John 17

1 These things, spake Jesus, and, lifting up his eyes unto heaven, said: —Father! The hour is come! Glorify thy Son, that, the Son, may glorify, thee, —

Jesus spoke these things, raising His eyes to Heaven and saying: “Father, the hour has come! Glorify Your Son, so that Your Son also may glorify You,

2 Even as thou gavest him authority over all flesh, that, as touching whatsoever thou hast given him, he might give unto them, life age-abiding. (aiōnios g166)

just as You gave Him authority over all humanity, so that He will give eternal life to all those whom You have given Him. (aiōnios g166)

3 And, this, is the age-abiding life, That they get to know thee, the only real God, and him whom thou didst send, Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)

Now eternal life is this: that they may know You, the only true God, and the One whom You sent—Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)

4 I, glorified thee on the earth, The work, finishing, which thou hast given me that I should do.

I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work that You have given me to do.

5 And, now, glorify me—thou, Father! with thyself, with the glory which I had, before the world’s existence, with thee.

So now, Father, You glorify me by Your side with the glory that I had along with You before the world existed!

6 I manifested thy name, unto the men whom thou gavest me out of the world: Thine, they were, and, to me, thou gavest them, and, thy word, have they kept:

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

7 Now, have they come to know, That, all things, as many as thou gavest me, are, from thee;

They now know that everything You have given to me is from You;

8 And, the declarations which thou gavest me, have I given them, and, they, received them, and came to know in truth, that, from thee, came I forth, —and they believed, that, thou, didst send me forth.

because I have given them the sayings which You have given to me; and they have received and known for sure that I came forth from You, and they have believed that You sent me.

9 I, concerning them, make request: not, concerning the world, do I make request, but concerning them whom thou hast given me, because, thine, they are, —

I am praying for them; I am not praying for the world but for those whom You have given me, because they are yours.

10 And, all my possessions, are, thine, and, thy possessions, mine, and I have been glorified in them.

Actually, all my things are Yours and Yours are mine, and I have been glorified in them.

11 And, no longer, am I in the world, and, they, are, in the world, —and, I, unto thee, am coming. Holy Father! Keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one, as, we.

Now I am no longer in the world, yet these are in the world, and I am coming to You. “Holy Father, keep them in Your name which You have given to me, so that they may be one just as we are.

12 When I was with them, I, kept them in thy name which thou hast given me, —And I kept watch, and, none from among them, went the destruction, —save the son of destruction, that, the Scripture, might be fulfilled.

While I was with them in the world I kept them in Your name. I protected those whom You gave me, and not one of them was lost except the son of perdition, so that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

13 But, now, unto thee, am I coming; and, these things, am I speaking in the world, that they may have my own joy fulfilled in themselves.

But now I am coming to You, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy made full in them.

14 I, have given them thy word, and, 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; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

15 I request not, that thou wouldst take them out of the world, but that thou wouldst keep them out of the evil:

I am not asking that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the malignant one.

16 Of the world, they are not, even as, I, am not of the world.

They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

17 Hallow them in the truth: Thine own word, is, truth:

Sanctify them by Your Truth; Your Word is Truth.

18 Even as thou didst send me forth into the world, I also, send them forth into the world;

Just as You sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.

19 And, on their behalf, I, hallow myself, that, they also, may have become hallowed in truth.

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

20 Not however concerning these alone, do I make request, but, concerning them also who believe, through their word, on me:

“I pray not only for these, but also for those who believe into me through their word;

21 That they, all, may be, one, —even as, thou, Father, in me, and, I, in thee, —that, they also, in us, may be; —that, the world, may believe that, thou, didst send me forth.

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

22 And, I, the glory which thou hast given to me, have given to them, that they may be one, even as, we, are, one.—

In fact, the glory that You gave to me I have given to them, so that they may be one just as We are one:

23 I, in them and, thou, in me; That they may have been perfected into, one, —That the world may get to know, that, thou, didst send me forth, and didst love them even as thou didst love, me.

I in them and You in me, so that they may be perfected into one; also so that the world may know that You sent me, and have loved them just as You have loved me.

24 Father! As touching that which thou hast given me, I desire—That, where, I, am, they also, may be, with me, that they may behold my own glory which thou hast given me, —because thou lovedst me, before the foundation of the world.

“Father, those whom You have given to me, I desire that they also may be with me where I am, so that they may observe my glory, which You have given me, because You loved me before the founding of the world.

25 Righteous Father! And so, the world, came not to know thee; but, I, came to know thee, and, these, came to know that, thou, didst send me forth:

Righteous Father! Indeed the world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent me.

26 And I made known unto them thy name, and will make known, —that, the love wherewith thou lovedst me, in them, may be, and, I, in them.

Yes, I have made Your name known to them and will make it known, so that the love with which You have loved me may be in them, and I in them.”
