< 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;
Jesus said these things, and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said, "Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may also glorify you;
2 according as thou gavest him authority over all flesh, that he should give everlasting life to all whom thou hast given him. (aiōnios )
even as you gave him authority over all flesh, he will give everlasting life to all whom you have 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 )
This is everlasting life, that they may know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Jesus Christ. (aiōnios )
4 I have glorified thee on the earth, having finished the work which thou gavest me to do;
I glorified you on the earth by accomplishing the work which you have given 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.
Now, Father, glorify me with your own self with the glory which I had with you before the world existed.
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 revealed your name to the people whom you have given me out of the world. They were yours, and you have given them to me. They have kept your word.
7 Now they know that all things whatever thou hast given me are from thee;
Now they have known that all things whatever you have given me are from you,
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.
for the words which you have given me I have given to them, and they received them, and knew for sure that I came forth from you, and they have believed that you sent me.
9 I pray for them; I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine;
I pray for them. I do not pray for the world, but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.
10 and all things that are mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
All things that are mine are yours, and yours are 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 am no more in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one, even 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, I kept them in your name which you have given me, and I guarded them, and not one of them perished, except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
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 I come to you, and I say these things in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves.
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 given them your word. The world hated 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 pray not that you would take them from the world, but that you would keep them from the evil one.
16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
They are not of the world even as I am not of the world.
17 Sanctify them in thy truth; thy word is truth.
Sanctify them in the truth. Your word is truth.
18 As thou didst send me into the world, I also sent them into the world.
As you sent me into the world, even so I have sent them into the world.
19 And in their behalf I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified in the truth.
For their sakes I sanctify myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.
20 Yet not for these alone do I pray, but also for those who believe in me through their word;
Not for these only do I pray, but for those also who believe in me through their word,
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 they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us; that the world may believe that you 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;
The glory which you have given me, I have given to them; that they may be one, even 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 you in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that you sent me, and loved them, even as you loved 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 desire that they also whom you have given me be with me where I am, that they may see my glory, which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation 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, the world hasn't known you, but I knew you; and these knew that you sent me.
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.
I made known to them your name, and will make it known; that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them."
