John 17:14-17:26

Jesus' Prayer Pt. 2

  1. I 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.
  2. I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
  3. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
  4. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
  5. As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.
  6. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.
  7. Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;
  8. That 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.
  9. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
  10. I 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.
  11. Father, 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.
  12. O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.
  13. And 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.
