πάτερ, οὓς δέδωκάς μοι, θέλω ἵνα ὅπου εἰμὶ ἐγὼ κἀκεῖνοι ὦσιν μετ’ ἐμοῦ, ἱνα θεωρῶσιν τὴν δόξαν ἣν δέδωκάς μοι«. αὕτη ἡ μεγάλη τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν πρεσβεία, ἵν’ ὦμεν σὺν αὐτῷ ὅπου ἂν ᾖ αὐτὸς καὶ ἵνα θεωρῶμεν τὴν δόξαν τὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἵνα ἀγαπήσῃ ἡμᾶς καθὼς αὐτὸν ἠγάπησεν ὁ αὐτοῦ πατήρ, 〈καὶ〉 ὅπερ αὐτῷ ἐδωρήσατο τοῦτο δῷ καὶ ἡμῖν, καὶ τὴν δόξαν ἣν αὐτῷ ἔδωκεν ταύτην δῷ καὶ ἡμῖν· ποιῶν ἡμᾶς ἓν τοὺς πάντας, ἵνα μηκέτι ὦμεν πολλοὶ ἀλλ’ οἱ πάντες εἷς, ἑνωθέντες αὐτοῦ τῇ θεότητι καὶ τῇ δόξῃ τῆς βασιλείας, οὐ κατὰ συναλοιφὴν μιᾶς οὐσίας κατὰ δὲ τελείωσιν τῆς εἰς ἄκρον ἀρετῆς.
