Gospel of John_Chapter 17

After Jesus had said these words, he lifted up his eyes and looked up to heaven, saying, Father, the time has come. May you glorify your son, so that he may also glorify you.

Just as you have given him authority over all flesh, that he may give eternal life to those whom you have given him.

Knowing your only true God and knowing Jesus Christ, whom you have sent, is eternal life.

I have glorified you on earth, and I have fulfilled what you entrusted me with.

Father, now I pray you to grant me glory with you, even with all the glory that I have with you before the world.

I have made your name known to the people you have given me from the world. They were originally yours, and you gave them to me, and they also kept your way.

Now they know that everything you give me comes from you.

Because of the way you have given me, I have given it to them. They also received it and indeed knew that I came out of you, and believed that you sent me.

I pray for them. I pray not for the world, but for the people you have given me, because they are yours.

Everything that belongs to me is yours, and yours is also mine. And I have been honored for them.

From now on, I am not in the world, but they are in the world. I will go to you. Holy Father, please keep them in the name you have given me, so that they may be one, just like us.

When I was with them, I kept them in the name you gave me, and I also guarded them. Apart from the Son of Destruction, there was no one who perished. The words of the scripture must be fulfilled.

Now I’m going to your place. I am still saying these words in this world to fill their hearts with my joy.

I have bestowed your way upon them. The world hates them again, because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world.

I do not ask you to make them leave the world, but to keep them safe from the evil one. (Or as freeing oneself from evil)

They don’t belong to the world, just as I don’t belong to the world.

Please sanctify them with truth. Your way is truth.

No matter how you send me to this world, I will still send them to this world.

I sanctify myself for their sake, that they may also be sanctified in truth.

I pray not only for these people, but also for those who believe in me because of their words.

Make them all one. Just as your father is in me, I am in you, so that they are also in us. Let the world believe that you sent me.

I have bestowed upon them the glory that you have bestowed upon me, that they may be one, just as we are one.

I am within them, you are within me, making them completely one. Let the world know that you have sent me, and that you love them as much as you love me.

Father, where am I? May the people you have given me also be with me, so that they may see the glory you have given me. Because before creating the world, you already loved me.

Righteous Father, the world has not known you, but I know you. These people also know that you sent me here.

I have instructed them by your name, and I will also instruct them, so that your love for me may be within them, and I may also be within them.
