John 17:11-21

11 I'm no longer in the world, but they are in the world, even as I'm coming to you. Holy Father, watch over them in your name, the name you gave me, that they will be one just as we are one.

12 When I was with them, I watched over them in your name, the name you gave to me, and I kept them safe. None of them were lost, except the one who was destined for destruction, so that scripture would be fulfilled.

13 Now I'm coming to you and I say these things while I'm in the world so that they can share completely in my joy.

14 I gave your word to them and the world hated them, because they don't belong to this world, just as I don't belong to this world.

15 I'm not asking that you take them out of this world but that you keep them safe from the evil one.

16 They don't belong to this world, just as I don't belong to this world.

17 Make them holy in the truth; your word is truth.

18 As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.

19 I made myself holy on their behalf so that they also would be made holy in the truth.

20 “I'm not praying only for them but also for those who believe in me because of their word.

21 I pray they will be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. I pray that they also will be in us, so that the world will believe that you sent me.
