蓋父自具生命、賜子亦自具生命。

因为父怎样在自己有生命，就赐给他儿子也照样在自己有生命，

因为父怎样自己里面有生命，也照样赐给他儿子自己里面有生命，

因为父怎样自己里面有生命，也照样赐给他儿子自己里面有生命，

因为正如父自己是生命的源头，祂也同样让子作生命的源头，

就如父是生命的源头，照样他也使子成为生命的源头，

原来，父怎样在自己里面有生命，也照样使子在自己里面有生命；

因為父怎樣在自己有生命，就賜給他兒子也照樣在自己有生命，

因為父怎樣自己裏面有生命，也照樣賜給他兒子自己裏面有生命，

因為父怎樣自己裏面有生命，也照樣賜給他兒子自己裏面有生命，

因為正如父自己是生命的源頭，祂也同樣讓子作生命的源頭，

就如父是生命的源頭，照樣他也使子成為生命的源頭，

因為父怎樣在自己裏面有生命，也給兒子怎樣在自己裏面有生命。

原來，父怎樣在自己裡面有生命，也照樣使子在自己裡面有生命；

蓋如父於己有生、其賜子於己有生亦然、

父自有生、賜子自有生亦如是、

父在己有生、其賜子亦如是在己有生、

For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself.

The Father has life in himself. He has allowed the Son also to have life in himself.

For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself.

The Father has life in himself, and he has granted that same life giving power to his Son.

For just as the Father has life in himself, so also he has granted to the Son to have life in himself.

For just as the Father has life in Himself, so He gave to the Son also to have life in Himself;

For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself,

For as the Father hath life in himself, even so gave he to the Son also to have life in himself:

For just as the Father has life in Himself, so also He has granted to the Son to have life in Himself.

For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;

For just as the Father has life in himself, thus he has granted the Son to have life in himself,

For as the Father has life in himself, even so he gave to the Son also to have life in himself.

斯道之內。蘊有生命。生命即光。生靈所稟。

嚮者父授子以統治元元之權、欲其以永生溥施父所授子之人也。人能識父為唯一真宰、及父所遣之耶穌基督、則永生即在斯中。

生而置信於予者、永不死。汝信之否？』

天主乃永生之源、寓於淵然不可窺測之光中、人所未曾睹亦不能睹也。但願光榮歸於天主、萬有統於一尊、永世靡暨、心焉祝之。

耶穌曰：『予即途也、真諦也、生命也。人欲諧父、舍予末由。

世人咸庇卵翼下。安居大宅飫肥鮮。主復飲以靈川水。在主身邊有活泉。

按經所載、始祖亞當賦有血氣之生命；而後來之亞當、則為賦予生命之神靈也。

伏願一切尊榮、永歸萬世之王、有生無死、超乎形象之唯一天主、心焉祝之。

婦曰：『先生既無汲水之具、而井又深、將何從而得活水乎？

食吾體而飲吾血者、存乎我而我亦存乎其中也。

瞬息之間、世將不復見予、爾獨見予。蓋予永生、爾亦因以有生焉。

又曰：「諸事圓滿矣。我乃眾妙之妙、眾徼之徼、無始之始、無終之終也。人有渴者、我當賜其從心所欲、飲於活水之泉。

未有天地前。吾主先已在。無始亦無終。獨立永不改。

節期之末日、亦即節期中主要之日也；耶穌立殿中、揚聲而言曰：『人有渴者、可就予以飲、有能置信於予者、必有「活水之泉、湧自其懷、沛若江河、」正如經之所言也。』

亦無需乎人手之供奉、且自以生命氣息及一切所需、普賜群生。

於是聖神及新婦曰：「望主速臨！」願聽眾咸曰：「望主速臨！」主曰：「渴者可來就我。從心所欲暢飲活泉之水。」

蓋爾已死；爾之生命、與基督同匿於天主懷中。基督乃吾人之真生命、一俟基督之顯、爾將與之同顯於光榮之中。

天神復示我以活水之川、澄澈如水晶、自天主及羔羊寶座源源而來。

蓋座前羔羊將親為之牧、導之引之、以至活水之源；而天主且將親拭其目中之淚也。

予剴切告爾、人守吾道、永不嘗死亡之味。』
