John 17:9-19

9 "¹I ask on their behalf; ²I do not ask on behalf of the world, but of those whom ³You have given Me; for ⁴they are Yours;

10 and ⁵all 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 ⁶they themselves are in the world, and ⁷I come to You. ⁸Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name ⁹which You have given Me, that ¹⁰they may be one even as We are.

12 "While I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name ¹¹which You have given Me; and I guarded them and ¹²not one of them perished but ¹³the son of perdition, so that the ¹⁴Scripture would be fulfilled.

The Disciples in the World

13 "But now ¹⁵I come to You; and ¹⁶these things I speak in the world so that they may have My ¹⁷joy made full in themselves.

14 "I have given them Your word; and ¹⁸the world has hated them, because ¹⁹they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

15 "I do not ask You to take them out of the world, but to keep them from ²⁰the evil one.

16 "²¹They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

17 "²²Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth.

18 "As ²³You sent Me into the world, ²⁴I also have sent them into the world.

19 "For their sakes I ²⁵sanctify Myself, that they themselves also may be ²⁶sanctified ²⁷in truth.
