Original text and translations
Hoc est praeceptum meum ut diligatis invicem sicut dilexi vos.
Maiorem charitatem nemo habet ut animam suam ponat quis pro amicis suis.
Vos amici mei estis si feceritis quae praecipio vobis. (John 15: 12-14)
This is my commandment, that you love one another, as I have loved you.
Greater love than this no man hath, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
You are my friends, if you do the things that I command you. (Douay-Rheims Bible translation)
