Augstā priestera lūgšana
1 To pateicis, Jēzus pacēla acis uz debesīm un sacīja: “Tēvs, tā stunda ir pienākusi, pagodini savu Dēlu, lai Dēls pagodinātu tevi, 2 lai, tāpat kā tu viņam devi varu pār visu miesu, viņš katram, ko tu viņam esi devis, dotu mūžīgo dzīvību. 3 Bet mūžīgā dzīvība ir tā, ka tie pazīst tevi – vienīgo, patieso Dievu un Jēzu Kristu, ko tu esi sūtījis. 4 Es tevi esmu pagodinājis virs zemes, novezdams galā darbu, ko tu man esi devis darīt. 5 Un tagad, Tēvs, pagodini mani pie sevis paša ar to godību, kas man bija pie tevis, pirms pasaule bija. 6 Tavu vārdu es esmu atklājis tiem cilvēkiem, kurus no pasaules tu man devi. Tie bija tavi, un tu devi tos man, un tavus vārdus tie ir turējuši. 7 Tagad viņi ir atzinuši, ka viss, ko tu esi devis man, ir no tevis, 8 ka esmu viņiem devis vārdus, kurus tu devi man. Un viņi ir saņēmuši tos un patiesi atzinuši, ka es esmu izgājis no tevis, un viņi tic, ka tu mani esi sūtījis. 9 Par viņiem es lūdzu, es nelūdzu par pasauli, bet par tiem, kurus tu man esi devis, jo viņi ir tavi. 10 Viss, kas ir mans, ir tavs, un tavs ir mans. Un es tiku pagodināts viņos. 11 Es vairs neesmu pasaulē, bet viņi ir pasaulē. Un es nāku pie tevis. Svētais Tēvs, sargā savā vārdā tos, ko tu man esi devis, lai viņi būtu viens, tāpat kā mēs. 12 Kad es ar viņiem biju pasaulē, es sargāju tavā vārdā tos, ko tu man biji devis, es tos pasargāju, un neviens no viņiem nav pazudis kā vien pazušanas dēls – lai piepildītos Raksti. 13 Bet tagad es eju pie tevis, un šo visu es runāju pasaulē, lai viņiem būtu mans prieks, kas viņos piepildās. 14 Es viņiem esmu devis tavus vārdus, bet pasaule viņus ir ienīdusi, jo viņi nav no pasaules, tāpat kā es neesmu no pasaules. 15 Es nelūdzu, lai tu viņus paņemtu no pasaules, bet lai tu viņus sargātu no ļaunā. 16 Viņi nav no pasaules, tāpat kā es neesmu no pasaules. 17 Dari viņus svētus patiesībā – tavi vārdi ir patiesība. 18 Kā tu mani pasaulē sūtīji, arī es viņus pasaulē sūtīju. 19 Tagad es ziedoju sevi viņu dēļ, lai arī viņi kļūtu svēti patiesībā. 20 Es nelūdzu par viņiem vien, bet arī par tiem, kas tic uz mani caur viņu vārdiem, 21 lai visi būtu viens, itin kā tu, Tēvs, manī un es tevī, tā lai arī viņi būtu mūsos; lai pasaule ticētu, ka tu mani esi sūtījis. 22 Un to godību, ko tu man esi devis, es esmu devis viņiem, lai viņi būtu viens, tāpat kā mēs esam viens. 23 Es viņos un tu manī, lai viņi ir pilnīgi vienībā, lai pasaule atzītu, ka tu esi sūtījis mani un esi viņus mīlējis, tāpat kā mani esi mīlējis. 24 Tēvs! Es gribu, lai tur, kur esmu es, ar mani būtu arī tie, ko tu man esi devis, lai tie redzētu manu godību, ko tu man esi devis, tādēļ ka jau pirms pasaules radīšanas tu mani esi mīlējis. 25 Taisnais Tēvs! Pasaule tevi nav pazinusi, bet es tevi esmu atzinis, un tie ir atzinuši, ka tu mani esi sūtījis. 26 Un es esmu darījis zināmu viņiem tavu vārdu un darīšu to zināmu, lai mīlestība, ar kuru tu mani esi mīlējis, būtu viņos un arī es būtu viņos.”
1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. 6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. 7 Now they have known 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 they have believed that thou didst send 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 I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are . 12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. 13 And now come I to thee; and these things I speak 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, even as I am not of the world. 15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. 16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. 18 As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. 19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth. 20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; 21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even 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 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. 25 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me. 26 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.
