John 17
1
These spake Jeshu; and, uplifting his eyes to heaven, he said, My Father, the hour
hath come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee.
2
As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that to all whom thou hast given him
he should give the life which is eternal.
3
But this is the life which is eternal, that they know thee, who art the true Aloha,
and Him whom thou hast sent, Jeshu Meshicha.
4
I have glorified thee on the earth; the work which thou didst give me to do, I have
finished it.
5
And now glorify thou me, my Father, with thyself, in that glory which I had with thee
before the world was.
6
I have made known thy name unto the sons of man; those whom thou gavest me from the
world: thine they were, and to me didst thou give them; and they have kept thy word.
7
Now have they known that whatsoever thou hast given me is from thee.
8
And the words that thou gavest me I have given them, and they have received, and have
known assuredly that from thee I came forth, and have believed that thou didst send
me.
9
And for them I pray; not for the world I pray, but for them whom thou hast given me,
because they are thine.
10
And every thing of mine is thine, and thine is mine, and I am glorified in them.
11
Henceforth I am not in the world; but these are in the world, and I come to thee.
Holy Father, keep them through thy name, that (name) which thou hast given to me,
that they may be one as we are.
12
While I was with them in the world, I kept them through thy name: those whom thou
gavest me I have kept, and a man of them is not lost, but the son of perdition, that
the scripture may be fulfilled.
13
BUT now I come to thee, and these (things) I speak in the world, that they may have
my joy completed in themselves.
14
I have given them thy word, and the world hath hated them, because they are not of
the world, as I am not of the world.
15
Not that thou wouldest take them out of the world do I pray, but that thou wouldest
keep them from the evil;
16
for they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
17
Father, sanctify them through thy truth; for thy word is truth.
18
As me thou hast sent into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
19
And for their sakes I consecrate myself, that they also may be consecrated for the
truth.
20
Nor for these do I pray only, but also for those who shall believe in me through their
word;
21
that they all may be one, as thou, my Father, (art) in me, and I in thee, that they
also in us one may be; that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22
And the glory which thou hast given me have I given unto them, that they may be one
as we are one;
23
I in them, and thou in me, that they may be perfected in one; and that the world may
know that thou hast sent me, and that thou hast loved them, as me also thou hast loved.
24
Father, those whom thou hast given I will that where I am they also may be with me,
that they may see that glory of mine, which thou hast given to me; for thou lovedst
me before the foundations of the world.
25
My 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 made known unto them thy name, and I make it known that the love itself,
wherewith thou hast loved me, may be in them, and I may be in them.
