How do we reconcile God giving His glory to no other (Isa 42:8) with Jesus giving His/the Father's glory to believers (John 17:22)?

For reference, here are the verses in question:
Isaiah 42:8
>I am the LORD; that is my name; my glory I give to no other, nor my praise to carved idols.
John 17:22
>The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one,
Is there a difference between God's glory and the glory that Jesus gives? In Isaiah, does God mean that He gives His glory to no god/idol? How should these two passages be seen given the rest of Scripture?
