1These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his
eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the
hour
is come; glorify thy Son, that thy
Son also
may glorify thee: 2As thou hast given
him
power over all flesh, that he should
give
eternal life to as many as thou hast
given
him. 3And this is life eternal, that
they
might know thee the only true God,
and Jesus
Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4I have
glorified
thee on the earth: I have finished
the work
which thou gavest me to do. 5And now,
O Father,
glorify thou me with thine own self
with
the glory which I had with thee before
the
world was.
6I have manifested thy name unto the
men
which thou gavest me out of the world:
thine
they were, and thou gavest them me;
and they
have kept thy word. 7Now they have
known
that all things whatsoever thou hast
given
me are of thee. 8For I have given unto
them
the words which thou gavest me; and
they
have received them, and have known
surely
that I came out from thee, and they
have
believed that thou didst send me. 9I
pray
for them: I pray not for the world,
but for
them which thou hast given me; for
they are
thine. 10And all mine are thine, and
thine
are mine; and I am glorified in them.
11And now I am no more in the world,
but
these are in the world, and I come
to thee.
Holy Father, keep through thine own
name
those whom thou hast given me, that
they
may be one, as we are. 12While I was
with
them in the world, I kept them in thy
name:
those that thou gavest me I have kept,
and
none of them is lost, but the son of
perdition;
that the scripture might be fulfilled.
13And
now come I to thee; and these things
I speak
in the world, that they might have
my joy
fulfilled in themselves. 14I 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. 15I pray not
that
thou shouldest take them out of the
world,
but that thou shouldest keep them from
the
evil. 16They are not of the world,
even as
I am not of the world.
17Sanctify them through thy truth:
thy word
is truth. 18As thou hast sent me into
the
world, even so have I also sent them
into
the world. 19And for their sakes I
sanctify
myself, that they also might be sanctified
through the truth.
20Neither pray I for these alone, but
for
them also which shall believe on me
through
their word; 21That they all may be
one; as
thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee,
that
they also may be one in us: that the
world
may believe that thou hast sent me.
22And
the glory which thou gavest me I have
given
them; that they may be one, even as
we are
one: 23I in them, and thou in me, that
they
may be made perfect in one; and that
the
world may know that thou hast sent
me, and
hast loved them, as thou hast loved
me.
24Father, I will that they also, whom
thou
hast given me, 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. 25 O righteous
Father,
the world hath not known thee: but
I have
known thee, and these have known that
thou
hast sent me. 26And I have declared
unto
them thy name, and will declare it:
that
the love wherewith thou hast loved
me may
be in them, and I in them.
John 17:1-26
