John 17:1-11
17 After Jesus finished saying this, he looked up to heaven and said, “Father, the
hour has come. Give glory to your Son, so that the Son may give glory to you. 2 For
you gave him authority over all people, so that he might give eternal life to all those
you gave him. 3 And eternal life means to know you, the only true God, and to
know Jesus Christ, whom you sent. 4 I have shown your glory on earth; I have
finished the work you gave me to do. 5 Father! Give me glory in your presence now,
the same glory I had with you before the world was made. 6 “I have made you
known to those you gave me out of the world. They belonged to you, and you gave
them to me. They have obeyed your word, 7 and now they know that everything
you gave me comes from you. 8 I gave them the message that you gave me, and
they received it; they know that it is true that I came from you, and they believe
that you sent me. 9 “I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those you
gave me, for they belong to you. 10 All I have is yours, and all you have is mine; and
my glory is shown through them. 11 And now I am coming to you; I am no longer in
the world, but they are in the world. Holy Father! Keep them safe by the power of
your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one just as you and I are
one.
