(29)His disciples said unto him, Lo! now thou speakest plainly, and speakest in no-wise proverbial. (30)Now we know that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any person should ask thee: by this we believe that thou hast come forth from God. (31)Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? (32)Behold, the hour is coming, yea, it is already come, that ye shall be dispersed, each after his own concerns, and shall leave me alone: though I am not alone, because the Father is with me. (33)These things have I spoken to you, that ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good courage; I have overcome the world. CHAP. XVII. THESE things spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee: (2)even as thou hast given him authority over all flesh, that with regard to all those whom thou hast given him, he should give to them eternal life: (3)and this is eternal life, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou hast sent, Jesus, the Messiah. (4)I have glorified thee upon earth: I have completed the work which thou gavest me to perform. (5)And now, Father, do thou glorify me with thyself in the glory which I held with thee before the world was.

(11)And now no longer am I in this world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to thee. Holy Father! preserve them for thy name's sake whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. (12)When I was with them in the world, I preserved them by thy name: those whom thou hast given me have I guarded, and not one of them is perished, except the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. (13)But now I am coming to thee; and I am speaking these things in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. (14)I have given them thy word and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. (15)I entreat not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest preserve them from the wicked one. (16)They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. (17)Sanctify them by thy truth: thy word is truth. (18)As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I sent them into the world. (19)And for them I devote myself,
