約翰福音 第 17 章

¹耶穌說了這話，就舉目望天，說：父阿，時候到了，願你榮耀你的兒子，使兒子也榮耀你；These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:

²正如你曾賜給他權柄管理凡有血氣的，叫他將永生賜給你所賜給他的人。As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.

³認識你─獨一的真神，並且認識你所差來的耶穌基督，這就是永生。And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

⁴我在地上已經榮耀你，你所託付我的事，我已成全了。I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

⁵父阿，現在求你使我同你享榮耀，就是未有世界以先，我同你所有的榮耀。And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

⁶你從世上賜給我的人，我已將你的名顯明與他們。他們本是你的，你將他們賜給我，他們也遵守了你的道。I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.

⁷如今他們知道，凡你所賜給我的，都是從你那裡來的；Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.

⁸因為你所賜給我的道，我已經賜給他們，他們也領受了，又確實知道，我是從你出來的，並且信你差了我來。For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

⁹我為他們祈求，不為世人祈求，卻為你所賜給我的人祈求，因他們本是你的。I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.

¹⁰凡是我的，都是你的；你的也是我的，並且我因他們得了榮耀。And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.

¹¹從今以後，我不在世上，他們卻在世上；我往你那裡去。聖父阿，求你因你所賜給我的名保守他們，叫他們合而為一像我們一樣。And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

¹²我與他們同在的時候，因你所賜給我的名保守了他們，我也護衛了他們；其中除了那滅亡之子，沒有一個滅亡的，好叫經上的話得應驗。While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

¹³現在我往你那裡去，我還在世上說這話，是叫他們心裡充滿我的喜樂。And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

¹⁴我已將你的道賜給他們。世界又恨他們；因為他們不屬世界，正如我不屬世界一樣。I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

¹⁵我不求你叫他們離開世界，只求你保守他們脫離那惡者（或作：脫離罪惡）。I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

¹⁶他們不屬世界，正如我不屬世界一樣。They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

¹⁷求你用真理使他們成聖；你的道就是真理。Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

¹⁸你怎樣差我到世上，我也照樣差他們到世上。As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

¹⁹我為他們的緣故，自己分別為聖，叫他們也因真理成聖。And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.

²⁰我不但為這些人祈求，也為那些因他們的話信我的人祈求，Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;

²¹使他們都合而為一。正如你父在我裡面，我在你裡面，使他們也在我們裡面，叫世人可以信你差了我來。That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

²²你所賜給我的榮耀，我已賜給他們，使他們合而為一，像我們合而為一。And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:

²³我在他們裡面，你在我裡面，使他們完完全全的合而為一，叫世人知道你差了我來，也知道你愛他們如同愛我一樣。I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

²⁴父阿，我在那裡，願你所賜給我的人也同我在那裡，叫他們看見你所賜給我的榮耀；因為創立世界以前，你已經愛我了。Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

²⁵公義的父阿，世人未曾認識你，我卻認識你；這些人也知道你差了我來。O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

²⁶我已將你的名指示他們，還要指示他們，使你所愛我的愛在他們裡面，我也在他們裡面。And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
