John 17:19-23

19 And 1for their sake 2I consecrate myself,[a] that they also 3may be sanctified[b] in truth.
20 "I do not 4ask for these only, but also for those 5who will believe in me through their word,
21 6that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that 7they also may be in 8us, so that the world 9may believe that you have sent me.
22 10The glory that you have given me 11I have given to them, 12that they may be one even as we are one,
23 13I in them and you in me, 14that they may become perfectly one, 15so that the world may know that you sent me and 16loved them even as 17you loved me.
