< John 17 >
1 When Jesus had thus spoken, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father! the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that the 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 according as thou gavest him authority over all flesh, that he should give everlasting 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 And this is the everlasting life, to know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou didst send. (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, having 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, Father! do thou glorify me with thyself, with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
And now, Father, glorify thou me in thy own presence, with that glory which I enjoyed with thee, before the world was.
6 I manifested thy name to the men whom thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and thou gavest them to me; 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 know that all things whatever thou hast given me are from thee;
Whatsoever thou hast given me, they now know to have come from thee;
8 for I have given to them the words which thou hast given me; and they received them, and knew surely that I came forth from thee, and 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 those whom thou hast given me; for 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 things that are mine 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 I am no longer in the world; and they are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father! keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we 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 which thou hast given me, and guarded them; and no one of them is lost except 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 But now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy made full in them.
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, even as I 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 do not pray thee to take them out of the world, but to 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, even as I am not of the world.
Of the world they are not, as I am not of the world.
17 Sanctify them in thy truth; thy word is truth.
Consecrate them by the truth; thy word is the truth.
18 As thou didst send me into the world, I also 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 in their behalf I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified in the truth.
And I consecrate myself for them, that they may be consecrated through the truth.
20 Yet not for these alone do I pray, but also for those who believe in me through their word;
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, art in me and I in thee, that they also may be in us, that the world may believe that thou didst send 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 them, that they may be one, even as we 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, that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast 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! as to that which thou hast given me, I desire that they also be with me where I am, that they may behold my glory which thou hast given me; for thou lovedst me before the foundation 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 Righteous Father! and yet the world knew thee not! but I knew thee, and these knew that thou didst send me.
Righteous Father, though the world knows not thee, I know thee; and these know that I have thy commission.
26 And I made known to them thy name, 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.
