John 17:1-6 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

1. Jesus said these things, and then, lifting up his eyes toward heaven, he said: "Father, the hour has arrived: glorify your Son, so that your Son may glorify you,

2. just as you have given authority over all flesh to him, so that he may give eternal life to all those whom you have given to him.

3. And this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

4. I have glorified you on earth. I have completed the work that you gave me to accomplish.

5. And now Father, glorify me within yourself, with the glory that I had with you before the world ever was.

6. I have manifested your name to the men whom you have given to me from the world. They were yours, and you gave them to me. And they have kept your word.
