* These words spake Jesus , and lifted up his eyes to heaven , and said , Father , the hour is come ; glorify thy Son , that thy Son also may glorify thee : * As thou hast given him power over all flesh , that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him . * 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 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 gavest me ; and they have received 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 gavest me I have 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 hath hated them , because they are not of the world , even as I am not of the world . * I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world , but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil . * They are not of the world , even as I am not of the world . * Sanctify them through thy truth : thy word is truth . * As thou hast sent 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 it : that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them , and I in them .
