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, that to all whom you have given him, he will give eternal life.
{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 [1>]eretz[<1]. 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 know 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 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, and 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 perdition, 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 sent them into the world. {17:19} For their sakes I sanctify
myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth. {17:20}
Neither 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 didn't know 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."
