17:1 When Jesus had finished saying these things, he looked upward¹ to heaven² and said, “Father, the time³ has come. Glorify your Son, so that your Son may glorify you— 17:2 just as you have given him authority over all humanity,⁴ so that he may give eternal life to everyone you have given him.⁵ 17:3 Now this⁶ is eternal life⁷—that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ,⁸ whom you sent. 17:4 I glorified you on earth by completing⁹ the work you gave me to do.¹⁰ 17:5 And now, Father, glorify me at your side¹¹ with the glory I had with you before the world was created.¹²

17:6 “I have revealed¹³ your name to the men¹⁴ you gave me out of the world. They belonged to you,¹⁵ and you gave them to me, and they have obeyed¹⁶ your word. 17:7 Now they understand¹⁷ that everything¹⁸ you have given me comes from you, 17:8 because I have given them the words you have given me. They¹⁹ accepted²⁰ them²¹ and really²² understand²³ that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me. 17:9 I am praying²⁴ on behalf of them. I am not praying²⁵ on behalf of the world, but on behalf of those you have given me, because they belong to you.²⁶ 17:10 Everything²⁷ I have belongs to you,²⁸ and everything you have belongs to me,²⁹ and I have been glorified by them.³⁰ 17:11 I³¹ am no longer in the world, but³² they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them safe³³ in your name³⁴ that you have given me, so that they may be one just as we are one.³⁵ 17:12 When I was with them I kept them safe³⁶ and watched over them³⁷ in your name³⁸ that you have given me. Not one³⁹ of them was lost except the one destined for destruction,⁴⁰ so that the scripture could be fulfilled.⁴¹ 17:13 But now I am coming to you, and I am saying these things in the world, so they may experience⁴² my joy completed⁴³ in themselves. 17:14 I have given them your word,⁴⁴ and the world has hated them, because they do not belong to the world⁴⁵ just as I do not belong to the world.⁴⁶ 17:15 I am not asking you to take them out of the world, but that you keep them safe⁴⁷ from the evil one.⁴⁸ 17:16 They do not belong to the world⁴⁹ just as I do not belong to the world.⁵⁰ 17:17 Set them apart⁵¹ in the truth; your word is truth. 17:18 Just as you sent me into the world, so I sent them into the world.⁵² 17:19 And I set myself apart⁵³ on their behalf,⁵⁴ so that they too may be truly set apart.⁵⁵

17:20 “I am not praying⁵⁶ only on their behalf, but also on behalf of those who believe⁵⁷ in me through their testimony,⁵⁸ 17:21 that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me and I am in you. I pray⁵⁹ that they may be in us, so that the world may believe that you sent me. 17:22 The glory⁶⁰ you gave to me I have given to them, that they may be one just as we are one— 17:23 I in them and you in me—that they may be completely one,⁶¹ so that the world may know that you sent me, and you have loved them just as you have loved me.

17:24 “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am,⁶² so that they may see my glory that you gave me because you loved me before the creation of the world⁶³. 17:25 Righteous Father, even if the world does not know you, I know you, and these men⁶⁴ know that you sent me. 17:26 I made known your name to them, and I will continue to make it known,⁶⁵ so that the love you have loved me with may be in them, and I may be in them.”
