    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.

    10 (All mine are yours, and yours are mine) and I have glory in them.

    11 And now I will be no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I come to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name which you have given to me, so that they may be one even as we are one.

    12 While I was with them I kept them safe in your name which you have given to me: I took care of them and not one of them has come to destruction, but only the son of destruction, so that the Writings might come true.

    13 And now I come to you; and these things I say in the world so that they may have my joy complete in them.
