Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

KJB-1611 1 Christ prayeth to his Father to glorifie him, 6 To preserue his Apostles 11 In vnitie, 17 And trueth, 20 To glorifie them, and all other beleeuers with him in heauen.
(1 Christ prayeth to his Father to glorifie him, 6 To preserve his Apostles 11 In unitie, 17 And truth, 20 To glorifie them, and all other believers with him in heaven.)
This chapter is one long prayer that can be divided into three parts according to the topics of Jesus’ prayer requests:1. Jesus prays for himself (17:1–5)2. Jesus prays for his disciples (17:6–19)3. Jesus prays for all Christians (17:20–26)
Scripture often speaks of God’s glory as a great, bright light that visually represents how great God is. When people see this light, they are afraid. In this chapter Jesus asks God to show his followers his true glory (17:1). (See: glory)
Jesus existed before God created the world (17:5). John wrote about this in 1:1.
Jesus is God’s one and only Son (3:16), so he could pray differently from the way other people pray. He used many words that might seem to be commands. Your translation should make Jesus sound like a son speaking with love and respect to his father and telling him what the father needs to do so that the father will be honored.
