John 17:6-24

English Standard Version

^6 (A)“I have manifested your name to the people ^(B)whom you gave me out of the world. ^(C)Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. ⁷ Now they know that everything ^(D)that you have given me is from you. ⁸ For I have given them ^(E)the words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that ^(F)I came from you; and ^(G)they have believed that you sent me. ⁹ I am praying for them. ^(H)I am not praying for the world but for those ^(I)whom you have given me, for ^(J)they are yours. ^10 (K)All mine are yours, and yours are mine, and ^(L)I am glorified in them. ¹¹ And I am no longer in the world, but ^(M)they are in the world, and ^(N)I am coming to you. ^(O)Holy Father, ^(P)keep them in your name, ^(Q)which you have given me, ^(R)that they may be one, ^(S)even as we are one. ^12 (T)While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have ^(U)guarded them, and ^(V)not one of them has been lost except ^(W)the son of destruction, ^(X)that the Scripture might be fulfilled. ¹³ But now ^(Y)I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have ^(Z)my joy fulfilled in themselves. ^14 (AA)I have given them your word, and ^(AB)the world has hated them ^(AC)because they are not of the world, ^(AD)just as I am not of the world. ¹⁵ I ^(AE)do not ask that you ^(AF)take them out of the world, but that you ^(AG)keep them from ^(AH)the evil one.^{[a] 16 (AI)}They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. ^17 (AJ)Sanctify them^[b] in the truth; ^(AK)your word is truth. ^18 (AL)As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. ¹⁹ And ^(AM)for their sake ^(AN)I consecrate myself,^[c] that they also ^(AO)may be sanctified^[d] in truth.

²⁰ “I do not ^(AP)ask for these only, but also for those ^(AQ)who will believe in me through their word, ^21 (AR)that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that ^(AS)they also may be in ^(AT)us, so that the world ^(AU)may believe that you have sent me. ^22 (AV)The glory that you have given me ^(AW)I have given to them, ^(AX)that they may be one even as we are one, ^23 (AY)I in them and you in me, ^(AZ)that they may become perfectly one, ^(BA)so that the world may know that you sent me and ^(BB)loved them even as ^(BC)you loved me. ²⁴ Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be ^(BD)with me ^(BE)where I am, ^(BF)to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me ^(BG)before the foundation of the world.
