John 17

Common English Bible CEB

1 When Jesus finished saying these things, he looked up to heaven and said, “Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, so that the Son can glorify you.

2 You gave him authority over everyone so that he could give eternal life to everyone you gave him.

3 This is eternal life: to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you sent.

4 I have glorified you on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do.

5 Now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I shared with you before the world was created.

6 “I have revealed your name to the people you gave me from this world. They were yours and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word.

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

8 This is because I gave them the words that you gave me, and they received them. They truly understood that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me.

9 “I'm praying for them. I'm not praying for the world but for those you gave me, because they are yours.

10 Everything that is mine is yours and everything that is yours is mine; I have been glorified in them.

11 I'm no longer in the world, but they are in the world, even as I'm coming to you. Holy Father, watch over them in your name, the name you gave me, that they will be one just as we are one.

12 When I was with them, I watched over them in your name, the name you gave to me, and I kept them safe. None of them were lost, except the one who was destined for destruction, so that scripture would be fulfilled.

13 Now I'm coming to you and I say these things while I'm in the world so that they can share completely in my joy.

14 I gave your word to them and the world hated them, because they don't belong to this world, just as I don't belong to this world.

15 I'm not asking that you take them out of this world but that you keep them safe from the evil one.

16 They don't belong to this world, just as I don't belong to this world.

17 Make them holy in the truth; your word is truth.

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

19 I made myself holy on their behalf so that they also would be made holy in the truth.

20 “I'm not praying only for them but also for those who believe in me because of their word.

21 I pray they will be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. I pray that they also will be in us, so that the world will believe that you sent me.

22 I've given them the glory that you gave me so that they can be one just as we are one.

23 I'm in them and you are in me so that they will be made perfectly one. Then the world will know that you sent me and that you have loved them just as you loved me.

24 “Father, I want those you gave me to be with me where I am. Then they can see my glory, which you gave me because you loved me before the creation of the world.

25 "Righteous Father, even the world didn't know you, but I've known you, and these believers know that you sent me.

26 I've made your name known to them and will continue to make it known so that your love for me will be in them, and I myself will be in them."

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 After saying this, Jesus looked up to heaven and said, "Father, the time is here. Give your Son glory so that your Son can give you glory.

2 After all, you've given him authority over all humanity so that he can give eternal life to all those you gave to him.

3 This is eternal life: to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent.

4 On earth I have given you glory by finishing the work you gave me to do.

5 Now, Father, give me glory in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world existed.

6 "I made your name known to the people you gave me. They are from this world. They belonged to you, and you gave them to me. They did what you told them.

7 Now they know that everything you gave me comes from you,

8 because I gave them the message that you gave me. They have accepted this message, and they know for sure that I came from you. They have believed that you sent me.

9 "I pray for them. I'm not praying for the world but for those you gave me, because they are yours.

10 Everything I have is yours, and everything you have is mine. I have been given glory by the people you have given me.

11 I won't be in the world much longer, but they are in the world, and I'm coming back to you. Holy Father, keep them safe by the power of your name, the name that you gave me, so that their unity may be like ours.

12 While I was with them, I kept them safe by the power of your name, the name that you gave me. I watched over them, and none of them, except one person, became lost. So Scripture came true.

13 "But now, [Father,] I'm coming back to you. I say these things while I'm still in the world so that they will have the same joy that I have.

14 I have given them your message. But the world has hated them because they don't belong to the world any more than I belong to the world.

15 I'm not asking you to take them out of the world but to protect them from the evil one.

16 They don't belong to the world any more than I belong to the world.

17 "Use the truth to make them holy. Your words are truth.

18 I have sent them into the world the same way you sent me into the world.

19 I'm dedicating myself to this holy work I'm doing for them so that they, too, will use the truth to be holy.

20 "I'm not praying only for them. I'm also praying for those who will believe in me through their message.

21 I pray that all of these people continue to have unity in the way that you, Father, are in me and I am in you. I pray that they may be united with us so that the world will believe that you have sent me.

22 I have given them the glory that you gave me. I did this so that they are united in the same way we are.

23 I am in them, and you are in me. So they are completely united. In this way the world knows that you have sent me and that you have loved them in the same way you have loved me.

24 "Father, I want those you have given to me to be with me, to be where I am. I want them to see my glory, which you gave me because you loved me before the world was made.

25 Righteous Father, the world didn't know you. Yet, I knew you, and these [disciples] have known that you sent me.

26 I have made your name known to them, and I will make it known so that the love you have for me will be in them and I will be in them."
