John 16:25 — John 17:14

25 These things I have spoken to you in parables; an hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in parables, but I will report to you plainly concerning the Father.

26 In that day you will bask in My name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father concerning you,

27 For the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came forth from God.

28 I came forth out from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and am going to the Father.

29 His disciples said, Behold, now You are speaking plainly and not saying any parable.

30 Now we know that You know all things and have no need that anyone ask You; by this we believe that You came forth from God.

31 Jesus answered them, Do you now believe?

32 Behold, an hour is coming, and has come, that you will be scattered each to his own place and will leave Me alone; yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.

33 These things I have spoken to you that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction, but take courage; I have overcome the world.

CHAPTER 17

1 These things Jesus spoke, and lifting up His eyes to heaven, He said, Father, the hour has come; glorify Your Son that the Son may glorify You;

2 Even as You have given Him authority over all flesh to give eternal life to all whom You have given Him.

3 And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Him whom You have sent, Jesus Christ.

4 I have glorified You on earth, finishing the work which You have given Me to do.

5 And now, glorify Me along with Yourself, Father, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.

6 I have manifested Your name to the men whom You gave Me out of the world. They were Yours, and You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.

7 Now they have come to know that all that You have given Me is from You,

8 For the words which You gave Me I have given to them, and they received them and knew truly that I came forth from You, and they have believed that You sent Me.

9 I ask concerning them; I do not ask concerning the world, but concerning those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours;

10 And all that is Mine is Yours, and Yours Mine; and I have been glorified in them.

11 And I am no longer in the world; yet they are in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your name, which You have given to Me, that they may be one even as We are.

12 When I was with them, I kept them in Your name, which You have given to Me, and I guarded them; and not one of them perished, except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

13 But now I am coming to You, and these things I speak in the world that they may have My joy made full in themselves.

14 I have given them Your word, and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world even as I am not of the world.
