John 17:1-3

New Century Version

Jesus Prays for His Followers

17 After Jesus said these things, he looked toward heaven and prayed, “Father, the time has come. Give glory to your Son so that the Son can give glory to you. ² You gave the Son power over all people so that the Son could give eternal life to all those you gave him. ³ And this is eternal life: that people know you, the only true God, and that they know Jesus Christ, the One you sent.
