King James Bible 2016
New Testament
| 17:1 | Jesus spoke these words, and lifted up His eyes to heaven, saying: "Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You," |
| 17:2 | as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him." |
| 17:3 | And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." |
| 17:4 | I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do." |
| 17:5 | And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was." |
| 17:6 | "I have manifested Your name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word." |
| 17:7 | Now they have known that all things which You have given Me are from You." |
| 17:8 | Because, I have given to them the words which You have given Me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came forth from You; and they have believed that You sent Me." |
| 17:9 | "I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, because they are Yours." |
| 17:10 | And all Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine, and I am glorified in them." |
| 17:11 | and now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your own name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are." |
| 17:12 | While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled." |
| 17:13 | But now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves." |
| 17:14 | I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world." |
| 17:15 | I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil." |
| 17:16 | They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world." |
| 17:17 | Sanctify them through Your truth. Your word is truth." |
| 17:18 | Just as You have sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world." |
| 17:19 | And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified through the truth." |
| 17:20 | "I do not pray for these only, but also for those who will believe on Me through their word;" |
| 17:21 | that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You have sent Me." |
| 17:22 | And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one:" |
| 17:23 | I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me." |
| 17:24 | "Father, I desire that they also whom You have given Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; because You loved Me before the foundation of the world." |
| 17:25 | O righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me." |
| 17:26 | And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them." |
King James Bible 2016
Unlike most other modern versions, this Bible's text is based upon the same Hebrew Masoretic Text, and Greek Textus Receptus, of the King James Version of 1611.
In non Textus Receptus versions, the issue of having the best underlying manuscripts, is often overshadowed by the massive amount of omissions in the text. Because the KJV 2016 is not dealing with issues of omission and addition, the focus has been upon definition, and the KJV translators choices have been used as the benchmark.
One issue not often majored upon in the bible version debate is simply the way Greek words are defined. Many times, the NKJV leans upon the definition choices of modern versions as well as defaulting to Vines and Strong's definitions, which are almost always favorable to the Revised Version. In other words, one may have a correct text to translate from, but use erroneous modern version/modern dictionary definitions which change or distort the meaning of the words. Jay Green was accused of having a good TR bible but with "Alexandrian readings".
The KJV 2016 Edition rejects such erroneous modern definitions and restores the distinctness of historical KJV readings. The NKJV also tended to gravitate toward KJV marginal notes, which are in truth, rejected readings, and also toward Geneva Bible definitions, which the KJV had already cleared up.
