John 17:6-19

The Message Bible MSG

6 I spelled out your character in detail To the men and women you gave me. They were yours in the first place; Then you gave them to me, And they have now done what you said.

7 They know now, beyond the shadow of a doubt, That everything you gave me is firsthand from you,

8 For the message you gave me, I gave them; And they took it, and were convinced That I came from you. They believed that you sent me.

9 I pray for them. I'm not praying for the God-rejecting world But for those you gave me, For they are yours by right.

10 Everything mine is yours, and yours mine, And my life is on display in them.

11 For I'm no longer going to be visible in the world; They'll continue in the world While I return to you. Holy Father, guard them as they pursue this life That you conferred as a gift through me, So they can be one heart and mind

12 As we are one heart and mind. As long as I was with them, I guarded them In the pursuit of the life you gave through me; I even posted a night watch. And not one of them got away, Except for the rebel bent on destruction (the exception that proved the rule of Scripture).

13 Now I'm returning to you. I'm saying these things in the world's hearing So my people can experience My joy completed in them.

14 I gave them your word; The godless world hated them because of it, Because they didn't join the world's ways,

15 Just as I didn't join the world's ways. I'm not asking that you take them out of the world But that you guard them from the Evil One.

16 They are no more defined by the world Than I am defined by the world.

17 Make them holy - consecrated - with the truth; Your word is consecrating truth.

18 In the same way that you gave me a mission in the world, I give them a mission in the world.

19 I'm consecrating myself for their sakes So they'll be truth-consecrated in their mission.

New International Version NIV

6 “I have revealed you to those whom you gave me out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word.

7 Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you.

8 For I gave them the words you gave me and they accepted them. They knew with certainty that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me.

9 I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours.

10 All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them.

11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power ofyour name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one.

12 While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe bythat name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled.

13 “I am coming to you now, but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full measure of my joy within them.

14 I have given them your word and the world has hated them, for they are not of the world any more than I am of the world.

15 My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.

16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of it.

17 Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.

18 As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world.

19 For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified.
