Jesus spoke
these
things
; and alifting
up His eyes
to heaven
, He said
, "Father
, the hour
has come
; bglorify
Your Son
, that the Son
may glorify
You,
even as aYou gave
Him authority
over all
flesh
, that bto 1all
whom
You have given
Him, cHe may give
eternal
life
.
"This is eternal
life
, that they may know
You, athe only
true
God
, and Jesus
Christ
whom
bYou have sent
.
" aI glorified You on the earth
, 1 bhaving accomplished
the work
which
You have given
Me to do
.
"Now, Father
, aglorify
Me together
with Yourself
, with the glory
which
I had
bwith You before
the world
was.
" aI have manifested Your name
to the men
whom
bYou gave
Me out of the world
; they were cYours
and You gave
them to Me, and they have dkept
Your word
.
"Now they have come to know
that everything
You have given
Me is from You;
for athe words which
You gave
Me bI have given
to them; and they received
them and truly
understood
that cI came
forth
from You, and they believed
that dYou sent
Me.
" aI ask on their behalf
; bI do not ask
on behalf
of the world
, but of those whom
cYou have given
Me; for dthey are Yours
;
and aall things
that are Mine
are Yours
, and Yours
are Mine
; and I have been glorified
in them.
"I am no
longer
in the world
; and yet athey themselves
are in the world
, and bI come
to You. cHoly
Father
, keep
them in Your name
, the name dwhich
You have given
Me, that ethey may be one
even
as We are.
"While I was with them, I was keeping
them in Your name
awhich
You have given
Me; and I guarded
them and bnot one
of them perished
but cthe 1son
of perdition
, so
that the dScripture
would be fulfilled
.
"But now aI come
to You; and bthese
things
I speak
in the world
so
that they may have
My cjoy
made
full
in themselves
.
"I have given them Your word
; and athe world
has hated
them, because
bthey are not of the world
, even
as I am
not of the world
.
"I do not ask You to take
them out of the world
, but to keep
them 1from 2 athe evil
one.
" aThey are not of the world, even
as I am
not of the world
.
" aSanctify them in the truth
; Your word
is truth
.
"As aYou sent Me into the world
, bI also
have sent
them into the world
.
"For their sakes I asanctify
Myself
, that they themselves
also
may be bsanctified
cin truth
.
"I do not ask on behalf
of these
alone
, but for those
also
who believe
in Me through
their word
;
that they may all be one
; aeven
as You, Father
, are in Me and I in You, that they also
may be in Us, bso
that the world
may 1believe
that cYou sent
Me.
"The aglory which
You have given
Me I have given
to them, that they may be one
, just
as We are one
;
aI in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected 1in unity
, so
that the world
may 2know
that bYou sent
Me, and cloved
them, even
as You have loved
Me.
"Father, I desire
that athey also
, whom
You have given
Me, bbe with Me where
I am
, so
that they may see
My cglory
which
You have given
Me, for You loved
Me before
dthe foundation
of the world
.
"O arighteous Father
, 1although
bthe world
has not known
You, yet
I have known
You; and these
have known
that cYou sent
Me;
and aI have made Your name
known
to them, and will make
it known
, so
that bthe love
with which
You loved
Me may be in them, and I in them."
