Disciples’ Future Glory
22 The (A)glory which You have given Me I also have given to them, so that they may be one, just as We are one; 23 (B)I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected [a]in unity, so that the world may [b]know that (C)You sent Me, and You (D)loved them, just as You loved Me. 24 Father, I desire that (E)they also, whom You have given Me, (F)be with Me where I am, so that they may see My (G)glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before (H)the foundation of the world.
25 “(I)Righteous Father, [c]although (J)the world has not known You, yet I have known You; and these have known that (K)You sent Me; 26 and (L)I have made Your name known to them, and will make it known, so that (M)the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.”
