< John 17 >
1 These things Jesus spoke, and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said: Father, the hour is come, glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee.
When Jesus had ended this discourse, he said, lifting up his eyes to heaven, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee;
2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he may give eternal life to all whom thou hast given him. (aiōnios )
as thou hast given him authority over all men, that he may bestow eternal life, on all those whom thou hast given him. (aiōnios )
3 Now this is eternal life: That they may know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. (aiōnios )
Now this is the life eternal, to know thee the only true God, and Jesus, the Messiah, thy Apostle. (aiōnios )
4 I have glorified thee on the earth; I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
I have glorified thee upon the earth; I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
5 And now glorify thou me, O Father, with thyself, with the glory which I had, before the world was, with thee.
And now, Father, glorify thou me in thy own presence, with that glory which I enjoyed with thee, before the world was.
6 I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou hast given me out of the world. Thine they were, and to me thou gavest them; and they have kept thy word.
I have made known thy name to the men whom those hast given me of the world. They were thine; and thou hast given them to me; and they have kept thy word.
7 Now they have known, that all things which thou hast given me, are from thee:
Whatsoever thou hast given me, they now know to have come from thee;
8 Because the words which thou gavest me, I have given to them; and they have received them, and have known in very deed that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
and that thou hast imparted to me the doctrine, which I have imparted to them. They have received it, knowing for certain, that I came forth from thee, and am commissioned by thee.
9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them whom thou hast given me: because they are thine:
It is for them that I pray. I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; because they are thine.
10 And all my things are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
And all mine are thine, and thine mine, and I am glorified in them.
11 And now I am not in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name whom thou has given me; that they may be one, as we also are.
I continue no longer in the world; but these continue in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, preserve them in thy name, whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.
12 While I was with them, I kept them in thy name. Those whom thou gavest me have I kept; and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition, that the scripture may be fulfilled.
While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name; those whom thou hast given me, I have preserved. None of them in lost, except the son of perdition, as the scripture foretold.
13 And now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy filled in themselves.
But now that I am coming to thee, I speak these things in the world, that their joy in me may be complete.
14 I have given them thy word, and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world; as I also am not of the world.
I have delivered thy word to them, and the world hates them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
15 I pray not that thou shouldst take them out of the world, but that thou shouldst keep them from evil.
I do not pray thee to remove them out of the world, but to preserve them from evil.
16 They are not of the world, as I also am not of the world.
Of the world they are not, as I am not of the world.
17 Sanctify them in truth. Thy word is truth.
Consecrate them by the truth; thy word is the truth.
18 As thou hast sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
As thou hast made me thy Apostle to the world, I have made them my Apostles to the world.
19 And for them do I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.
And I consecrate myself for them, that they may be consecrated through the truth.
20 And not for them only do I pray, but for them also who through their word shall believe in me;
Nor do I pray for these alone, but for those also who shall believe on me through their teaching;
21 That they all may be one, as thou, Father, in me, and I in thee; that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
that all may be one; that as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, they also may be one in us, that the world may believe that thou hast sent me;
22 And the glory which thou hast given me, I have given to them; that they may be one, as we also are one:
and that thou gavest me the glory, which I have given them; that they may be one, as we are one;
23 I in them, and thou in me; that they may be made perfect in one: and the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast also loved me.
I in them, and thou in me, that their union may be perfected; that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and that thou lovest them, as thou lovest me.
24 Father, I will that where I am, they also whom thou hast given me may be with me; that they may see my glory which thou hast given me, because thou hast loved me before the creation of the world.
Father, I would that where I shall be, those whom thou hast given me may be with me; that they may behold my glory, which thou gavest me, because thou lovedst me before the formation of the world.
25 Just Father, the world hath not known thee; but I have known thee: and these have known that thou hast sent me.
Righteous Father, though the world knows not thee, I know thee; and these know that I have thy commission.
26 And I have made known thy name to them, and will make it known; that the love wherewith thou hast loved me, may be in them, and I in them.
And to them I have communicated, and will communicate thy name: that I being in them, they may share in the love with which thou lovest me.
