John 17:1–11

¹These things Jesus spoke, and lifted up his eyes to heaven and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee; ²as thou hast given him authority over all flesh, that as to all that thou hast given to him, he should give them life eternal. ³And this is the eternal life, that they should know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent. ⁴I have glorified thee on the earth, I have completed the work which thou gavest me that I should do it; ⁵and now glorify me, thou Father, along with thyself, with the glory which I had along with thee before the world was.

⁶I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou gavest me out of the world. They were thine, and thou gavest them me, and they have kept thy word. ⁷Now they have known that all things that thou hast given me are of thee; ⁸for the words which thou hast given me I have given them, and they have received them, and have known truly that I came out from thee, and have believed that thou sentest me. ⁹I demand concerning them; I do not demand concerning the world, but concerning those whom thou hast given me, for they are thine, ¹⁰(and all that is mine is thine, and all that is thine mine,) and I am glorified in them.

¹¹And I am no longer 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 as we.
