et mea omnia tua sunt, et tua mea sunt : et clarificatus sum in eis.

 24 Hitherto you have not asked any thing in my name. Ask, and you shall receive; that your joy may be full.

in illo die in nomine meo petetis : et non dico vobis quia ego rogabo Patrem de vobis :
 27 For the Father himself loveth you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
