Notes on this text (1)
- Original 16th-century spelling.
1 These things spake Iesus, and lift vp his eyes to heauen, and saide, Father, that houre is come: glorifie thy Sonne, that thy Sonne also may glorifie thee,
1 ESTAS cosas habló Jesús, y levantados los ojos al cielo, dijo: Padre, la hora es llegada; glorifica á tu Hijo, para que también tu Hijo te glorifique á ti;
2 As thou hast giuen him power ouer all flesh, that he shoulde giue eternall life to all them that thou hast giuen him.
2 Como le has dado la potestad de toda carne, para que dé vida eterna á todos los que le diste.
3 And this is life eternall, that they knowe thee to be the onely very God, and whom thou hast sent, Iesus Christ.
3 Esta empero es la vida eterna: que te conozcan el solo Dios verdadero, y á Jesucristo, al cual has enviado.
4 I haue glorified thee on the earth: I haue finished the worke which thou gauest me to doe.
4 Yo te he glorificado en la tierra: he acabado la obra que me diste que hiciese.
5 And nowe glorifie me, thou Father, with thine owne selfe, with the glorie which I had with thee before the world was.
5 Ahora pues, Padre, glorifícame tú cerca de ti mismo con aquella gloria que tuve cerca de ti antes que el mundo fuese.
6 I haue declared thy Name vnto the men which thou gauest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gauest them me, and they haue kept thy worde.
6 He manifestado tu nombre á los hombres que del mundo me diste: tuyos eran, y me los diste, y guardaron tu palabra.
7 Nowe they knowe that all things whatsoeuer thou hast giuen me, are of thee.
7 Ahora han conocido que todas las cosas que me diste, son de ti;
8 For I haue giuen vnto them the wordes which thou gauest me, and they haue receiued them, and haue knowen surely that I came out from thee, and haue beleeued that thou hast sent me.
8 Porque las palabras que me diste, les he dado; y ellos [las] recibieron, y han conocido verdaderamente que salí de ti, y han creído que tú me enviaste.
9 I pray for them: I pray not for the worlde, but for them which thou hast giuen me: for they are thine.
9 Yo ruego por ellos: no ruego por el mundo, sino por los que me diste; porque tuyos son:
10 And al mine are thine, and thine are mine, and I am glorified in them.
10 Y todas mis cosas son tus cosas, y tus cosas son mis cosas: y he sido glorificado en ellas.
11 And nowe am I no more in the world, but these are in the worlde, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keepe them in thy Name, euen them whome thou hast giuen mee, that they may bee one, as we are.
11 Y ya no estoy en el mundo; mas éstos están en el mundo, y yo á ti vengo. Padre santo, á los que me has dado, guárdalos por tu nombre, para que sean una cosa, como también nosotros.
12 While I was with them in the worlde, I kept them in thy Name: those that thou gauest me, haue I kept, and none of them is lost, but the childe of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
12 Cuando estaba con ellos en el mundo, yo los guardaba en tu nombre; á los que me diste, yo los guardé, y ninguno de ellos se perdió, sino el hijo de perdición; para que la Escritura se cumpliese.
13 And now come I to thee, and these things speake I in the worlde, that they might haue my ioy fulfilled in themselues.
13 Mas ahora vengo á ti; y hablo esto en el mundo, para que tengan mi gozo cumplido en sí mismos.
14 I haue giuen them thy word, and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world.
14 Yo les he dado tu palabra; y el mundo los aborreció, porque no son del mundo, como tampoco yo soy del mundo.
15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou keepe them from euill.
15 No ruego que los quites del mundo, sino que los guardes del mal.
16 They are not of the worlde, as I am not of the world.
16 No son del mundo, como tampoco yo soy del mundo.
17 Sanctifie them with thy trueth: thy word is trueth.
17 Santifícalos en tu verdad: tu palabra es verdad.
18 As thou diddest send me into the world, so haue I sent them into the world.
18 Como tú me enviaste al mundo, también los he enviado al mundo.
19 And for their sakes sanctifie I my selfe, that they also may bee sanctified through the trueth.
19 Y por ellos yo me santifico á mí mismo, para que también ellos sean santificados en verdad.
20 I praie not for these alone, but for them also which shall beleeue in mee, through their woorde,
20 Mas no ruego solamente por éstos, sino también por los que han de creer en mí por la palabra de ellos.
21 That they all may bee one, as thou, O Father, art in me, and I in thee: euen that they may be also one in vs, that the worlde may beleeue that thou hast sent me.
21 Para que todos sean una cosa; como tú, oh Padre, en mí, y yo en ti, que también ellos sean en nosotros una cosa: para que el mundo crea que tú me enviaste.
22 And the glory that thou gauest me, I haue giuen them, that they may be one, as we are one,
22 Y yo, la gloria que me diste les he dado; para que sean una cosa, como también nosotros somos una cosa.
23 I in them, and thou in mee, that they may be made perfect in one, and that the worlde may knowe that thou hast sent mee, and hast loued them, as thou hast loued me.
23 Yo en ellos, y tú en mí, para que sean consumadamente una cosa; que el mundo conozca que tú me enviaste, y que los has amado, como también á mí me has amado.
24 Father, I will that they which thou hast giuen me, be with me euen where I am, that they may beholde that my glorie, which thou hast giuen mee: for thou louedst me before the foundation of the world.
24 Padre, aquellos que me has dado, quiero que donde yo estoy, ellos estén también conmigo; para que vean mi gloria que me has dado: por cuanto me has amado desde antes de la constitución del mundo.
25 O righteous Father, the worlde also hath not knowen thee, but I haue knowen thee, and these haue knowen, that thou hast sent me.
25 Padre justo, el mundo no te ha conocido, mas yo te he conocido; y éstos han conocido que tú me enviaste;
26 And I haue declared vnto the thy Name, and will declare it, that the loue wherewith thou hast loued me, may be in them, and I in them.
26 Y yo les he manifestado tu nombre, y manifestaré[lo aún]; para que el amor con que me has amado, esté en ellos, y yo en ellos.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Before these words, which we are now, with the Lord's help, to make the subject of discourse, Jesus had said, "These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace;" which we are to consider as referring, not to the later words uttered by Him immediately before, but to all that He had addressed to them, …

"He that hath done and taught," it saith, "the same shall be called great in the Kingdom of heaven." And with much reason; for to show true wisdom in words, is easy, but the proof which is by works is the part of some noble and great one.

… alone antecedently to Adam, but also before all creation, the Word glorified His Father, remaining in Him; and was Himself glorified by the Father, as He did Himself declare, "Father, glorify Thou Me with the glory which I had with Thee before the world was." Nor did He stand in need of our service when He ordered us to follow …
This is life eternal; this Himself hath said, "But this is life eternal, that they may know Thee the Only True God, and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent." This is life eternal, that they may know, see, comprehend, acquaint themselves with what they had believed, may perceive that which they were not yet able to comprehend.

… men know that ye are my disciples," not "if ye cast out devils," but "if ye have love one to another." And again, "Hereby shall all men know that Thou hast sent me;" not "if these men raise the dead," but, "if they be one." For, as to miracles, they oftentimes, while they profited another, have injured him who had …
