¹These things spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to the heaven, and said — `Father, the hour hath come, glorify Thy Son, that Thy Son also may glorify Thee,

¹ኢየሱስም ይህን ተናግሮ ወደ ሰማይ ዓይኖቹን አነሣና እንዲህ አለ። አባት ሆይ፥ ሰዓቱ ደርሶአል፤ ልጅህ ያከብርህ ዘንድ፥ በሥጋም ሁሉ ላይ ሥልጣን እንደ ሰጠኸው፥ ለሰጠኸው ሁሉ የዘላለምን ሕይወት ይሰጣቸው ዘንድ ልጅህን አክብረው።

²according as Thou didst give to him authority over all flesh, that — all that Thou hast given to him — he may give to them life age-during;

³እውነተኛ አምላክ ብቻ የሆንህ አንተን የላክኸውንም ኢየሱስ ክርስቶስን ያውቁ ዘንድ ይህች የዘላለም ሕይወት ናት።

³and this is the life age-during, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and him whom Thou didst send — Jesus Christ;

⁴እኔ ላደርገው የሰጠኸኝን ሥራ ፈጽሜ በምድር አከበርሁህ፤

⁴I did glorify Thee on the earth, the work I did finish that Thou hast given me, that I may do [it].

⁵አሁንም፥ አባት ሆይ፥ ዓለም ሳይፈጠር በአንተ ዘንድ በነበረኝ ክብር አንተ በራስህ ዘንድ አክብረኝ።

⁵`And now, glorify me, Thou Father, with Thyself, with the glory that I had before the world was, with Thee;

⁶ከዓለም ለሰጠኸኝ ሰዎች ስምህን ገለጥሁላቸው። የአንተ ነበሩ ለእኔም ሰጠሃቸው፤

⁶I did manifest Thy name to the men whom Thou hast given to me out of the world; Thine they were, and to me Thou hast given them, and Thy word they have kept;

⁷ቃልህንም ጠብቀዋል። የሰጠኸኝ ሁሉ ከአንተ እንደ ሆነ አሁን ያውቃሉ፤

⁷now they have known that all things, as many as Thou hast given to me, are from Thee,

⁸የሰጠኸኝን ቃል ሰጥቻቸዋለሁና፤ እነርሱም ተቀበሉት፥ ከአንተም ዘንድ እንደ ወጣሁ በእውነት አወቁ፥ አንተም እንደ ላክኸኝ አመኑ።

⁸because the sayings that Thou hast given to me, I have given to them, and they themselves received, and have known truly, that from Thee I came forth, and they did believe that Thou didst send me.

⁹እኔ ስለ እነዚህ እለምናለሁ፤ ስለ ዓለም አልለምንም ስለ ሰጠኸኝ እንጂ፤ የአንተ ናቸውና፤

⁹`I ask in regard to them; not in regard to the world do I ask, but in regard to those whom Thou hast given to me, because Thine they are,

¹⁰የእኔም የሆነ ሁሉ የአንተ ነው የአንተውም የእኔ ነው፤ እኔም ስለ እነርሱ ከብሬአለሁ።

¹⁰and all mine are Thine, and Thine [are] mine, and I have been glorified in them;

¹¹ከዚህም በኋላ በዓለም አይደለሁም፥ እነርሱም በዓለም ናቸው፥ እኔም ወደ አንተ እመጣለሁ። ቅዱስ አባት ሆይ፥ እነዚህን የሰጠኸኝን እንደ እኛ አንድ እንዲሆኑ በስምህ ጠብቃቸው።

¹¹and no more am I in the world, and these are in the world, and I come unto Thee. Holy Father, keep them in Thy name, whom Thou hast given to me, that they may be one as we;

¹²ከእነርሱ ጋር በዓለም ሳለሁ የሰጠኸኝን በስምህ እኔ እጠብቃቸው ነበር፤ ጠበቅኋቸውም መጽሐፉም እንዲፈጸም ከጥፋት ልጅ በቀር ከእነርሱ ማንም አልጠፋም።

¹²when I was with them in the world, I was keeping them in Thy name; those whom Thou hast given to me I did guard, and none of them was destroyed, except the son of the destruction, that the Writing may be fulfilled.

¹³አሁንም ወደ አንተ እመጣለሁ፤ በእነርሱም ዘንድ ደስታዬ የተፈጸመ እንዲሆንላቸው ይህን በዓለም እናገራለሁ።

¹³`And now unto Thee I come, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves;

¹⁴እኔ ቃልህን ሰጥቻቸዋለሁ፤ እኔም ከዓለም እንዳይደለሁ ከዓለም አይደሉምና ዓለም ጠላቸው።

¹⁴I have given to them Thy word, and the world did hate them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world;

¹⁵ከክፉ እንድትጠብቃቸው እንጂ ከዓለም እንድታወጣቸው አልለምንም።

¹⁵I do not ask that Thou mayest take them out of the world, but that Thou mayest keep them out of the evil.

¹⁶እኔ ከዓለም እንዳይደለሁ ከዓለም አይደሉም።

¹⁶`Of the world they are not, as I of the world am not;

¹⁷በእውነትህ ቀድሳቸው፤ ቃልህ እውነት ነው።

¹⁷sanctify them in Thy truth, Thy word is truth;

¹⁸ወደ ዓለም እንደ ላክኸኝ እንዲሁ እኔ ወደ ዓለም ላክኋቸው፤

¹⁸as Thou didst send me to the world, I also did send them to the world;

¹⁹እነርሱም ደግሞ በእውነት የተቀደሱ እንዲሆኑ እኔ ራሴን ስለ እነርሱ እቀድሳለሁ።

¹⁹and for them do I sanctify myself, that they also themselves may be sanctified in truth.

²⁰ሁሉም አንድ ይሆኑ ዘንድ፥ ከቃላቸው የተነሣ በእኔ ስለሚያምኑ ደግሞ እንጂ ስለ እነዚህ ብቻ አልለምንም፤ አንተ እንደ ላክኸኝ ዓለም ያምን ዘንድ፥ አንተ፥ አባት ሆይ፥ በእኔ እንዳለህ እኔም በአንተ፥ እነርሱ ደግሞ በእኛ አንድ ይሆኑ ዘንድ እለምናለሁ።

²⁰`And not in regard to these alone do I ask, but also in regard to those who shall be believing, through their word, in me;

²²እኛም አንድ እንደ ሆንን አንድ ይሆኑ ዘንድ፤ እኔም በእነርሱ አንተም በእኔ ስትሆን፥ በአንድ ፍጹማን እንዲሆኑ፥ የሰጠኸኝን ክብር እኔ ሰጥቻቸዋለሁ፤ እንዲሁም ዓለም አንተ እንደ ላክኸኝ በወደድኸኝም መጠን እነርሱን እንደ ወደድሃቸው ያውቃል።

²¹that they all may be one, as Thou Father [art] in me, and I in Thee; that they also in us may be one, that the world may believe that Thou didst send me.

²⁴አባት ሆይ፥ ዓለም ሳይፈጠር ስለ ወደድኸኝ የሰጠኸኝን ክብሬን እንዲያዩ እኔ ባለሁበት የሰጠኸኝ እነርሱ ደግሞ ከእኔ ጋር ይሆኑ ዘንድ እወዳለሁ።

²²`And I, the glory that thou hast given to me, have given to them, that they may be one as we are one;

²⁵ጻድቅ አባት ሆይ፥ ዓለም አላወቀህም፥ እኔ ግን አወቅሁህ እነዚህም አንተ እንደ ላክኸኝ አወቁ፤

²³I in them, and Thou in me, that they may be perfected into one, and that the world may know that Thou didst send me, and didst love them as Thou didst love me.

²⁶እኔንም የወደድህባት ፍቅር በእነርሱ እንድትሆን እኔም በእነርሱ፥ ስምህን አስታወቅኋቸው አስታውቃቸውማለሁ።

²⁴`Father, those whom Thou hast given to me, I will that where I am they also may be with me, that they may behold my glory that Thou didst give to me, because Thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.

²⁵`Righteous Father, also the world did not know Thee, and I knew Thee, and these have known that Thou didst send me,

²⁶and I made known to them Thy name, and will make known, that the love with which Thou lovedst me in them may be, and I in them.`
