< ヨハネの福音書 17 >

1 第四款 イエズスの司祭的祈祷 イエズス斯く語り果てて、目を翹げ天を仰ぎて曰ひけるは、父よ時來れり、御子をして汝に光榮あらしめん為に、御子に光榮あらしめ給へ、
Jesus spoke these things, raising His eyes to Heaven and saying: “Father, the hour has come! Glorify Your Son, so that Your Son also may glorify You,
2 其は父より賜はりし人々に永遠の生命を與へしめんとて、之に萬民の上に権能を賜ひたればなり。 (aiōnios g166)
just as You gave Him authority over all humanity, so that He will give eternal life to all those whom You have given Him. (aiōnios g166)
3 抑永遠の生命は、唯一の眞の神にて在す汝と、其遣はし給へるイエズス、キリストとを知るに在り。 (aiōnios g166)
Now eternal life is this: that they may know You, the only true God, and the One whom You sent—Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
4 我は地上にて汝に光榮あらしめ、我に為さしめんとて賜ひし業を全うせり。
I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work that You have given me to do.
5 父よ、世界の存在に前だちて我が汝と共に有せし光榮を以て、今汝と共に我に光榮あらしめ給へ。
So now, Father, You glorify me by Your side with the glory that I had along with You before the world existed!
6 我は、此世より選みて我に賜ひし人々に御名を顕せり。彼等汝のものたりしに之を我に賜ひ、彼等は汝の言を守り、
“I have revealed Your name to the men whom You have given me out of the world. They were Yours and You gave them to me, and they have kept Your word.
7 我に賜ひし事悉く汝より出づることを今にして暁れり。
They now know that everything You have given to me is from You;
8 蓋我に賜ひし言を我彼等に授け、彼等は之を受けて、深く我が汝より出でたるを暁り、汝の我に遣はし給ひしことを信ぜり。
because I have given them the sayings which You have given to me; and they have received and known for sure that I came forth from You, and they have believed that You sent me.
9 我彼等の為に祈る。我が祈るは世の為に非ずして、我に賜ひたる人々の為なり、彼等は汝のものなればなり。
I am praying for them; I am not praying for the world but for those whom You have given me, because they are yours.
10 我ものは悉く汝のもの、汝のものは我ものにして、我彼等の中に光榮を得たり。
Actually, all my things are Yours and Yours are mine, and I have been glorified in them.
11 我最早世に居らず、彼等は世に居り、我は汝に至る。聖なる父よ、我に賜ひたる人々を御名を以て護り給へ、是我等の如く彼等も一ならん為なり。
Now I am no longer in the world, yet these are in the world, and I am coming to You. “Holy Father, keep them in Your name which You have given to me, so that they may be one just as we are.
12 我彼等と共なりし間、御名を以て彼等を護り居たりしが、我に賜ひたる人々を保ち、其中の一人も失せず、唯聖書の成就せん為に、亡の子の失せたるのみ。
While I was with them in the world I kept them in Your name. I protected those whom You gave me, and not one of them was lost except the son of perdition, so that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
13 今は我汝に至る、世に在りて斯く語るは、我喜を彼等の身に円満ならしめんが為なり。
But now I am coming to You, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy made full in them.
14 我は御言を彼等に授け、世は彼等を憎めり、是は我も世のものに非ざる如く、彼等は世のものに非ざればなり。
“I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
15 我が祈るは彼等を世より取去り給へとには非ず、彼等を護りて惡を逃れしめ給へとなり。
I am not asking that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the malignant one.
16 我も世のものに非ざる如く、彼等は世のものに非ず、
They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
17 願くは彼等を眞理の中に聖ならしめ給へ、御言は即ち眞理なり、
Sanctify them by Your Truth; Your Word is Truth.
18 我を世に遣はし給ひし如く、我も彼等を世に遣はせり、
Just as You sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
19 且彼等をも眞理の中に聖ならしめんとして、彼等の為に己を聖ならしむ。
And for their sakes I sanctify myself, so that they also may be sanctified in truth.
20 我が祈るは彼等の為のみならず、又彼等の言によりて我を信ずる人々の為にして、
“I pray not only for these, but also for those who believe into me through their word;
21 彼等が悉く一ならん為なり。父よ、是汝の我に在し我が汝に居るが如く、彼等も我等に居りて一ならん為にして、汝の我を遣はし給ひし事を世に信ぜしめんとてなり。
that they all may be one, just as You, Father, are in me and I in You; that in Us they also may be one, so that the world may believe that You sent me.
22 我に賜ひし光榮を我彼等に與へたり、是は我等の一なるが如く、彼等も一ならん為なり。
In fact, the glory that You gave to me I have given to them, so that they may be one just as We are one:
23 我彼等に居り汝我に在す、是は彼等が一に全うせられん為、又汝の我を遣はし給ひし事と、我を愛し給ひし如く彼等をも愛し給ひし事とを、世の暁らん為なり。
I in them and You in me, so that they may be perfected into one; also so that the world may know that You sent me, and have loved them just as You have loved me.
24 父よ、願くは我に賜ひし人々も、我が居る處に我と共ならん事を、是世界開闢以前より我を愛し給ひて我に賜ひたる我光榮を、彼等に見せん為なり。
“Father, those whom You have given to me, I desire that they also may be with me where I am, so that they may observe my glory, which You have given me, because You loved me before the founding of the world.
25 正しき父よ、世は汝を知らざれども我は汝を知り、彼等も亦汝の我を遣はし給ひしことを知れり。
Righteous Father! Indeed the world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent me.
26 我は御名を彼等に知らせたり、又知らせんとす、是我を愛し給ひたる愛の彼等に存して、我も彼等に居らん為なり、[と曰へり]。
Yes, I have made Your name known to them and will make it known, so that the love with which You have loved me may be in them, and I in them.”
