< John 17 >
1 When Jesus had thus spoken, He raised his eyes towards Heaven and said, "Father, the hour has come. Glorify Thy Son that the Son may glorify Thee;

2 even as Thou hast given Him authority over all mankind, so that on all whom Thou hast given Him He may bestow the Life of the Ages. (aiōnios )

3 And in this consists the Life of the Ages--in knowing Thee the only true God and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent. (aiōnios )

4 I have glorified Thee on earth, having done perfectly the work which by Thine appointment has been mine to do.

5 And now, Father, do Thou glorify me in Thine own presence, with the glory that I had in Thy presence before the world existed.

6 "I have revealed Thy perfections to the men whom Thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and Thou gavest them to me, and they have obeyed Thy message.

8 For the truths which Thou didst teach me I have taught them. And they have received them, and have known for certain that I came out from Thy presence, and have believed that Thou didst send me.

11 I am now no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I am coming to Thee. "Holy Father, keep them true to Thy name--the name which Thou hast given me to bear--that they may be one, even as we are.

12 While I was with them, I kept them true to Thy name--the name Thou hast given me to bear--and I kept watch over them, and not one of them is lost but only he who is doomed to destruction--that the Scripture may be fulfilled.

14 I have given them Thy Message, and the world has hated them, because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world.

15 I do not ask that Thou wilt remove them out of the world, but that Thou wilt protect them from the Evil one.

17 Make them holy in the truth: Thy Message is truth.

18 Just as Thou didst send me into the world, I also have sent them;

21 that they may all be one, even as Thou art in me, O Father, and I am in Thee; that they also may be in us; that the world may believe that Thou didst send me.
