John 17:1-9

1 Jesus spoke these words and lifted up his eyes to heaven and said, Father, the hour is come; clarify thy Son, that thy Son may also clarify thee,
2 as thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
4 I have clarified thee on the earth; I have finished the work which thou didst give me to do.
5 And now, O Father, clarify thou me with thine own self with that clarity which I had with thee before the world was.
6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou didst give me out of the world; thine they were, and thou didst give them me; and they have kept thy word.
7 Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.
8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
9 I pray for them; I do not pray for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine.
