are not able to do so if you are not in me.

Μεινατε εν εμοι, και εγω εν υμιν. Καθως το κλημα δεν δυναται να φερη καρπον αφ' εαυτου, εαν δεν μεινη εν τη αμπελω, ουτως ουδε σεις, εαν δεν μεινητε εν εμοι.

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
