And de this houtos is eimi · ho eternal aiōnios life zōē, that hina they know ginōskō you sy, the ho only monos true alēthinos God theos, and kai Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos whom hos you sent apostellō. I egō glorified doxazō you sy on epi · ho earth , having completed teleioō the ho task ergon that hos you gave didōmi me egō to hina do poieō; and kai now nyn, Father patēr, glorify doxazō me egō at para your side seautou with the ho glory doxa that hos I had echō with para you sy before pro · ho the ho world kosmos began eimi.

I have made your sy name onoma known phaneroō · ho to the ho men anthrōpos whom hos you gave didōmi me egō out ek of the ho world kosmos. They were eimi yours sos, and you gave didōmi them autos to me kagō, and kai they have kept tēreō · ho your sy word logos. Now nyn they have come to know ginōskō that hoti everything pas that hosos you have given didōmi me egō is eimi from para you sy; for hoti the ho words rhēma that hos you gave didōmi to me egō I have given didōmi to them autos, and kai they autos have received lambanō them, and kai come to know ginōskō in truth alēthōs that hoti I came forth exerchomai from para you sy, and kai they have believed pisteuō that hoti you sy sent apostellō me egō. I egō am praying erōtaō for peri them autos; I am erōtaō not ou praying erōtaō for peri the ho world kosmos, but alla for peri those whom hos you have given didōmi to me egō, for hoti they are eimi yours sy; 10 and kai all pas · ho mine emos are eimi yours sos, and kai · ho yours sos are mine emos, and kai I have been glorified doxazō in en them autos. 11 · kai I am eimi no ouketi longer in en the ho world kosmos, but kai they autos are eimi in en the ho world kosmos, and kagō I am on my way erchomai to pros you sy. Holy hagios Father patēr, keep tēreō them autos in en · ho your sy name onoma, the name that hos you have given didōmi me egō, so hina that they may be eimi one heis, just kathōs as we hēmeis are one. 12 While hote I was eimi with meta them autos, I egō protected tēreō them autos in en · ho your sy name onoma, which hos you have given didōmi me egō. · kai I guarded phylassō them, and kai not oudeis one of ek them autos has been lost apollymi except ei mē the ho son hyios of ho destruction apōleia, that hina the ho scripture graphē might be fulfilled plēroō. 13 But de now nyn I am on my way erchomai to pros you sy, and kai I am saying laleō these houtos things while still in en the ho world kosmos that hina they may have echō · ho my emos joy chara · ho made complete plēroō in en themselves heautou. 14 I egō have given didōmi them autos · ho your sy word logos, and kai the ho world kosmos has hated miseō them autos because hoti they do not ou belong eimi to ek the ho world kosmos, just kathōs as I egō do not ou belong eimi to ek the ho world kosmos. 15 I am not ou asking erōtaō that hina you take airō them autos out ek of the ho world kosmos, but alla that hina you protect tēreō them autos from ek the ho evil ponēros one . 16 They do eimi not ou belong eimi to ek the ho world kosmos, just kathōs as I egō do not ou belong eimi to ek the ho world kosmos. 17 Consecrate hagiazō them autos by en the ho truth alētheia; · ho your sos word logos · ho is eimi truth alētheia. 18 As kathōs you sent apostellō me egō into eis the ho world kosmos, I kagō also have sent apostellō them autos into eis the ho world kosmos. 19 And kai for hyper their autos sake I egō consecrate hagiazō myself emautou, that hina they autos also kai may be eimi consecrated hagiazō by en the truth alētheia.

20 “It is not ou only monon for peri these houtos · de that I am interceding erōtaō, but alla also kai for peri those ho who will come to believe pisteuō in eis me egō through dia · ho their autos word logos, 21 that hina they may eimi all pas be eimi one heis, just kathōs as you sy, Father patēr, are in en me egō and kagō I am in en you sy, that hina they autos also kai may be eimi in en us hēmeis, so hina that the ho world kosmos may believe pisteuō that hoti you sy have sent apostellō me egō. 22 And kagō the ho glory doxa that hos you have given didōmi me egō I have given didōmi them autos, so hina that they may be eimi one heis just kathōs as we hēmeis are one heis, 23 I egō in en them autos and kai you sy in en me egō, that hina they may be eimi completely teleioō one heis, so hina that the ho world kosmos may know ginōskō that hoti you sy sent apostellō me egō, and kai that you love agapaō them autos even kathōs as you love agapaō me egō. 24 Father patēr, I desire thelō that hina those also kakeinos, whom hos you have given didōmi me egō, may be eimi with meta me egō where hopou I egō am eimi, so hina they may see theōreō · ho my emos glory doxa · ho that hos you have given didōmi me egō because hoti you loved agapaō me egō before pro the creation katabolē of the world kosmos. 25 Righteous dikaios Father patēr, although kai the ho world kosmos does ginōskō not ou know ginōskō you sy, I egō · de know ginōskō you sy, and kai these houtos men know ginōskō that hoti you sy sent apostellō me egō. 26 · kai I have made known gnōrizō to them autos · ho your sy name onoma, and kai I will continue to make it known gnōrizō, so hina that the ho love agapē with which hos you have loved agapaō me egō may be eimi in en them autos, and kagō I in en them autos.”

Jesus Prays to Be Glorified

17 After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven(A) and prayed:

“Father, the hour has come.(B) Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you.(C) For you granted him authority over all people(D) that he might give eternal life(E) to all those you have given him.(F) Now this is eternal life: that they know you,(G) the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.(H) I have brought you glory(I) on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do.(J) And now, Father, glorify me(K) in your presence with the glory I had with you(L) before the world began.(M)

Jesus Prays for His Disciples

“I have revealed you[a](N) to those whom you gave me(O) out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word. Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you. For I gave them the words you gave me(P) and they accepted them. They knew with certainty that I came from you,(Q) and they believed that you sent me.(R) I pray for them.(S) I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me,(T) for they are yours. 10 All I have is yours, and all you have is mine.(U) And glory has come to me through them. 11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world,(V) and I am coming to you.(W) Holy Father, protect them by the power of[b] your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one(X) as we are one.(Y) 12 While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by[c] that name you gave me. None has been lost(Z) except the one doomed to destruction(AA) so that Scripture would be fulfilled.(AB)

13 “I am coming to you now,(AC) but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full measure of my joy(AD) within them. 14 I have given them your word and the world has hated them,(AE) for they are not of the world any more than I am of the world.(AF) 15 My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.(AG) 16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of it.(AH) 17 Sanctify them by[d] the truth; your word is truth.(AI) 18 As you sent me into the world,(AJ) I have sent them into the world.(AK) 19 For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified.(AL)

Jesus Prays for All Believers

20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one,(AM) Father, just as you are in me and I am in you.(AN) May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.(AO) 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me,(AP) that they may be one as we are one(AQ) 23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me(AR) and have loved them(AS) even as you have loved me.

24 “Father, I want those you have given me(AT) to be with me where I am,(AU) and to see my glory,(AV) the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.(AW)

25 “Righteous Father, though the world does not know you,(AX) I know you, and they know that you have sent me.(AY) 26 I have made you[e] known to them,(AZ) and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them(BA) and that I myself may be in them.”
