I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou hast given me out of the world. Thine they were, and thou hast given them me, and they have kept thy word.

For I have given them the words which thou gavest me, and they have received them, and have known surely, that I came forth from thee, and they have believed that thou hast sent me.

And I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep thro' thy name them whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

And now I am coming to thee, and I speak these things in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in them.

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.

And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified thro' the truth.

That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art 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 them, that they may be one, as we are one:

I in them, and thou in me, that they may be perfected in one; and that the world may know, that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them as thou hast loved me.

He asked them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said to him, Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied and said, I am not.

Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas to the governor's palace, and it was early: and they went not into the palace themselves, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover.

They answered and said to him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him to thee.

And they smote him on the cheeks.

But when the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify, crucify him. Pilate saith to them, Take ye him and crucify him; for I find no fault in him.

And they took Jesus and led him away. And he bearing his cross, went forth to the place, called the place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha:

Where they crucified him, and two others with him, one on each side, and Jesus in the midst.
