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. |
