[John 17]

 

             ^17:1 Jesus spoke these things, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son, in-order-that your Son may also glorify you; ^17:2 just-as you gave him authority over all flesh, in-order-that to all whom you have given him, he will be giving everlasting life to them. ^17:3 But this is the everlasting life, in-order-that they may know you, the only true^* God, and Jesus the Christ, whom you sent. ^17:4 I glorified you upon the earth. I completed the work which you have given me, that^* I should do^*. ^17:5 And now, Father, glorify me with yourself in the glory which I was holding with you before the world came to be. ^17:6 I manifested your name to the men whom you have given me out-of the world. They were yours and you have given them to me, and they have kept your word. ^17:7 Now they have known that all things, as many things as you have given me, are from you, ^17:8 because the words which you have given me I have given to them, and they themselves received them and they truly knew that I came forth from you and they believed that you sent me.

             ^17:9 I am requesting concerning them. I am not requesting concerning the world, but concerning those whom you have given to me, because they are yours. ^17:10 And all my things are yours and yours are mine and I have been glorified in them. ^17:11 And I am no more in the world and yet these are in the world and I am coming to you.

{Joh 17:11b-17:26 The Lord’s Prayer; no parallel.}

             Holy Father, keep them in your name whom you have given me, in-order-that they may be one, just-as we are one. ^17:12 When I was with them in the world, I was keeping them in your name whom you have given me. I guarded them and not one out-of them perished, except the son of destruction; in-order-that the Scripture might be fulfilled. ^17:13 But now I am coming to you, and I speak these things in the world, in-order-that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves. ^17:14 I have given them your word, and the world hated them, because they are not from the world, just-as I am not from the world.

             ^17:15 I am not requesting that^* you should take them from the world, but in-order-that you should keep them from the evil one. ^17:16 They are not from the world just-as I am not from the world. ^17:17 Make them holy in the truth; your word is truth. ^17:18 Just-as you sent me forth into the world, I also sent them forth into the world. ^17:19 And I make myself holy on their behalf in-order-that they themselves may also be made holy in truth.

             ^17:20 I am not requesting concerning these only, but concerning the ones believing into me through their word; ^17:21 in-order-that they may all be one; just-as you, Father, are in me and I in you; in-order-that they themselves may also be one in us; in-order-that the world may believe that you sent me. ^17:22 And the glory which you have given me I have given to them; in-order-that they may be one, just-as we are one; ^17:23 I am in them and you are in me, in-order-that they might be completed into one and the world may know that you sent me and you loved^* them, just-as you loved^* me. ^17:24 Father, I wish that^* they, whom you have given me, may also be with me where I am in-order-that they may view my glory, which you gave me, because you loved^* me before the conception of the world. ^17:25 Righteous Father, the world did not know you, but I knew you, and these knew that you sent me; ^17:26 and I made known to them your name and will be making it known; in-order-that the love^* in which you loved^* me may be in them and I am in them.
