Bear (pherete). Present active subjunctive, “keep on bearing” much fruit.

And so shall ye be (kai genēsesthe). Rather “become.” Future middle indicative of ginomai, though B D L read genēsthe (after hina like pherēte). “Become” my disciples (learners) in the fullest sense of rich fruit-bearing according to the text in Joh 8:31.
