John 17 : 1 - 9
Chapter 17
| 1 | Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: "Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You,
|
| 2 | as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him.
|
| 3 | And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.
|
| 4 | I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do.
|
| 5 | And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.
|
| 6 | "I have manifested Your name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.
|
| 7 | Now they have known that all things which You have given Me are from You.
|
| 8 | For I have given to them the words which You have given Me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came forth from You; and they have believed that You sent Me.
|
| 9 | "I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours.
|
And Glory be to God forever.
