< John 17 >

1 When Jesus had spoken these things, He lifted up His eyes to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son may glorify You.
穌講完了這些話,便舉目向天說:「父啊!時辰來到了,求你光榮你的子,好叫子也光榮你:
2 For You granted Him authority over all people, so that He may give eternal life to all those You have given Him. (aiōnios g166)
因為你賜給了他權柄掌管凡有血肉的人,是為叫他將永生賜給一切你所賜給他的人。 (aiōnios g166)
3 Now this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent. (aiōnios g166)
永生就是:認識你,唯一的真天主,和你所派遣來的耶穌基督。 (aiōnios g166)
4 I have glorified You on earth by accomplishing the work You gave Me to do.
我在地上,已光榮了你,完成了你所委託我所作的工作。
5 And now, Father, glorify Me in Your presence with the glory I had with You before the world existed.
父啊! 現在,在你面前光榮我罷!賜給我在世界未有以前,我在你前所有的光榮罷!」
6 I have revealed Your name to those You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours; You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.
「我已將你的名,顯示給那些你由世界中所賜給我的人。他們原屬於你,你把他們托給了我,他們也遵守了你的話。
7 Now they know that everything You have given Me comes from You.
現在他們已知道:凡你賜給我的,都是由你而來的,
8 For I have given them the words You gave Me, and they have received them. They knew with certainty that I came from You, and they believed that You sent Me.
因為你所授給我的話,我都傳給了他們;他們也接受了,也確實知道我是出於你,並且信是你派遣了我。
9 I ask on their behalf. I do not ask on behalf of the world, but on behalf of those You have given Me; for they are Yours.
我為他們祈求,不為世界祈求,只為你賜給我的人祈求,因為他們原是屬於你的。
10 All I have is Yours, and all You have is Mine; and in them I have been glorified.
我的一切都是你的,你的一切都是我的: 因他們已受到了光榮。
11 I will no longer be in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, protect them by Your name, the name You gave Me, so that they may be one as We are one.
從今以後,我不在世界上了,但他們仍在世界上,我卻到你那裏去。聖父啊! 求你因你的名,保全那些你所賜給我的人,使他們合而為一,正如我們一樣。
12 While I was with them, I protected and preserved them by Your name, the name You gave Me. Not one of them has been lost, except the son of destruction, so that the Scripture would be fulfilled.
當我和他們同在時,我因你的名,保全了你所賜給我的人,護衛了他們,其中除了那喪亡之子,沒有喪亡一個,這是應驗經上的話。
13 But now I am coming to You; and I am saying these things while I am in the world, so that they may have My joy fulfilled within them.
但如今我到你那裏去,我在世上講這話,是為叫他們的心充滿我的喜樂。
14 I have given them Your word and the world has hated them; for they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
我己將你的話授給了他們,世界卻憎恨他們,因為他們不屬於世界,就如我不屬於世界一樣。
15 I am not asking that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the evil one.
我不求你將世界上撤去,只求你保護他們脫免邪惡。
16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
他們不屬於世界,就如我不屬於世界一樣。
17 Sanctify them by the truth; Your word is truth.
求你以真理祝聖他們,你的話就是真理。
18 As You sent Me into the world, I have also sent them into the world.
就如你派遣我到世界上來,照樣我也派遣他們到世界上去。
19 For them I sanctify Myself, so that they too may be sanctified by the truth.
我為他們祝聖我自己,為叫他們也因真理而被祝聖。」「
20 I am not asking on behalf of them alone, but also on behalf of those who will believe in Me through their message,
我不但為他們祈求,而且也為那些因他們的話而信從我的人祈求。
21 that all of them may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I am in You. May they also be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.
願眾人都合而為一! 父啊! 願他們在我們內合而為一,就如內你在我內,我在你內,為叫世界相信是你派遣了我。
22 I have given them the glory You gave Me, so that they may be one as We are one—
我將你賜給我的光榮賜給了他們,為叫他們合而為一,就如我們原為一體一樣。
23 I in them and You in Me—that they may be perfectly united, so that the world may know that You sent Me and have loved them just as You have loved Me.
我在他們內,你在我內,使他們完全合而為一,為叫世界知道是你派遣了我,並且你愛了他們,如愛了我一樣。
24 Father, I want those You have given Me to be with Me where I am, that they may see the glory You gave Me because You loved Me before the foundation of the world.
父啊! 你所賜給我的人,我願我在那裏,他們也同我在一起,使他們享見你所賜給我的光榮,因為你在創世之前,就愛了我。
25 Righteous Father, although the world has not known You, I know You, and they know that You sent Me.
公義的父啊! 世界沒有認識你,我卻認識了你,這些人也知道是你派遣了我。
26 And I have made Your name known to them and will continue to make it known, so that the love You have for Me may be in them, and I in them.”
我已將你的名宣示給他們了,我還要宣示,好使你愛我的愛,在他們內,內我也在他們內。」
