John 4:37

4:37 For in this instance the saying is true, ‘One sows and another reaps.’

John 17:4

17:4 I glorified you on earth by completing the work you gave me to do.

tn The recitative ὅτι (Joti) after ἀληθινός (alhqino") has not been translated.

tn Or “by finishing” or “by accomplishing.” Jesus now states that he has glorified the Father on earth by finishing (τελειώσας [teleiwsas] is best understood as an adverbial participle of means) the work which the Father had given him to do.

tn Grk “the work that you gave to me so that I may do it.”
