John 17:6-19

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

I Have Revealed Your Name To The Men You Gave Me. Keep Them In Your Name

⁶ “I revealed Your name to the men whom You gave to Me out of the world. They were Yours, and You gave them to Me. And they have kept Your word. ⁷ They have now come-to-know that all^[a] things that You have given to Me are from You— ⁸ because I have given them the words which You gave to Me, and they received them, and truly understood that I came forth from You, and believed that You sent Me forth. ⁹ I am praying^[b] for them. I am not praying for the world, but for the ones whom You have given to Me— because they are Yours; ¹⁰ indeed all^[c] My things are Yours, and Yours, Mine^[d]. And I have been glorified in them. ¹¹ And I am^[e] no longer in the world, and they are in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, keep^[f] them in^[g] Your name which You have given to Me, in order that they may be one, just as We are. ¹² When I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name which You have given to Me. And I guarded them, and none of them perished— except the son of ^[h] destruction, in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled. ¹³ But now I am coming to You. And I am speaking these things in the world so that they may have My joy made-full in themselves.

I Have Given Them Your Word. Set Them Apart In The Truth, Which Is Your Word

¹⁴ “I have given them Your word, and the world hated them— because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. ¹⁵ I am not praying that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the^[i] evil one. ¹⁶ They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world— ¹⁷ set them apart^[j] in^[k] the truth. Your word is truth. ¹⁸ Just as You sent Me forth into the world, I also sent them forth into the world. ¹⁹ And I am setting apart Myself for them, in order that they may also be set apart in truth.
