< John 17 >

1 These thingis Jhesus spak, and whanne he hadde cast vp hise iyen in to heuene, he seide, Fadir, the our cometh, clarifie thi sone, that thi sone clarifie thee.
Yeshua said these things, then lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said, “Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may also glorify you;
2 As thou hast youun to hym power on ech fleisch, that al thing that thou hast youun to hym, he yyue to hem euerlastynge lijf. (aiōnios g166)
even as you gave him authority over all flesh, so he will give eternal life to all whom you have given him. (aiōnios g166)
3 And this is euerlastynge lijf, that thei knowe thee very God aloone, and whom thou hast sent, Jhesu Crist. (aiōnios g166)
This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Yeshua the Messiah. (aiōnios g166)
4 Y haue clarified thee on the erthe, Y haue endid the werk, that thou hast youun to me to do.
I glorified you on the earth. I have accomplished the work which you have given me to do.
5 And now, fadir, clarifie thou me at thi silf, with the clerenesse that Y hadde at thee, bifor the world was maad.
Now, Father, glorify me with your own self with the glory which I had with you before the world existed.
6 Y haue schewid thi name to tho men, whiche thou hast youun to me of the world; thei weren thine, and thou hast youun hem to me, and thei han kept thi word.
“I revealed your name to the people whom you have given me out of the world. They were yours, and you have given them to me. They have kept your word.
7 And now thei han knowun, that alle thingis that thou hast youun to me, ben of thee.
Now they have known that all things whatever you have given me are from you,
8 For the wordis that thou hast youun to me, Y yaf to hem; and thei han takun, and han knowun verili, that Y wente out fro thee; and thei bileueden, that thou sentist me.
for the words which you have given me I have given to them; and they received them, and knew for sure that I came from you. They have believed that you sent me.
9 Y preie for hem, Y preye not for the world, but for hem that thou hast youun to me, for thei ben thine.
I pray for them. I don’t pray for the world, but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.
10 And alle my thingis ben thine, and thi thingis ben myne; and Y am clarified in hem.
All things that are mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them.
11 And now Y am not in the world, and these ben in the world, and Y come to thee. Hooli fadir, kepe hem in thi name, whiche thou yauest to me, that thei ben oon, as we ben.
I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are.
12 While Y was with hem, Y kepte hem in thi name; thilke that thou yauest to me, Y kepte, and noon of hem perischide, but the sone of perdicioun, that the scripture be fulfillid.
While I was with them in the world, I kept them in your name. I have kept those whom you have given me. None of them is lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
13 But now Y come to thee, and Y speke these thingis in the world, that thei haue my ioie fulfillid in hem silf.
But now I come to you, and I say these things in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves.
14 Y yaf to hem thi word, and the world hadde hem in hate; for thei ben not of the world, as Y am not of the world.
I have given them your word. The world hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
15 Y preye not, that thou take hem awei fro the world, but that thou kepe hem fro yuel.
I pray not that you would take them from the world, but that you would keep them from the evil one.
16 They ben not of the world, as Y am not of the world.
They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
17 Halewe thou hem in treuth; thi word is treuthe.
Sanctify them in your truth. Your word is truth.
18 As thou sentist me in to the world, also Y sente hem `in to the world.
As you sent me into the world, even so I have sent them into the world.
19 And Y halewe my silf for hem, that also thei ben halewid in treuthe.
For their sakes I sanctify myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.
20 And Y preye not oneli for hem, but also for hem that schulden bileue in to me bi the word of hem;
“Not for these only do I pray, but for those also who will believe in me through their word,
21 that all ben oon, as thou, fadir, in me, and Y in thee, that also thei in vs be oon; that the world bileue, that thou hast sent me.
that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that you sent me.
22 And Y haue youun to hem the clerenesse, that thou hast youun to me, that thei ben oon,
The glory which you have given me, I have given to them, that they may be one, even as we are one,
23 as we ben oon; Y in hem, and thou in me, that thei be endid in to oon; and that the world knowe, that thou sentist me, and hast loued hem, as thou hast loued also me.
I in them, and you in me, that they may be perfected into one, that the world may know that you sent me and loved them, even as you loved me.
24 Fadir, thei whiche thou yauest to me, Y wole that where Y am, that thei be with me, that thei see my clerenesse, that thou hast youun to me; for thou louedist me bifor the makyng of the world.
Father, I desire that they also whom you have given me be with me where I am, that they may see my glory which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the world.
25 Fadir, riytfuli the world knew thee not, but Y knew thee, and these knewen, that thou sentist me.
Righteous Father, the world hasn’t known you, but I knew you; and these knew that you sent me.
26 And Y haue maad thi name knowun to hem, and schal make knowun; that the loue bi which thou `hast loued me, be in hem, and Y in hem.
I made known to them your name, and will make it known; that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them.”
