John 17:3-13

3 "This is eternal life, that they may know You, 1the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom 2You have sent.
4 "3I glorified You on the earth, 4having accomplished the work which You have given Me to do.
5 "Now, Father, 5glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had 6with You before the world was.
6 "7I have manifested Your name to the men whom 8You gave Me out of the world; they were 9Yours and You gave them to Me, and they have 10kept Your word.
7 "Now they have come to know that everything You have given Me is from You;
8 for 11the words which You gave Me 12I have given to them; and they received them and truly understood that 13I came forth from You, and they believed that 14You sent Me.
9 "15I ask on their behalf; 16I do not ask on behalf of the world, but of those whom 17You have given Me; for 18they are Yours;
10 and 19all things that are Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine; and I have been glorified in them.
11 "I am no longer in the world; and yet 20they themselves are in the world, and 21I come to You. 22Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name 23which You have given Me, that 24they may be one even as We are.
12 "While I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name 25which You have given Me; and I guarded them and 26not one of them perished but 27the son of perdition, so that the 28Scripture would be fulfilled.

The Disciples in the World
