Jesus Prays for Himself

17 Jesus spoke these things, looked up to heaven, and said, “Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son so that the Son^(A) may glorify you,^{(B) 2} since you gave him authority over all people,^[a](C) so that he may give eternal life^(D) to everyone you have given him.^{(E) 3} This is eternal life: that they may know you, the only^(F) true^(G) God, and the one you have sent^(H) —Jesus Christ.^{(I) 4} I have glorified you on the earth by completing the work you gave me to do. ⁵ Now, Father,^(J) glorify me in your presence with that glory^(K) I had with you before the world existed.^(L)

Jesus Prays for His Disciples

⁶ “I have revealed your name^(M) to the people you gave me^(N) from the world.^(O) They were yours, you gave them to me,^(P) and they have kept your word.^{(Q) 7} Now they know that everything you have given me is from you, ⁸ because I have given them the words you gave me.^(R) They have received them and have known for certain that I came from you.^(S) They have believed that you sent me.

⁹ “I pray^[b] for them. I am not praying for the world but for those you have given me,^(T) because they are yours. ¹⁰ Everything I have is yours, and everything you have is mine,^(U) and I am glorified in them. ¹¹ I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you.^(V) Holy^(W) Father, protect^[c] them by your name^(X) that you have given me, so that they may be one^(Y) as we are^(Z) one. ¹² While I was with them, I was protecting them by your name that you have given me. I guarded^(AA) them and not one of them is lost, except the son of destruction,^[d] so that the Scripture^(AB) may be fulfilled.^{(AC) 13} Now I am coming to you, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy completed in them. ¹⁴ I have given them your word. The world hated^(AD) them because they are not of the world,^(AE) just as I am not of the world.^{(AF) 15} I am not praying that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.^{(AG) 16} They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.^{(AH) 17} Sanctify^(AI) them by the truth; ^(AJ) your word is truth. ¹⁸ As you sent me into the world,^(AK) I also have sent them into the world. ¹⁹ I sanctify myself for them, so that they also may be sanctified by the truth.

Jesus Prays for All Believers

²⁰ “I pray not only for these, but also for those who believe in me through their word. ²¹ May they all be one,^(AL) as you, Father, are in me and I am in you.^(AM) May they also be^[e] in us, so that the world may believe you sent me. ²² I have given them the glory^(AN) you have given me, so that they may be one as we are one. ²³ I am in them and you are in me,^(AO) so that they may be made completely one, that the world may know you have sent me and have loved^(AP) them as you have loved me.^(AQ)

²⁴ “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am,^(AR) so that they will see my glory, which you have given me because you loved me before the world’s foundation. ²⁵ Righteous Father, the world has not known you. However, I have known you,^(AS) and they have known that you sent me. ²⁶ I made your name^(AT) known to them and will continue to make it known, so that the love you have loved me with may be in them and I may be in them.”^(AU)
