John 17:7-18

⁷Now they have known, that all things which thou hast given me, are from thee:

⁸Because the words which thou gavest me, I have given to them; and they have received them, and have known in very deed that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

⁹I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them whom thou hast given me: because they are thine:

¹⁰And all my things are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.

¹¹And now I am not in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name whom thou has given me; that they may be one, as we also are.

¹²While I was with them, I kept them in thy name. Those whom thou gavest me have I kept; and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition, that the scripture may be fulfilled.

¹³And now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy filled in themselves.

¹⁴I have given them thy word, and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world; as I also am not of the world.

¹⁵I pray not that thou shouldst take them out of the world, but that thou shouldst keep them from evil.

¹⁶They are not of the world, as I also am not of the world.

¹⁷Sanctify them in truth. Thy word is truth.

¹⁸As thou hast sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
