约翰福音 17
Chinese Standard Bible (Simplified)
耶稣为自己祷告
17 耶稣说完了这些话,就举目望天,说:
“父啊,
时候到了!
愿你荣耀你的儿子,
好让儿子也荣耀你,
2 正如你赐给他权柄管辖所有的人[a],
好让他把永恒的生命给与一切你所赐给他的人。
3 认识你——独一的真神,
并认识你所差派的耶稣基督,
这就是永恒的生命。
4 我完成了你交给我该做的事,
因而在地上荣耀了你。
5 父啊,
现在愿你用那荣耀,与你自己一起荣耀我,
那荣耀是世界存在以前我与你一起就有的。
耶稣为门徒祷告
6 “你从世上所赐给我的人,
我已经把你的名向他们显明了。
他们是你的,
你把他们赐给了我,
他们也遵守了你的话语。
7 现在他们已经知道,
你所赐给我的一切都是从你而来的,
8 因为你所赐给我的话语,
我已经给了他们。
他们领受了,
也确实知道我是从你而来的,
并且相信是你差派了我。
9 我为他们祈求。
我不是为世人,
而是为你所赐给我的人祈求,
因为他们是你的。
10 一切属于我的都是你的,
属于你的也是我的,
并且我在他们里面得了荣耀。
11 今后我不在这世界上了,
而他们在这世界上,
我却要到你那里去。
圣父啊,
愿你奉你的名,
就是奉你赐给我的名保守他们,
使他们合而为一,
就像我们那样。
12 我[b]与他们在一起的时候,
我奉你的名,
就是奉你赐给我的名
保守了他们,也护卫了他们。
他们当中除了那灭亡[c]之子以外,
没有一个人失落。
这是为要应验经上的话。
13 但如今我就要到你那里去了。
我在世上说这些话,
是要让他们里面充满我的喜乐。
14 我把你的话语给了他们,
而世界恨他们,
因为他们不属于这世界,
就像我不属于这世界那样。
15 我不是求你带他们离开这世界,
而是求你保守他们脱离那恶者。
16 他们不属于这世界,
就像我不属于这世界那样。
17 愿你在真理中使他们分别为圣,
你的话语就是真理。
18 正如你差派我到世界上来,
我也差派他们到世界上去。
19 我为了他们,自己分别为圣,
好使他们也能在真理中被分别为圣。
耶稣为所有信徒祷告
20 “我不仅为他们祈求,
还为那些因他们的话而信我的人祈求,
21 愿他们都合而为一。
父啊,
正如你在我里面[d],我也在你里面,
愿他们也在我们里面,
好让世界相信是你差派了我。
22 你赐给我的荣耀,
我已经给了他们,
使他们合而为一,
就像我们是一体的。
23 我在他们里面,你在我里面,
愿他们能完全合一,
好让世界知道是你差派了我,
也知道你爱他们,
就像爱我那样。
24 父啊,
我在哪里,愿你所赐给我的人也能与我在哪里,
好让他们能看见你所赐给我的荣耀,
因为你在创世以前就爱我了。
25 公义的父啊,
虽然世界不认识你,我却认识你,
这些人也知道是你差派了我。
26 我将你的名向他们显明了,
并且还要显明。
这样,你爱我的爱就能在他们里面,
我也能在他们里面。”

1599 Geneva Bible
17 1 Christ prayeth that his glory together with his Father’s may be made manifest. 9 He Prayeth for his Apostles, 20 and for all believers.
1 These [a]things spake Jesus, and lift up his eyes to heaven, and said, [b]Father, that hour is come: glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee,
2 (A)As thou hast given him power over [c]all flesh, that he should give eternal life to all them that thou hast given him.
3 And this is life eternal, that they know thee to be the [d]only very God, and whom thou hast sent, Jesus Christ.
4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
5 And now glorify me, thou Father, with thine own self, with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
6 [e]I have declared thy Name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: [f]thine they were, and thou [g]gavest them me, and they have kept thy word.
7 (B)Now they know that all things whatsoever thou hast given me, are of thee.
8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me, and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and have believed that thou hast sent me.
9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me: for they are thine.
10 And all mine are thine, and thine are mine, and I am glorified in them.
11 And now am I no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy Name, even them whom thou hast given me, that they may be [h]one as we are.
12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy Name: those that thou gavest me, have I kept, and none of them is lost, but the child of perdition, that the (C)Scripture might be fulfilled.
13 And now come I to thee, and these things speak I in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
14 I have given them thy word, and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world.
15 [i]I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou keep them from evil.
16 They are not of the world, as I am not of the world.
17 [j]Sanctify them with thy truth: thy word is truth.
18 [k]As thou didst send me into the world, so have I sent them into the world.
19 And for their sakes sanctify I myself, that they also may be sanctified through the [l]truth.
20 [m]I pray not for these alone, but for them also which shall believe in me, through their word,
21 That they all may be one, as thou, O Father, art in me, and I in thee: even that they may be also one in us, that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22 And the glory that thou gavest me, I have given them, that they may be one, as we are one,
23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them as thou hast loved me.
24 (D)Father, I will that they which thou hast given me, be with me even where I am, that they may behold that my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
25 O righteous Father, the world also hath not known thee, but I have known thee, and these have known, that thou hast sent me.
26 [n]And I have declared unto them thy Name, and will declare it, that the love wherewith thou hast loved me, may be in them, and I in them.

- John 17:1 Jesus Christ the everlasting high Priest being ready straightway to offer up himself, doth by solemn prayers consecrate himself to God the Father as a sacrifice: and us together with himself. Therefore this prayer was from the beginning, is, and shall be to the end of the world, the foundation and ground of the Church of God.
- John 17:1 He first declareth, that as he came into the world to the end that the Father might show in him, being apprehended by faith, his glory in saving his elect, so he applied himself to that only: and therefore desireth of the Father, that he would bless the work which he hath finished.
- John 17:2 Over all men.
- John 17:3 He calleth the Father the only very God, to set him against all false gods, and not to shut out himself and the holy Ghost, For straightway he joineth the knowledge of the Father and the knowledge of himself together, and according to his accustomed manner, setteth forth the whole Godhead in the person of the father: So is the Father alone said to be King, immortal, wise, and dwelling in the light which no man can attain unto, invisible, Rom. 16:17; 1 Tim. 1:17.
- John 17:6 First of all he prayeth for those his disciples, by whom he would have the rest to be gathered together, commendeth them unto the Father, (having once rejected the whole company of the reprobate) because he received them of him into his custody, and for that they embracing his doctrine, shall have so many and so mighty enemies, that there is no way for them to be in safety, but by his help only.
- John 17:6 He showeth hereby that everlasting election and choice, which was hidden in the good will and pleasure of God, which is the groundwork of our salvation.
- John 17:6 He showeth how the everlasting and hidden purpose of God is declared in Christ, by whom we are justified and sanctified, if we lay hold of him by faith, that at length we may come to the glory of the election.
- John 17:11 He prayeth that his people may peaceably agree and be joined together in one, that as the Godhead is one, so they may be of one mind and one consent together.
- John 17:15 He showeth what manner of deliverance he meaneth: not that they should be in no danger, but that they being preserved from all, might prove by experience that the doctrine of salvation is true, which they received at his mouth to deliver to others.
- John 17:17 That is, make them holy: and that is said to be holy, which is dedicated and made proper to God only.
- John 17:18 He addeth moreover, that the Apostles have a vocation common with him, and therefore that they must be holden up by the selfsame virtue to give up themselves wholly to God, whereby he being first, did consecrate himself to the Father.
- John 17:19 The true and substantial sanctification of Christ, is set against the outward purifyings.
- John 17:20 Secondarily he offereth to God the Father, all his, that is, how many soever shall believe in him by the doctrine of the Apostles: that as he cleaveth unto the Father receiving from him all fullness, so they being joined with him, may receive life from him, and at length being together beloved in him, may also with him enjoy everlasting glory.
- John 17:26 He communicateth with his by little and little, the knowledge of the Father, which is most full in Christ the Mediator, that they may in him be beloved of the Father, with the selfsame love wherewith he loveth the Son.

New King James Version
Jesus Prays for Himself
17 Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, (A)the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, 2 (B)as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He [a]should give eternal life to as many (C)as You have given Him. 3 And (D)this is eternal life, that they may know You, (E)the only true God, and Jesus Christ (F)whom You have sent. 4 (G)I have glorified You on the earth. (H)I have finished the work (I)which You have given Me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify Me together [b]with Yourself, with the glory (J)which I had with You before the world was.
Jesus Prays for His Disciples
6 (K)“I have [c]manifested Your name to the men (L)whom You have given Me out of the world. (M)They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word. 7 Now they have known that all things which You have given Me are from You. 8 For I have given to them the words (N)which You have given Me; and they have received them, (O)and have known surely that I came forth from You; and they have believed that (P)You sent Me.
9 “I pray for them. (Q)I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours. 10 And all Mine are Yours, and (R)Yours are Mine, and I am glorified in them. 11 (S)Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, (T)keep[d] through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one (U)as We are. 12 While I was with them [e]in the world, (V)I kept them in [f]Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and (W)none of them is [g]lost (X)except the son of [h]perdition, (Y)that the Scripture might be fulfilled. 13 But now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves. 14 I have given them Your word; (Z)and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, (AA)just as I am not of the world. 15 I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but (AB)that You should keep them from the evil one. 16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 17 (AC)Sanctify[i] them by Your truth. (AD)Your word is truth. 18 (AE)As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. 19 And (AF)for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth.
Jesus Prays for All Believers
20 “I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who [j]will believe in Me through their word; 21 (AG)that they all may be one, as (AH)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 the (AI)glory which You gave Me I have given them, (AJ)that they may be one just as We are one: 23 I in them, and You in Me; (AK)that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.
24 (AL)“Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; (AM)for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. 25 O righteous Father! (AN)The world has not known You, but (AO)I have known You; and (AP)these have known that You sent Me. 26 (AQ)And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love (AR)with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.”
