The High Priestly Prayer

17 Jesus spoke these things; and ^(A)raising His eyes to heaven, He said, “Father, the hour has come; ^(B)glorify Your Son, so that the Son may glorify You, ² just as ^(C)You gave Him authority over all ^[a]mankind, so that ^[b](D)to all whom You have given Him, ^(E)He may give eternal life. ³ And this is eternal life, that they may know You, ^(F)the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom ^(G)You have sent. ^4 (H)I glorified You on the earth ^[c](I)by accomplishing the work which You have given Me to do. ⁵ And now You, Father, ^(J)glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had ^(K)with You before the world existed.

⁷ But ^(A)whatever things were gain to me, these things I have counted as loss because of Christ. ⁸ More than that, I count all things to be loss ^[a]in view of the surpassing value of ^[b](B)knowing ^(C)Christ Jesus my Lord, ^[c]for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them mere rubbish, so that I may gain Christ, ⁹ and may be found in Him, not having ^(D)a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, ^(E)the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith, ¹⁰ that I may ^(F)know Him and ^(G)the power of His resurrection and ^[d](H)the fellowship of His sufferings, being ^(I)conformed to His death; ¹¹ if somehow I may ^(J)attain to the resurrection from the dead.

¹² Not that I have already ^[e](K)grasped it all or have already ^(L)become perfect, but I press on if I may also ^(M)take hold of that ^[f]for which I ^(N)was even taken hold of by ^(O)Christ Jesus. ¹³ Brothers and sisters, I do not regard myself as having taken hold of it yet; but one thing I do: ^(P)forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, ¹⁴ I ^(Q)press on toward the goal for the prize of the ^(R)upward call of God in ^(S)Christ Jesus.

¹⁹ So then, when the Lord Jesus had ^(A)spoken to them, He ^(B)was received up into heaven and ^(C)sat down at the right hand of God.
