John 17

1 Yeshua [Salvation] said these things, and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said, “Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may also glorify you;

After Jesus said these things, He looked toward Heaven, and said: “Father, the time has come. Glorify Your Son, so that Your Son may also glorify You,

2 even as you gave him authority over all flesh, he will give eternal life to all whom you have given him. (aiōnios g166)

as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. (aiōnios g166)

3 This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Yeshua Messiah [Salvation Anointed one]. (aiōnios g166)

This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ who You have sent. (aiōnios g166)

4 I glorified you on the earth. I have accomplished the work which you have given me to do.

I have glorified You on the Earth. I have finished the work which You have given me to do.

5 Now, Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, glorify me with your own self with the glory which I had with you before the world existed.

Now, O Father, glorify me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world existed.

6 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.

“I have revealed Your name to the people You’ve given me out of the world. They were Yours. You gave them to me, and they have kept Your word.

7 Now they have known that all things whatever you have given me are from you,

Now they know that everything You’ve given me comes from You,

8 for the words which you have given me I have given to them, and they received them, and knew for sure that I came from you, and they have believed that you sent me.

for I have spoken to them the words You’ve given me. They have received Your words, and have come to know for certain that I came forth from You. They have believed that You sent me.

9 I pray for them. I don’t pray for the world, but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.

It is for them I pray. I’m not praying for the world, but for those who You’ve given me, because they belong to You.

10 All things that are mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them.

All of mine are Yours, and Yours are mine. I am glorified in them.

11 I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are.

Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world. I am coming to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those who You’ve given me, that they may be one just as we are one.

12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in your name. Those whom you have given me I have kept. None of them is lost, except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

I kept them in Your name while I was with them in the world. I have kept the people You gave me; and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, so that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

13 But now I come to you, and I say these things in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves.

Now I am coming to You, and I speak these things in the world, so that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

14 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.

I have given them Your word. The world has hated them because they don’t belong to the world, just as I don’t belong to the world.

15 I pray not that you would take them from the world, but that you would keep them from the evil one.

I don’t pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one.

16 They are not of the world even as I am not of the world.

They don’t belong to the world, just as I don’t belong to the world.

17 Sanctify them in your truth. Your word is truth.

Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.

18 As you sent me into the world, even so I have sent them into the world.

As You sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world.

19 For their sakes I sanctify myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.

I sanctify myself for their sakes, so that they may also be sanctified by the truth.

20 Not for these only do I pray, but for those also who believe in me through their word,

“I don’t pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in me through their message,

21 that they may all be one; even as you, Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that you sent me.

that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in me, and I in You. I pray that they also may be one in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent me.

22 The glory which you have given me, I have given to them; that they may be one, even as we are one;

I have given them the glory which You gave me, that they may be one just as we are one:

23 I in them, and you in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that you sent me, and have agapao ·totally devoted love· for them, even as you have agapao ·totally devoted love· for me.

I in them and You in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that You sent me and have sincerely loved them even as You have sincerely loved me.

24 Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, 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 have agapao ·totally devoted love· for me from before the foundation of the world.

Father, I desire that those You gave me may also be with me where I am, that they may see my glory which You’ve given me; because You sincerely loved me before the foundation of the world.

25 Righteous Abba Father, the world has not known you, but I knew you; and these knew that you sent me.

O righteous Father! The world hasn’t known You, but I have always known You, and these have come to know that You sent me.

26 I made known to them your name, and will make it known; that the agape ·unconditional love· with which you have agapao ·totally devoted love· to me may be in them, and I in them.”

I have declared to them Your name, and will continue to declare it, so that the sincere love with which You sincerely loved me may be in them, and I may be in them.”
