Bible, King James Version
John
John.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.
