The Life of Jesus

And now I am not in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name whom thou hast given me: that they may be one, as we also are.

While I was with them, I kept them in thy name. Those whom thou gavest me have I kept: and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition: that the scripture may be fulfilled.

And now I come to thee: and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy filled in themselves.

I have given them thy word, and the world hath hated them: because they are not of the world, as I also am not of the world.

I pray not that thou shouldst take them out of the world, but that thou shouldst keep them from evil.

They are not of the world, as I also am not of the world.

Sanctify them in truth. Thy word is truth.

As thou hast sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.

And for them do I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.

And not for them only do I pray, but for them also who through their word shall believe in me.

That they all may be one, as thou, Father, in me, and I in thee; that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

And the glory which thou hast given me, I have given to them: that, they may be one, as we also are one.

I in them, and thou in me: that they may be made perfect in one: and the world may know that thou hast sent me and hast loved them, as thou hast also loved me.

Father, I will that where I am, they also whom thou hast given me may be with me: that they may see my glory which thou hast given me, because thou hast loved me before the creation of the world.

Just Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee. And these have known that thou hast sent me.

And I have made known thy name to them and will make it known: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

When Jesus had said these things, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where there was a garden, into which he entered with his disciples.

And Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place: because Jesus had often resorted thither together with his disciples.

Judas therefore having received a band of soldiers and servants from the chief priests and the Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.

Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth and said to them: Whom seek ye?

They answered him: Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith to them: I am he. And Judas also, who betrayed him, stood with them.

As soon therefore as he had said to them: I am he; they went backward and fell to the ground.

Again therefore he asked them: Whom seek ye? And they said: Jesus of Nazareth.

Jesus answered: I have told you that I am he. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way,

That the word might be fulfilled which he said: Of them whom thou hast given me, I have not lost any one.
