The High Priestly Prayer

Jhn 17:1These words spoke 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:

Jhn 17:2

Jhn 17:2As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.

Jhn 17:3

Jhn 17:3And this is life eternal, that they may know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent.

Jhn 17:4

Jhn 17:4I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

Jhn 17:5

Jhn 17:5And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thy ownself, with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

Jhn 17:6

Jhn 17:6I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou gavest to 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 have known that all things whatever thou hast given me are from thee.

Jhn 17:8

Jhn 17:8For I have given to them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

Jhn 17:9

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

Jhn 17:10

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

Jhn 17:11

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

Jhn 17:12

Jhn 17:12While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest to me I have kept, and none of them is lost but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

The Disciples in the World

Jhn 17:13

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

Jhn 17:14

Jhn 17:14I have given to them thy word; and the world hath 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 shouldst take them out of the world, but that thou shouldst keep them from the evil.

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 through thy truth: thy word is truth.

Jhn 17:18

Jhn 17:18As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

Jhn 17:19

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

Jhn 17:20

Jhn 17:20Neither pray I for these alone; but for them also who shall believe on me through their word.

Jhn 17:21

Jhn 17:21That 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.

Their Future Glory

Jhn 17:22

Jhn 17:22And the glory which thou gavest to me, I have given to 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 made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them as thou hast loved me.

Jhn 17:24

Jhn 17:24Father, I will that they also whom thou hast given to me be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory which thou hast given to me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

Jhn 17:25

Jhn 17:25O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

Jhn 17:26

Jhn 17:26And I have declared to them thy name, and will declare it: that the love with which thou hast loved me, may be in them, and I in them.
