Latin text Jam non dicam vos servos, sed amicos meos, quia omnia cognovistis quae operatus sum in medio vestri. Alleluia. Accipite Spiritum Sanctum in vobis Paraclitum, ipse est quem Pater mittet vobis. Alleluia. Vos amici mei estis, si feceritis quae praecipio vobis. Alleluia.

English translation I will no longer call you servants, but my friends, because you have come to know everything I have done in your midst. Alleluia. Receive the Holy Spirit within you, the Advocate; he is the one whom the Father will send to you. Alleluia. You are my friends, if you do what I command you. Alleluia.
