Share in her great joy,

Ezekiel 39:21

John 17:24

17:24 “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, ³  so that they can see my glory that you gave me because you loved me before the creation of the world ⁴ .

John 17:2

17:2 just as you have given him authority over all humanity, ⁵  so that he may give eternal life to everyone you have given him. ⁶ 

Colossians 4:4-6

4:4 Pray that I may make it known as I should. ⁷  4:5 Conduct yourselves ⁸  with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunities. 4:6 Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer everyone.

¹ tn Or “my glory.”

² tn Heb “my hand which I have placed.”

³ tn Grk “the ones you have given me, I want these to be where I am with me.”

⁴ tn Grk “before the foundation of the world.”

⁵ tn Or “all people”; Grk “all flesh.”

⁶ tn Grk “so that to everyone whom you have given to him, he may give to them eternal life.”

⁷ tn The phrase begins with the ἵνα (Jina) clause and is subordinate to the imperative προσκαρτερεῖτε (proskartereite) in v. 2. The reference to the idea that Paul must make it known indicates that this clause is probably best viewed as purpose and not content, like the ἵνα of v. 3. It is the second purpose stated in the context; the first is expressed through the infinitive λαλῆσαι (lalhsai) in v. 3. The term “pray” at the beginning of the sentence is intended to pick up the imperative of v. 3.

⁸ tn Grk “walk.” The verb περιπατέω (peripatew) is a common NT idiom for one’s lifestyle, behavior, or manner of conduct (L&N 41.11).
