CHAPTER 17
1 These things Jesus spake, and when he had cast up [or lifted up] his eyes into heaven, he said, Father, the hour cometh, clarify thy Son, that thy Son clarify thee.
2 As thou hast given to him power on each flesh, [or man], that all thing that thou hast given to him, he give to them everlasting life.
3 And this is everlasting life, that they know thee very God alone, and whom thou hast sent, Jesus Christ.
4 I have clarified thee on the earth, I have ended the work, that thou hast given to me to do.
5 And now, Father, clarify thou me at thyself, with the clearness that I had at thee, before the world was made.
6 I have showed thy name to those men, which thou hast given to me of the world; they were thine, and thou hast given them to me, and they have kept thy word.
7 And now they have known, that all things that thou hast given to me, be of thee.
8 For the words that thou hast given to me, I gave to them; and they have taken, and have known verily, that I went out from thee; and they believed, that thou sentest me.
9 I pray for them, I pray not for the world, but for them that thou hast given to me, for they be thine.
10 And all my things be thine, and thy things be mine; and I am clarified in them.
11 And now I am not in the world, and these be in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name, which thou hast given to me, that they be one, as we be.
12 While I was with them, I kept them in thy name; those that thou gavest to me, I kept, and none of them perished, but the son of perdition, that the scripture be fulfilled.
13 But now I come to thee, and I speak these things in the world, that they have my joy fulfilled in them-selves.
14 I gave to them thy word, and the world had them in hate; for they be not of the world, as I am not of the world.
15 I pray not, that thou take them away from the world, but that thou keep them from evil.
16 They be not of the world, as I am not of the world.
17 Hallow thou them in truth; thy word is truth.
18 As thou sentest me into the world, also I sent them into the world.
19 And I hallow myself for them, that also they be hallowed in truth.
20 And I pray not only for them, but also for them that shall believe into me by the word of them;
21 that all [they] be one, as thou, Father, in me, and I in thee, that also they in us be one; that the world believe, that thou hast sent me.
22 And I have given to them the clearness, that thou hast given to me, that they be one, as we be one;
23 I in them, and thou in me, that they be ended into one; and that the world know, that thou sentest me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved also me.
24 Father, they which thou hast given to me, I will that where I am, that they be with me, that they see my clearness, that thou hast given to me; for thou lovedest me before the making of the world.
25 Father, rightfully the world knew thee not [or Rightful Father, the world knew not thee], but I knew thee, and these knew, that thou sentest me.
26 And I have made thy name known to them, and shall make known; that the love by which thou hast loved me, be in them, and I in them.
