John 17 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

The High Priestly Prayer

Jhn 17:1These things spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to the heaven, and said -- 'Father, the hour hath come, glorify Thy Son, that Thy Son also may glorify Thee,

Jhn 17:2

Jhn 17:2according as Thou didst give to him authority over all flesh, that -- all that Thou hast given to him -- he may give to them life age-during;

Jhn 17:3

Jhn 17:3and this is the life age-during, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and him whom Thou didst send -- Jesus Christ;

Jhn 17:4

Jhn 17:4I did glorify Thee on the earth, the work I did finish that Thou hast given me, that I may do it.

Jhn 17:5

Jhn 17:5'And now, glorify me, Thou Father, with Thyself, with the glory that I had before the world was, with Thee;

Jhn 17:6

Jhn 17:6I did manifest Thy name to the men whom Thou hast given to me out of the world; Thine they were, and to me Thou hast given them, and Thy word they have kept;

Jhn 17:7

Jhn 17:7now they have known that all things, as many as Thou hast given to me, are from Thee,

Jhn 17:8

Jhn 17:8because the sayings that Thou hast given to me, I have given to them, and they themselves received, and have known truly, that from Thee I came forth, and they did believe that Thou didst send me.

Jhn 17:9

Jhn 17:9'I ask in regard to them; not in regard to the world do I ask, but in regard to those whom Thou hast given to me, because Thine they are,

Jhn 17:10

Jhn 17:10and all mine are Thine, and Thine are mine, and I have been glorified in them;

Jhn 17:11

Jhn 17:11and no more am I in the world, and these are in the world, and I come unto Thee. Holy Father, keep them in Thy name, whom Thou hast given to me, that they may be one as we;

Jhn 17:12

Jhn 17:12when I was with them in the world, I was keeping them in Thy name; those whom Thou hast given to me I did guard, and none of them was destroyed, except the son of the destruction, that the Writing may be fulfilled.

The Disciples in the World

Jhn 17:13

Jhn 17:13'And now unto Thee I come, 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 did hate them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world;

Jhn 17:15

Jhn 17:15I do not ask that Thou mayest take them out of the world, but that Thou mayest keep them out of the evil.

Jhn 17:16

Jhn 17:16'Of the world they are not, as I of the world am not;

Jhn 17:17

Jhn 17:17sanctify them in Thy truth, Thy word is truth;

Jhn 17:18

Jhn 17:18as Thou didst send me to the world, I also did send them to the world;

Jhn 17:19

Jhn 17:19and for them do I sanctify myself, that they also themselves may be sanctified in truth.

Jhn 17:20

Jhn 17:20'And not in regard to these alone do I ask, but also in regard to those who shall be believing, through their word, in me;

Jhn 17:21

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

Their Future Glory

Jhn 17:22

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

Jhn 17:23

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

Jhn 17:24

Jhn 17:24'Father, those whom Thou hast given to me, I will that where I am they also may be with me, that they may behold my glory that Thou didst give to me, because Thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.

Jhn 17:25

Jhn 17:25'Righteous Father, also the world did not know Thee, and I knew Thee, and these have known that Thou didst send me,

Jhn 17:26

Jhn 17:26and I made known to them Thy name, and will make known, that the love with which Thou lovedst me in them may be, and I in them.'
