1These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:

1These things spake Jesus; and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that the Son may glorify thee:

2As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.

2even as thou gavest him authority over all flesh, that to all whom thou hast given him, he should give eternal life.

3And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

3And this is life eternal, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou didst send, even Jesus Christ.

4I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

4I glorified thee on the earth, having accomplished the work which thou hast given me to do.

5And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

5And now, Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

6I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.

6I manifested thy name unto the men whom thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them to me; and they have kept thy word.

7Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.

7Now they know that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are from thee:

8For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

8for the words which thou gavest me I have given unto them; and they received them, and knew of a truth that I came forth from thee, and they believed that thou didst send me.

9I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.

9I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine:

10And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.

10and all things that are mine are thine, and thine are mine: and I am glorified in them.

11And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

11And I am no more in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are.

12While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

12While I was with them, I kept them in thy name which thou hast given me: and I guarded them, and not one of them perished, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

13And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

13But now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves.

14I 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.

14I have given them thy word; and the world hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

15I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

15I pray not that thou shouldest take them from the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil one.

16They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

16They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

17Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

17Sanctify them in the truth: thy word is truth.

18As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

18As thou didst send me into the world, even so sent I them into the world.

19And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.

19And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.

20Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;

20Neither for these only do I pray, but for them also that believe on me through their word;

21That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

21that they may all be one; even as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us: that the world may believe that thou didst send me.

22And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:

22And the glory which thou hast given me I have given unto them; that they may be one, even as we are one;

23I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

23I in them, and thou in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that thou didst send me, and lovedst them, even as thou lovedst me.

24Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

24Father, I desire that they also whom thou hast given me be with me where I am, that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

25O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

25O righteous Father, the world knew thee not, but I knew thee; and these knew that thou didst send me;

26And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

26and I made known unto them thy name, and will make it known; that the love wherewith thou lovedst me may be in them, and I in them.
