John 17 :: American Standard Version (ASV)

The High Priestly Prayer

Jhn 17:1These things spake Jesus; and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that the Son may glorify thee:

Jhn 17:2

Jhn 17:2even as thou gavest him authority over all flesh, that to all whom thou hast given him, he should give eternal life.

Jhn 17:3

Jhn 17:3And this is life eternal, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou didst send, even Jesus Christ.

Jhn 17:4

Jhn 17:4I glorified thee on the earth, having accomplished the work which thou hast given me to do.

Jhn 17:5

Jhn 17:5And now, Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

Jhn 17:6

Jhn 17:6I manifested thy name unto the men whom thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them to me; and they have kept thy word.

Jhn 17:7

Jhn 17:7Now they know that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are from thee:

Jhn 17:8

Jhn 17:8for the words which thou gavest me I have given unto them; and they received them, and knew of a truth that I came forth from thee, and they believed that thou didst send me.

Jhn 17:9

Jhn 17:9I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine:

Jhn 17:10

Jhn 17:10and all things that are mine are thine, and thine are mine: and I am glorified in them.

Jhn 17:11

Jhn 17:11And I am no more in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are.

Jhn 17:12

Jhn 17:12While I was with them, I kept them in thy name which thou hast given me: and I guarded them, and not one of them perished, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

The Disciples in the World

Jhn 17:13

Jhn 17:13But now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves.

Jhn 17:14

Jhn 17:14I have given them thy word; and the world hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

Jhn 17:15

Jhn 17:15I pray not that thou shouldest take them from the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil one.

Jhn 17:16

Jhn 17:16They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

Jhn 17:17

Jhn 17:17Sanctify them in the truth: thy word is truth.

Jhn 17:18

Jhn 17:18As thou didst send me into the world, even so sent I them into the world.

Jhn 17:19

Jhn 17:19And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.

Jhn 17:20

Jhn 17:20Neither for these only do I pray, but for them also that believe on me through their word;

Jhn 17:21

Jhn 17:21that they may all be one; even as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us: that the world may believe that thou didst send me.

Their Future Glory

Jhn 17:22

Jhn 17:22And the glory which thou hast given me I have given unto them; that they may be one, even as we are one;

Jhn 17:23

Jhn 17:23I in them, and thou in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that thou didst send me, and lovedst them, even as thou lovedst me.

Jhn 17:24

Jhn 17:24Father, I desire 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.

Jhn 17:25

Jhn 17:25O righteous Father, the world knew thee not, but I knew thee; and these knew that thou didst send me;

Jhn 17:26

Jhn 17:26and I made known unto them thy name, and will make it known; that the love wherewith thou lovedst me may be in them, and I in them.
