YLT Young's Literal Translation
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 These 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,
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 according 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;
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 the life age-during, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and him whom Thou didst send — Jesus Christ;
3 Esta empero es la vida eterna: que te conozcan el solo Dios verdadero, y á Jesucristo, al cual has enviado.
4 I did glorify Thee on the earth, the work I did finish that Thou hast given me, that I may do [it].
4 Yo te he glorificado en la tierra: he acabado la obra que me diste que hiciese.
5 'And now, glorify me, Thou Father, with Thyself, with the glory that I had before the world was, with Thee;
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 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;
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 have known that all things, as many as Thou hast given to me, are from Thee,
7 Ahora han conocido que todas las cosas que me diste, son de ti;
8 because 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.
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 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,
9 Yo ruego por ellos: no ruego por el mundo, sino por los que me diste; porque tuyos son:
10 and all mine are Thine, and Thine [are] mine, and I have been 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 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;
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 when 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.
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 unto Thee I come, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves;
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 to them Thy word, and the world did hate 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 do not ask that Thou mayest take them out of the world, but that Thou mayest keep them out of the evil.
15 No ruego que los quites del mundo, sino que los guardes del mal.
16 'Of the world they are not, as I of the world am not;
16 No son del mundo, como tampoco yo soy del mundo.
17 sanctify them in Thy truth, Thy word is truth;
17 Santifícalos en tu verdad: tu palabra es verdad.
18 as Thou didst send me to the world, I also did send them to the world;
18 Como tú me enviaste al mundo, también los he enviado al mundo.
19 and for them do I sanctify myself, that they also themselves may be sanctified in truth.
19 Y por ellos yo me santifico á mí mismo, para que también ellos sean santificados en verdad.
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;
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 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.
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 I, the glory that thou hast given to me, have given to 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 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.
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, 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.
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, also the world did not know Thee, and I knew Thee, and these have known that Thou didst send 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 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.'
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).

  1. Commentary 17:1 Augustine of Hippo, Tractates on the Gospel of John (Chapter XVII — 1)

    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, …

  2. Commentary 17:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of John (Homily LXXX)

    "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."

    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.
