17These 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: 2 As thou
hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life
to as many as thou hast given him. 3 And
this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and
Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4 I have
glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest
me to do. 5 And
now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which
I had with thee before the world was. 6 I 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. 7 Now
they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. 8 For
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. 9 I pray
for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given
me; for they are thine. 10 And
all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. 11 And
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. 12 While
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.
13
And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they
might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. 14 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 pray
not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest
keep them from the evil. 16 They
are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 17 Sanctify
them through thy truth: thy word is truth. 18 As thou
hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. 19 And for
their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through
the truth. 20 Neither
pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through
their word; 21 That
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. 22 And the
glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even
as we are one: 23 I 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. 24 Father,
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. 26 And 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.
