| New King James Version | New Living Translation |
| 1Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, | 1After saying all these things, Jesus looked up to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son so he can give glory back to you. |
| 2as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. | 2 For you have given him authority over everyone. He gives eternal life to each one you have given him. |
| 3And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. | 3 And this is the way to have eternal life—to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth. |
| 4I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do. | 4 I brought glory to you here on earth by completing the work you gave me to do. |
| 5And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was. | 5 Now, Father, bring me into the glory we shared before the world began. |
| 6“I have manifested Your name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word. | 6 “I have revealed you to the ones you gave me from this world. They were always yours. You gave them to me, and they have kept your word. |
| 7Now they have known that all things which You have given Me are from You. | 7 Now they know that everything I have is a gift from you, |
| 8For I have given to them the words which You have given Me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came forth from You; and they have believed that You sent Me. | 8 for I have passed on to them the message you gave me. They accepted it and know that I came from you, and they believe you sent me. |
| 9“I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours. | 9 “My prayer is not for the world, but for those you have given me, because they belong to you. |
| 10And all Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine, and I am glorified in them. | 10 All who are mine belong to you, and you have given them to me, so they bring me glory. |
| 11Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are. | 11 Now I am departing from the world; they are staying in this world, but I am coming to you. Holy Father, you have given me your name; now protect them by the power of your name so that they will be united just as we are. |
| 12While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. | 12 During my time here, I protected them by the power of the name you gave me. I guarded them so that not one was lost, except the one headed for destruction, as the Scriptures foretold. |
| 13But now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves. | 13 “Now I am coming to you. I told them many things while I was with them in this world so they would be filled with my joy. |
| 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. | 14 I have given them your word. And the world hates them because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. |
| 15I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one. | 15 I’m not asking you to take them out of the world, but to keep them safe from the evil one. |
| 16They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. | 16 They do not belong to this world any more than I do. |
| 17Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. | 17 Make them holy by your truth; teach them your word, which is truth. |
| 18As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. | 18 Just as you sent me into the world, I am sending them into the world. |
| 19And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth. | 19 And I give myself as a holy sacrifice for them so they can be made holy by your truth. |
| 20“I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; | 20 “I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message. |
| 21that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. | 21 I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me. |
| 22And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: | 22 “I have given them the glory you gave me, so they may be one as we are one. |
| 23I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me. | 23 I am in them and you are in me. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me. |
| 24“Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. | 24 Father, I want these whom you have given me to be with me where I am. Then they can see all the glory you gave me because you loved me even before the world began! |
| 25O righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me. | 25 “O righteous Father, the world doesn’t know you, but I do; and these disciples know you sent me. |
| 26And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.” | 26 I have revealed you to them, and I will continue to do so. Then your love for me will be in them, and I will be in them.” |
