John 17
1When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, "Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you,
2since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him.
3And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
4I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do.
5And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.
6"I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word.
7Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you.
8For I have given them the words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that I came from you; and they have believed that you sent me.
9I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.
10All mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them.
11And I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one.
12While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
13But now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
14I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
15I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one.
16They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
17Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth.
18As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.
19And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.
20"I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word,
21that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.
22The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one,
23I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me.
24Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world.
25O righteous Father, even though the world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me.
26I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them."
John 18
1When Jesus had spoken these words, he went out with his disciples across the Kidron Valley, where there was a garden, which he and his disciples entered.
2Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with his disciples.
3So Judas, having procured a band of soldiers and some officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, went there with lanterns and torches and weapons.
4Then Jesus, knowing all that would happen to him, came forward and said to them, "Whom do you seek?"
5They answered him, "Jesus of Nazareth." Jesus said to them, "I am he." Judas, who betrayed him, was standing with them.
6When Jesus said to them, "I am he," they drew back and fell to the ground.
7So he asked them again, "Whom do you seek?" And they said, "Jesus of Nazareth."
8Jesus answered, "I told you that I am he. So, if you seek me, let these men go."
9This was to fulfill the word that he had spoken: "Of those whom you gave me I have lost not one."
10Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's servant and cut off his right ear. (The servant's name was Malchus.)
11So Jesus said to Peter, "Put your sword into its sheath; shall I not drink the cup that the Father has given me?"
