< John 17 >

1 These things spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to the heaven, and said — 'Father, the hour hath come, glorify Thy Son, that Thy Son also may glorify Thee,
THESE things spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee:
2 according as Thou didst give to him authority over all flesh, that — all that Thou hast given to him — he may give to them life age-during; (aiōnios g166)
even as thou hast given him authority over all flesh, that with regard to all those whom thou hast given him, he should give to them eternal life: (aiōnios g166)
3 and this is the life age-during, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and him whom Thou didst send — Jesus Christ; (aiōnios g166)
and this is eternal life, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou hast sent, Jesus, the Messiah. (aiōnios g166)
4 I did glorify Thee on the earth, the work I did finish that Thou hast given me, that I may do [it].
I have glorified thee upon earth: I have completed the work which thou gavest me to perform.
5 'And now, glorify me, Thou Father, with Thyself, with the glory that I had before the world was, with Thee;
And now, Father, do thou glorify me with thyself in the glory which I held with thee before the world was.
6 I did manifest Thy name to the men whom Thou hast given to me out of the world; Thine they were, and to me Thou hast given them, and Thy word they have kept;
I have made known thy name to the persons whom thou gavest me out of the world: for thee they had a being, and to me thou hast given them; and thy word have they kept.
7 now they have known that all things, as many as Thou hast given to me, are from Thee,
Now have they known, that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are from thee.
8 because the sayings that Thou hast given to me, I have given to them, and they themselves received, and have known truly, that from Thee I came forth, and they did believe that Thou didst send me.
For the declarations which thou gavest to me I have delivered to them; and they have received them, and have known assuredly that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou hast sent me.
9 'I ask in regard to them; not in regard to the world do I ask, but in regard to those whom Thou hast given to me, because Thine they are,
I entreat for them: I make no request for the world; but for those thou hast given me; for they are thine.
10 and all mine are Thine, and Thine [are] mine, and I have been glorified in them;
And all mine are thine, and thine mine; and I have been glorified in them.
11 and no more am I in the world, and these are in the world, and I come unto Thee. Holy Father, keep them in Thy name, whom Thou hast given to me, that they may be one as we;
And now no longer am I in this world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to thee. Holy Father! preserve them for thy name’s sake whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.
12 when I was with them in the world, I was keeping them in Thy name; those whom Thou hast given to me I did guard, and none of them was destroyed, except the son of the destruction, that the Writing may be fulfilled.
When I was with them in the world, I preserved them by thy name: those whom thou hast given me have I guarded, and not one of them is perished, except the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
13 'And now unto Thee I come, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves;
But now I am coming to thee; and I am speaking these things in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
14 I have given to them Thy word, and the world did hate them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world;
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.
15 I do not ask that Thou mayest take them out of the world, but that Thou mayest keep them out of the evil.
I entreat not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest preserve them from the wicked one.
16 'Of the world they are not, as I of the world am not;
They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
17 sanctify them in Thy truth, Thy word is truth;
Sanctify them by thy truth: thy word is truth.
18 as Thou didst send me to the world, I also did send them to the world;
As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I sent them into the world.
19 and for them do I sanctify myself, that they also themselves may be sanctified in truth.
And for them I devote myself, that they also might be sanctified by the truth.
20 'And not in regard to these alone do I ask, but also in regard to those who shall be believing, through their word, in me;
And not for them do I make request only, but also for those who shall 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 in us may be one, that the world may believe that Thou didst send me.
that all may be one; as thou, Father, in me, and I in thee, that these also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22 'And I, the glory that thou hast given to me, have given to them, that they may be one as we are one;
And I have given them the glory, which thou hast given me; that they may be one, even as we are one:
23 I in them, and Thou in me, that they may be perfected into one, and that the world may know that Thou didst send me, and didst love them as Thou didst love me.
I in them, and thou in me, that they may be perfected into one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
24 'Father, those whom Thou hast given to me, I will that where I am they also may be with me, that they may behold my glory that Thou didst give to me, because Thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.
Father, those whom thou hast given me, I will that where I am they may also be with me; that they may behold my glory, which thou gavest me: because thou hast loved me before the foundation of the world.
25 'Righteous Father, also the world did not know Thee, and I knew Thee, and these have known that Thou didst send me,
Righteous Father! though the world hath not known thee, yet I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.
26 and I made known to them Thy name, and will make known, that the love with which Thou lovedst me in them may be, and I in them.'
And I have 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.
