17:1  After saying this, Jesus raised his eyes to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, so that your Son may glorify you,
17:2  since you have given him authority over all people, so that he may give eternal life to all those you have given him.
17:3  And eternal life is this: to know you, the only true God, and the one you have sent, Jesus Christ.
17:4  “I have glorified you on earth by completing the work that you entrusted to me.
17:5  So now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began.
17:6  “I have made your name known to those whom you gave me from the world. They were yours, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word.
17:7  Now they have come to understand that everything you gave me is from you.
17:8  For the words you gave to me I have given to them, and they have accepted them and know with certainty that I have come from you, and they have believed that you sent me.
17:9  “It is for them that I pray. I do not pray for the world, but for those you gave me because they are yours
17:10  Everything I have is yours, and everything you have is mine, and through them I have been glorified.
17:11  I will remain no longer in the world, but they will still be in the world while I will be coming to you. “Holy Father, protect by the power of your name those you have given me, so that they may be one, even as we are one.
17:12  While I was with them I protected them by your name that you have given me, and I kept them safe. Not one of them was lost, except the one destined to be lost, so that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
17:13  “Now I am coming to you, and I say these things while I am still in the world so that my joy may come to full measure in them.
17:14  I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world.
17:15  I am not asking you to take them out of the world, but I do ask you to protect them from the evil one.
17:16  They do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world.
17:17  “Consecrate them in the truth. Your word is truth.
17:18  As you sent me into the world, so have I sent them into the world.
17:19  And for their sakes I consecrate myself, so that they too may be consecrated in truth.
17:20  “I pray not only on behalf of these, but also for those who through their word will come to believe in me.
17:21  May they all be one. As you, Father, are in me and I in you, may they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.
17:22  “The glory that you have given me I have given to them, so that they may be one, as we are one,
17:23  I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one, and thus the world may know that you have sent me and that you have loved them even as you have loved me.
17:24  “Father, allow those you have given me to be with me where I am, so that they may behold my glory, which you have bestowed on me because you loved me before the foundation of the world.
17:25  “Righteous Father, the world has not known you; I have known you, and they have known that you have sent me.
17:26  I have made your name known to them, and I will make it known, so that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them.”
