Jesus Prays for His Disciples

17Verse 1After saying these things, Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven and said,“Father, the hour has come; glorify yoʋr Son so that+yoʋr Son may+also glorify yoʋ,Verse 2just as yoʋ have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to everyone yoʋ have given him.Verse 3This is eternal life, that they may know yoʋ, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom yoʋ have sent.Verse 4I have glorified yoʋ on+earth. I have completed the work yoʋ have given me to do.Verse 5And now, Father, glorify me in yoʋr presence with the glory I had with yoʋ before the world existed.Verse 6“I have revealed yoʋr name to the people yoʋ have given me out of the world. They were yoʋrs; yoʋ gave them to me, and they have kept yoʋr word.Verse 7They now know that everything yoʋ have given me is from yoʋ.Verse 8For I have given them the words that yoʋ gave me, and they have received them and truly know that I came from yoʋ. They have also come to believe that yoʋ sent me.Verse 9I ask on their behalf; I do not ask on behalf of the world, but on behalf of those yoʋ have given me, for they are yoʋrs.Verse 10All who are mine are also yoʋrs, and all who are yoʋrs are also mine, and I have been glorified in them.Verse 11I will no longer remain in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to yoʋ. Holy Father,+keep them in yoʋr name, which yoʋ have given me, so that they may be one, just as we are one.Verse 12While I was with them+in the world, I kept them safe by the power of yoʋr+name. I have guarded those yoʋ have given me, and not one of them has perished except the son of destruction, so that the Scripture might be fulfilled.Verse 13But now I am coming to yoʋ, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy made full within them.Verse 14I have given them yoʋr word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.Verse 15I do not ask yoʋ to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil one.Verse 16They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.Verse 17Sanctify them by+yoʋr truth; yoʋr word is truth.Verse 18Just as yoʋ have sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.Verse 19For their sakes I sanctify myself, so that they too may be sanctified by the truth.Verse 20“I do not ask on behalf of them alone, but also on behalf of those who will believe in me through their word,Verse 21that they may all be one, just as yoʋ, Father, are in me, and I am in yoʋ, that they also may be+one in us, so that the world may believe that yoʋ sent me.Verse 22I have given them the glory that yoʋ gave me, so that they may be one, just as we are one,Verse 23I in them and yoʋ in me, so that they may be perfected into one,+and so that the world may know that yoʋ have sent me and have loved them just as yoʋ have loved me.Verse 24Father, I want those yoʋ have given me to be with me where I am, so that they may see my glory, which yoʋ gave me because yoʋ loved me before the foundation of the world.Verse 25Righteous Father, though the world does not know yoʋ, I know yoʋ, and these men know that yoʋ have sent me.Verse 26I have made yoʋr name known to them, and will continue to make it known, so that the love with which yoʋ have loved me may be in them, and so that I may be in them.”
