1 When Jesus had spoken these things, He lifted up His eyes to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son may also glorify You.
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 For You granted Him authority over all people, so that He will give eternal life to all those You have given Him.
2 Como le has dado la potestad de toda carne, para que dé vida eterna á todos los que le diste.
3 Now this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent.
3 Esta empero es la vida eterna: que te conozcan el solo Dios verdadero, y á Jesucristo, al cual has enviado.
4 I have glorified You on earth. I have accomplished the work You gave Me to do.
4 Yo te he glorificado en la tierra: he acabado la obra que me diste que hiciese.
5 And now, Father, glorify Me in Your presence with the glory I had with You before the world existed.
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 have revealed Your name to those You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours; You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.
6 He manifestado tu nombre á los hombres que del mundo me diste: tuyos eran, y me los diste, y guardaron tu palabra.
7 Now they know that everything You have given Me comes from You.
7 Ahora han conocido que todas las cosas que me diste, son de ti;
8 For I have given them the words You gave Me, and they have received them. They knew with certainty that I came from You, and they believed that You 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 ask on their behalf. I do not ask on behalf of the world, but on behalf of those You have given Me; for they are Yours.
9 Yo ruego por ellos: no ruego por el mundo, sino por los que me diste; porque tuyos son:
10 All I have is Yours, and all You have is Mine; and in them I have been glorified.
10 Y todas mis cosas son tus cosas, y tus cosas son mis cosas: y he sido glorificado en ellas.
11 I will no longer be in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, protect them by Your name, the name You gave Me, so that they may be one as We are one.
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 world, I protected and preserved by Your name those You gave Me. Not one of them has been lost, except the son of destruction, so that the Scripture would 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 But now I am coming to You; and I am saying these things while I am in the world, so that they may have My joy fulfilled within them.
13 Mas ahora vengo á ti; y hablo esto en el mundo, para que tengan mi gozo cumplido en sí mismos.
14 I have given them Your word and the world has hated them. For they are not of the world, just 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 am not asking that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the evil one.
15 No ruego que los quites del mundo, sino que los guardes del mal.
16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
16 No son del mundo, como tampoco yo soy del mundo.
17 Sanctify them by Your truth; Your word is truth.
17 Santifícalos en tu verdad: tu palabra es verdad.
18 As You sent Me into the world, I have also sent them into the world.
18 Como tú me enviaste al mundo, también los he enviado al mundo.
19 For them I sanctify Myself, so that they too may be sanctified by the truth.
19 Y por ellos yo me santifico á mí mismo, para que también ellos sean santificados en verdad.
20 I am not asking on behalf of them alone, but also on behalf of those who will believe in Me through their message,
20 Mas no ruego solamente por éstos, sino también por los que han de creer en mí por la palabra de ellos.
21 that all of them may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I am in You. May they also be one in Us, so that the world may believe that You 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 I have given them the glory You gave Me, so 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 You in Me—that they may be perfectly united and that the world may know that You sent Me and have loved them just as You have loved 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 want those You have given Me to be with Me where I am, that they may see the glory You gave Me because You loved 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 Righteous Father, although the world has not known You, I know You, and they know that You 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 have made Your name known to them and will continue to make it known, so that the love You have for 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 …
