P. 200

9 When they came to Jesus and saw that he was
      already  dead,  they  did not  break  his  legs,  but
      one  of  the  soldiers  with  a  spear  pierced  his
      side, and forthwith came there out blood and
      water. 10 And he that saw it bare record and his
      record  is  true:  and  he  knows  what  he  says  is
      true,  that  you  might  believe.  For  these  things

      fulfilled, a bone of him shall not be broken. And
      again another scripture said, They shall look on
      him whom they pierced.

      10 Jesus said: I am the true vine, and my Father
      is  the  husbandman.  Every  branch  in  me  that
      bears no fruit he takes away: and every branch

      that bears fruit, he purges it, that it may bring
      forth more fruit. Now you are clean through
      the word which I have spoken unto you.

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

      I am the vine; you are the branches: He

      that abides in me, and I in him, the same

      brings forth much fruit: for without me you
