1 W hen Jesus had said these things, He looked up to heaven and said, “Father, the time has come! Honor Your Son so Your Son may honor You.

These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:

2 Y ou have given Him power over all men. He is to give life that lasts forever to all You have given to Him.

As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.

3 T his is life that lasts forever. It is to know You, the only true God, and to know Jesus Christ Whom You have sent.

And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

4 I honored You on earth. I did the work You gave Me to do.

I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

5 N ow, Father, honor Me with the honor I had with You before the world was made. Jesus Prays for His Followers

And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

6 “ I have made Your name known to the people You have given Me from the world. They were Yours but You gave them to Me. They have obeyed Your Word.

I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.

7 N ow they know that everything You have given Me came from You.

Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.

8 I gave them the Word which You gave Me. They received it. They know I came from You and they believe You sent Me.

For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

9 “ I pray for them. I do not pray for the world. I pray for those You gave Me. They are Yours.

I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.

10 A ll that is Mine is Yours. All that is Yours is Mine. I have been honored through them.

And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.

11 I am no longer in the world. I am coming to You. But these are still in the world. Holy Father, keep those You have given to Me in the power of Your name. Then they will be one, even as We are One.

And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

12 W hile I have been with them in the world, I have kept them in the power of Your name. I have kept watch over those You gave Me. Not one of them has been lost except the one who is going to be destroyed, which is the son of death. The Holy Writings said it would happen.

While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

13 B ut now I come to You, Father. I say these things while I am in the world. In this way, My followers may have My joy in their hearts.

And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

14 “ I have given Your Word to My followers. The world hated them because they do not belong to the world, even as I do not belong to the world.

I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

15 I do not ask You to take them out of the world. I ask You to keep them from the devil.

I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

16 M y followers do not belong to the world just as I do not belong to the world.

They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

17 M ake them holy for Yourself by the truth. Your Word is truth.

Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

18 “ As You sent Me into the world so I have sent them into the world also.

As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

19 I set Myself apart to be holy for them. Then they may be made holy by the truth. Jesus Prays for All Christians

And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.

20 “ I do not pray for these followers only. I pray for those who will put their trust in Me through the teaching they have heard.

Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;

21 M ay they all be as one, Father, as You are in Me and I am in You. May they belong to Us. Then the world will believe that You sent Me.

That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

22 I gave them the honor You gave Me that they may be one as We are One.

And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:

23 I am in them and You are in Me so they may be one and be made perfect. Then the world may know that You sent Me and that You love them as You love Me.

I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

24 “ Father, I want My followers You gave Me to be with Me where I am. Then they may see My shining-greatness which You gave Me because You loved Me before the world was made.

Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

25 H oly Father, the world has not known You. I have known You. These have known You sent Me.

O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

26 I have made Your name known to them and will make it known. So then the love You have for Me may be in them and I may be in them.”

And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
