Jesus Prays for His Disciples
6 I have revealed Your name to the men You gave Me from the world. They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.
7
Now they know that all things You have given to Me are from You,
8
because the words that You gave Me, I have given them. They have received them and have known for certain that I came from You. They have believed that You sent Me.
9
I pray for them. I am not praying for the world but for those You have given Me, because they are Yours.
10
All My things are Yours, and Yours are Mine, and I have been glorified in them.
11
I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, protect them by Your name that You have given Me, so that they may be one as We are one.
12
While I was with them, I was protecting them by Your name that You have given Me. I guarded them and not one of them is lost, except the son of destruction, so that the Scripture may be fulfilled.
13
Now I am coming to You, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have My joy completed in them.
14
I have given them Your word. The world hated them because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world.
15
I am not praying that You take them out of the world but that You protect them from the evil one.
16
They are not of the world, as I am not of the world.
17
Sanctify them by the truth; Your word is truth.
18
As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
19
I sanctify Myself for them, so they also may be sanctified by the truth.
