John 17:1–9

These words spake Jesus, and alifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, bthe hour is come; cglorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 dAs thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to eas many as thou hast given him. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the fonly gtrue God, and Jesus Christ, hwhom thou hast sent. 4 iI have glorified thee on the earth: kI have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5 And now, O Father, lglorify thou me with thine own self with the glory mwhich I had with thee nbefore the world was.

6 oI have manifested thy name unto the men pwhich thou gavest me out of the world: zthine they were, and thou gavest them me; and qthey have kept thy word. 7 Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are rof thee. 8 For I have given unto them sthe words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and thave known surely that I came out from thee, and they thave ubelieved that wthou didst send me. 9 xI pray for them: I ypray not for the world, but for them pwhich thou hast given me; for zthey are thine.
