John 17:16

17:16 They do not belong to the world ¹  just as I do not belong to the world. ² 

John 17:19

17:19 And I set myself apart ³  on their behalf, ⁴  so that they too may be truly set apart. ⁵ 

John 17:22-23

17:22 The glory ⁶  you gave to me I have given to them, that they may be one just as we are one – 17:23 I in them and you in me – that they may be completely one, ⁷  so that the world will know that you sent me, and you have loved them just as you have loved me.

John 17:26

17:26 I made known your name to them, and I will continue to make it known, ⁸  so that the love you have loved me with may be in them, and I may be in them.”

[17:16]  ¹ tn Grk “they are not of the world.” This is a repetition of the second half of v. 14. The only difference is in word order: Verse 14 has οὐκ εἰσὶν ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου (ouk eisin ek tou kosmou), while here the prepositional phrase is stated first: ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου οὐκ εἰσίν (ek tou kosmou ouk eisin). This gives additional emphasis to the idea of the prepositional phrase, i.e., origin, source, or affiliation.

[17:16]  ² tn Grk “just as I am not of the world.”

[17:19]  ³ tn Or “I sanctify.”

[17:19]  ⁴ tn Or “for their sake.”

[17:19]  ⁵ tn Or “they may be truly consecrated,” or “they may be truly sanctified.”

[17:22]  ⁶ tn Grk And the glory.” The conjunction καί (kai, “and”) has not been translated here in keeping with the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences.

[17:23]  ⁷ tn Or “completely unified.”

[17:26]  ⁸ tn The translation “will continue to make it known” is proposed by R. E. Brown (John [AB], 2:773).
