John 17:1-10 GW
After saying this, Jesus looked up to heaven and said, "Father, the time is here. Give your Son glory so that your Son can give you glory.

(3) This is eternal life: to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent. (4) On earth I have given you glory by finishing the work you gave me to do. (5) Now, Father, give me glory in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world existed. (6) "I made your name known to the people you gave me. They are from this world. They belonged to you, and you gave them to me. They did what you told them. (7) Now they know that everything you gave me comes from you, (8) because I gave them the message that you gave me. They have accepted this message, and they know for sure that I came from you. They have believed that you sent me. (9) "I pray for them. I'm not praying for the world but for those you gave me, because they are yours. (10) Everything I have is yours, and everything you have is mine. I have been given glory by the people you have given me.

(3) And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. (4) I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do. (5) And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed. (6) "I have manifest 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. (7) Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you. (8) For 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.

John 17:1-10 BBE
Jesus said these things; then, lifting his eyes to heaven, he said, Father, the time has now come; give glory to your Son, so that the Son may give glory to you: (2) Even as you gave him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all those whom you have given to him. (3) And this is eternal life: to have knowledge of you, the only true God, and of him whom you have sent, even Jesus Christ. (4) I have given you glory on the earth, having done all the work which you gave me to do. (5) And now, Father, let me have glory with you, even that glory which I had with you before the world was. (6) I have given knowledge of your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world: yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your words. (7) Now it is clear to them that whatever you have given to me comes from you: (8) Because I have given them the words which you gave to me; and they have taken them to heart, and have certain knowledge that I came from you, and they have faith that you sent me. (9) My prayer is for them: my prayer is not for the world, but for those whom you have given to me, because they are yours (10) All mine are yours, and yours are mine and I have glory in them.

17 Jesus spoke these things, and, raising his eyes to heaven, he said: "Father, the hour has come; glorify your son, that your son may glorify you, 2 according as you have given him authority over all flesh, that, as regards the whole [number] whom you have given him, he may give them everlasting life. 3 This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ. 4 I have glorified you on the earth, having finished the work you have given me to do. 5 So now you, Father, glorify me alongside yourself with the glory that I had alongside you before the world was. 6 "I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world. They were yours, and you gave them to me, and they have observed your word. 7 They have now come to know that all the things you gave me are from you; 8 because the sayings that you gave me I have given to them, and they have received them and have certainly come to know that I came out as your representative, and they have believed that you sent me forth. 9 I make request concerning them; I make request, not concerning the world, but concerning those you have given me; because they are yours, 10 and all my things are yours and yours are mine, and I have been glorified among them.
