Chapter 17
|
1
|
These 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. |
