THESE WORDS SPAKE JESUS, AND LIFTED UP HIS EYES
TO HEAVEN, AND SAID,
FATHER, THE HOUR HAS COME;
GLORIFY THY SON,
THAT THY SON ALSO MAY GLORIFY THEE:
AND THIS IS LIFE ETERNAL, THAT THEY MIGHT
KNOW THEE THE ONLY TRUE GOD,
AND JESUS CHRIST,WHOM THOU HAST SENT.
I HAVE GLORIFIED THEE ON THE EARTH:
I HAVE FINISHED THE WORK WHICH THOU
GAVEST ME TO DO.
AND NOW, O FATHER, GLORIFY THOU ME WITH
THINE OWN SELF WITH THE GLORY WHICH
I HAD WITH THEE BEFORE THE WORLD WAS.


 
I HAVE MANIFESTED THY NAME UNTO THE MEN
WHICH THOU GAVEST ME OUT OF THE WORLD:
THINE THEY WERE, AND THOU GAVEST THEM TO ME;
AND THEY HAVE KEPT THY WORD.
NOW THEY HAVE KNOWN THAT ALL THINGS WHATSOEVER
THOU HAST GIVEN ME ARE OF THEE.
FOR I HAVE GIVEN UNTO THEM THE WORDS WHICH
THOU GASVEST ME; AND THEY HAVE RECIEVED THEM,
AND HAVE KNOWN SURELY THAT I CAME OUT
FROM THEE, AND THEY HAVE BELIEVED THAT
THOU DIDST SEND ME.
I PRAY FOR THEM:I PRAY NOT FOR THE WORLD,
BUT FOR THEM WHICH THOU HAST GIVEN ME;
FOR THEY ARE THINE. AND ALL MINE ARE THINE,
AND THINE ARE MINE; AND I AM GLORIFIED IN THEM.
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.
WHILE I WAS WITH THEM IN THE WORLD,
I KEPT THEM IN THY NAME:
THOSE THAT THOU HAST GAVEST ME I KEPT
AND NONE OF THEM IS LOST,
BUT THE SON OF PERDITION;
THAT THE SCRIPTURE MIGHT BE FULFILLED.
 
AND NOW COME I TO THEE;
AND THESE THINGS I SPEAK IN THE
WORLD, THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE MY JOY
FULFILLED IN THEMSELVES.
I HAVE GIVEN THEM THY WORD;
AND THE WORLD HATED THEM,
BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT OF THE WORLD,
EVEN AS I AM NOT OF THE WORLD.
I PRAY NOT THAST THOU SHOULDEST TAKE THEM OUT
OF THE WORLD, BUT THAT
THOU SHOULDEST KEEP THEM FROM EVIL.
THEY ARE NOT OF THE WORLD,
EVEN AS I AM NOT OF THE WORLD.
them
SANCTIFY THEM THROUGH THY TRUTH:
THY WORD IS TRUTH.
AS THOU HAST ME INTO THE WORLD,
EVEN SO HAVE I ALSO SENT THEM INTO THE WORLD.
AND FOR THEIR SAKES I SANCTIFY MYSELF,

THAT THEY ALSO MIGHT BE
SANCTIFIED THROUGH THE TRUTH.
NEITHER PRAY I FOR THESE ALONE,
BUT FOR THEM ALSO WHICH SHALL BELIEVE
ON ME THROUGH THEIR WORD;
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.
AND THE GLORY WHICH THOU GAVEST ME
I HAVE GIVEN THEM; THAT THEY MAY BE ONE,
EVEN AS WE ARE ONE:
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.
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.
O RIGHTEOUS FATHER,
THE WORLD HATH NOT KNOWN THEE:
BUT I HAVE KNOWN THEE,
AND THESE HAVE KNOWN
THAT THOU HAST SENT ME.


 
AND I HAVE DECLARED UNTO THEM THY NAME,
AND WILL DECLARE THAT THE LOVE WHEREWITH
THOU HAST LOVED ME MAY BE IN THEM, AND I IN THEM.
