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、
When Jesus had thus spoken, He raised his eyes towards Heaven and said, "Father, the hour has come. Glorify Thy Son that the Son may glorify Thee;
even as Thou hast given Him authority over all mankind, so that on all whom Thou hast given Him He may bestow the Life of the Ages. (aiōnios g166)
And in this consists the Life of the Ages--in knowing Thee the only true God and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent. (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 Thee on earth, having done perfectly the work which by Thine appointment has been mine 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。
And now, Father, do Thou glorify me in Thine own presence, with the glory that I had in Thy presence 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 Thy perfections to the men whom Thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and Thou gavest them to me, and they have obeyed Thy message.
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。
Now they know that whatever Thou hast given me is from Thee.
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。
For the truths which Thou didst teach me I have taught them. And they have received them, and have known for certain that I came out from Thy presence, and have believed that Thou didst send 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 making request for them: for the world I do not make any request, but for those whom Thou hast given me. Because they are Thine,
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。
and everything that is mine is Thine, and everything that is Thine is mine; and I am crowned with glory 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。
I am now no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I am coming to Thee. "Holy Father, keep them true to Thy name--the name which Thou hast given me to bear--that they may be one, even 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, I kept them true to Thy name--the name Thou hast given me to bear--and I kept watch over them, and not one of them is lost but only he who is doomed to destruction--that the Scripture may 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 Thee, and I speak these words while I am in the world, in order that they may have my gladness within them filling their hearts.
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 Thy Message, and the world has hated them, because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to 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 do not ask that Thou wilt remove them out of the world, but that Thou wilt protect them from the Evil 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 do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to 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、
Make them holy in the truth: Thy Message 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 Thou didst send me into the world, I also have sent them;
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 on their behalf I consecrate myself, in order that they may become perfectly consecrated 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、
"Nor is it for them alone that I make request. It is also for those who trust in me through their teaching;
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 may all be one, even as Thou art in me, O Father, and I am in Thee; that they also may be in us; that the world may believe that Thou didst send 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。
And the glory which Thou hast given me I have given them, 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 Thou in me; that they may stand perfected in one; that the world may come to understand that Thou didst send me and hast loved them with the same love as that with which Thou hast 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 Thou hast given me--I desire that where I am they also may be with me, that they may see the glory--my glory--my gift from Thee, which Thou hast given me because Thou didst love me before the creation 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。
And, righteous Father, though the world has failed to recognize Thee, I have known Thee, and these have perceived that Thou didst send 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]。
And I have made known Thy name to them and will make it known, that the love with which Thou hast loved me may be in them, and that I may be in them."
