The Good News According to Yochanan, Chapter 17
{17:1} Yeshua said these things, and lifting up his eyes to heaven,
he said, "Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son
may also glorify you; {17:2} even as you gave him authority over all
flesh, he will give eternal life to all whom you have given him.
{17:3} This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true
God, and him whom you sent, Yeshua the Messiah. {17:4} I glorified you
on the earth. I have accomplished the work which you have given me to
do. {17:5} Now, Father, glorify me with your own self with the glory
which I had with you before the world existed. {17:6} I revealed your
name to the people whom you have given me out of the world. They were
yours, and you have given them to me. They have kept your word. {17:7}
Now they have known that all things whatever you have given me are
from you, {17:8} for the words which you have given me I have given to
them, and they received them, and knew for sure that I came forth from
you, and they have believed that you sent me. {17:9} I pray for them.
I don't pray for the world, but for those whom you have given me, for
they are yours. {17:10} All things that are mine are yours, and yours
are mine, and I am glorified in them. {17:11} I am no more in the
world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy
Father, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they
may be one, even as we are. {17:12} While I was with them in the
world, I kept them in your name. Those whom you have given me I have
kept. None of them is lost, except the son of destruction, that the
Scripture might be fulfilled. {17:13} But now I come to you, and I say
these things in the world, that they may have my joy made full in
themselves. {17:14} I have given them your word. The world hated them,
because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
{17:15} I pray not that you would take them from the world, but that
you would keep them from the evil one. {17:16} They are not of the
world even as I am not of the world. {17:17} Sanctify them in your
truth. Your word is truth. {17:18} As you sent me into the world, even
so I have sent them into the world. {17:19} For their sakes I sanctify
myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth. {17:20}
Not for these only do I pray, but for those also who believe in me
through their word, {17:21} that they may all be one; even as you,
Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us; that
the world may believe that you sent me. {17:22} The glory which you
have given me, I have given to them; that they may be one, even as we
are one; {17:23} I in them, and you in me, that they may be perfected
into one; that the world may know that you sent me, and loved them,
even as you loved me. {17:24} Father, I desire that they also whom you
have given me be with me where I am, that they may see my glory, which
you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the
world. {17:25} Righteous Father, the world hasn't known you, but I
knew you; and these knew that you sent me. {17:26} I made known to
them your name, and will make it known; that the love with which you
loved me may be in them, and I in them."
