[16:23] "In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. [16:24] Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full. [16:25] I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. But the time is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father. [16:26] In that day you will ask in my name; and I don't say to you, that I will pray to the Father for you, [16:27] for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from God. [16:28] I came out from the Father, and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world, and go to the Father."
[16:29] His disciples said to him, "Behold, now you speak plainly, and speak no figures of speech. [16:30] Now we know that you know all things, and don't need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came forth from God."
[16:31] Jesus answered them, "Do you now believe? [16:32] Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. [16:33] I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up! I have overcome the world."
[17:1] Jesus said these things, and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said, "Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may also glorify you; [17:2] even as you gave him authority over all flesh, he will give eternal life to all whom you have given him. [17:3] This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Jesus Christ. [17:4] I glorified you on the earth. I have accomplished the work which you have given me to do. [17:5] Now, Father, glorify me with your own self with the glory which I had with you before the world existed. [17:6] I revealed your name to the people whom you have given me out of the world. They were yours, and you have given them to me. They have kept your word. [17:7] Now they have known that all things whatever you have given me are from you, [17:8] for the words which you have given me I have given to them, and they received them, and knew for sure that I came forth from you, and they have believed that you sent me. [17:9] I pray for them. I don't pray for the world, but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours. [17:10] All things that are mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them. [17:11] I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are. [17:12] While I was with them in the world, I kept them in your name. Those whom you have given me I have kept. None of them is lost, except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. [17:13] But now I come to you, and I say these things in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves. [17:14] I have given them your word. The world hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. [17:15] I pray not that you would take them from the world, but that you would keep them from the evil one. [17:16] They are not of the world even as I am not of the world. [17:17] Sanctify them in your truth. Your word is truth.[*] [17:18] As you sent me into the world, even so I have sent them into the world. [17:19] For their sakes I sanctify myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth. [17:20] Not for these only do I pray, but for those also who believe in me through their word, [17:21] that they may all be one; even 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. [17:22] The glory which you have given me, I have given to them; that they may be one, even as we are one; [17:23] I in them, and you in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that you sent me, and loved them, even as you loved me. [17:24] Father, I desire that they also whom you have given me be with me where I am, that they may see my glory, which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the world. [17:25] Righteous Father, the world hasn't known you, but I knew you; and these knew that you sent me. [17:26] I made known to them your name, and will make it known; that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them."
[18:1] When Jesus had spoken these words, he went out with his disciples over the brook Kidron, where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples entered. [18:2] Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with his disciples. [18:3] Judas then, having taken a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons. [18:4] Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were happening to him, went forth, and said to them, "Who are you looking for?"
[18:5] They answered him, "Jesus of Nazareth."
Jesus said to them, "I am he."
Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them. [18:6] When therefore he said to them, "I am he," they went backward, and fell to the ground.
[18:7] Again therefore he asked them, "Who are you looking for?"
They said, "Jesus of Nazareth."
