1Jesus said these words. Then he looked up to heaven and said, "Father, the hour has come. Give glory to your Son, so that your Son may also give glory to you."
2"You have given him power over all people, so that he may give eternal life to all those you have given him."
3"And this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent."
4"I have given you glory on the earth. I have finished the work you gave me to do."
5"And now, Father, give me glory at your own side, the glory I had with you before the world existed."
6"I have made your name known to the men you gave me out of the world. They were yours, and you gave them to me. They have kept your word."
7"Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you."
8"I have given them the words you gave me. They received them, and they know for sure that I came from you. They have believed that you sent me."
9"I pray for them. I do not pray for the world, but for those you have given me, because they are yours."
10"All that is mine is yours, and all that is yours is mine. And I am glorified in them."
11"Now I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them safe by your own name, the name you have given me, so that they may be one, as we are one."
12"While I was with them in the world, I kept them safe in your name. I guarded those you gave me, and not one of them is lost, except the son of destruction, so that the scripture would come true."
13"Now I am coming to you. I say these things while I am in the world, so that my joy may be complete in them."
14"I have given them your word, and the world has hated them, because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world."
15"I do not pray that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil."
16"They do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world."
17"Make them holy by your truth. Your word is truth."
18"As you sent me into the world, so I have also sent them into the world."
19"For their sake I make myself holy, so that they also may be made holy by the truth."
20"I do not pray for these only. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their word,"
21"that they may all be one. Father, just as you are in me and I am in you, may they also be one in us, so that the world may believe that you sent me."
22"I have given them the glory you gave me, so that they may be one, just as we are one:"
23"I in them, and you in me, so that they may be made perfectly one. Then the world will know that you sent me, and that you have loved them as you have loved me."
24"Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, so that they may see my glory, the glory you gave me. For you loved me before the world was made."
25"Righteous Father, the world has not known you, but I have known you. And these men have known that you sent me."
26"I have made your name known to them, and I will make it known, so that the love you have loved me with may be in them, and I in them."
