John 17:20-26

New Matthew Bible

²⁰ I pray not for them alone, but also for those who will believe on me through their preaching: ²¹ that they all may be one, as you, Father, are in me, and I in you; that they may also be one in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. ²² And the glory that you gave me, I have given them, so that they may be one as we are one, ²³ I in them and you in me, so that they may be made perfect in one, and so that the world may know that you have sent me, and have loved them as you have loved me.

²⁴ Father, I will that those whom you have given me be with me where I am, that they may see the glory that you have given me. For you loved me before the making of the world. ²⁵ O righteous Father, the very world has not known you, but I have known you, and these have known that you have sent me. ²⁶ And I have declared to them your name, and will declare it, so that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and so that I may be in them.
