Their Future Glory

22 The (A)glory which You have given Me I have given to them, 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 (D)loved them, even as You have 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 “O (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.”

22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:

23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

25 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

26 And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

26 and I made known to them Thy name, and will make known, that the love with which Thou lovedst me in them may be, and I in them.'
