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 1power 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. |
|
I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou
shouldest keep them from the 1evil.a

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. |
