with regard to all those whom thou hast given him, he should give to
them eternal life: (3)and this is eternal life, that they should know
thee the only true God, and him whom thou hast sent, Jesus, the
Messiah. (4)I have glorified thee upon earth: I have completed the work
which thou gavest me to perform. (5)And now, Father, do thou glorify me
with thyself in the glory which I held with thee before the world was.
(6)I have made known thy name to the persons whom thou gavest me out of
the world: for thee they had a being, and to me thou hast given them;
and thy word have they kept. (7)Now have they known, that all things
whatsoever thou hast given me are from thee. (8)For the declarations
which thou gavest to me I have delivered to them; and they have
received them, and have known assuredly that I came out from thee, and
they have believed that thou hast sent me. (9)I entreat for them: I
make no request for the world; but for those thou hast given me; for
they are thine. (10)And all mine are thine, and thine mine; and I have
been glorified in them. (11)And now no longer am I in this world, but
these are in the world, and I am coming to thee. Holy Father! preserve
them for thy name's sake whom thou hast given me, that they may be one,
as we are. (12)When I was with them in the world, I preserved them by
thy name: those whom thou hast given me have I guarded, and not one of
them is perished, except the son of perdition; that the scripture might
be fulfilled. (13)But now I am coming to thee; and I am speaking these
things in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in
themselves. (14)I have given them thy word and the world hath hated
them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
(15)I entreat not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but
that thou shouldest preserve them from the wicked one. (16)They are not
of the world, just as I am not of the world. (17)Sanctify them by thy
truth: thy word is truth. (18)As thou hast sent me into the world, even
so have I sent them into the world. (19)And for them I devote myself,
that they also might be sanctified by the truth. (20)And not for them
do I make request only, but also for those who shall believe in me
through their word; (21)that all may be one; as thou, Father, in me,
and I in thee, that these also may be one in us: that the world may
believe that thou hast sent me. (22)And I have given them the glory,
which thou hast given me;
