e; and they have kept thy word. (7)Now they
know that all things whatever thou hast given me are from thee;
(8)because the words which thou gayest me I have given to them, and
they received them, and knew in truth that I came forth from thee, and
believed that thou didst send me. (9)I pray for them; I pray not for
the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; because they are
thine. (10)And all things that are mine are thine, and thine are mine;
and I am glorified in them.
(11)And I am no longer in the world; and these are in the world, and I
come to thee. Holy Father, keep those in thy name whom thou hast given
me, that they may be one, as we are, (12)While I was with them, I kept
them in thy name. Those whom thou hast given me I watched over and
none of them perished, except the son of perdition, that the scripture
might be fulfilled. (13)And now I come to thee; and these things I
speak in the world, that they may have my joy made full in them. (14)I
have given them thy word; and the world hated them, because they are
not of the world, as I am not of the world. (15)I pray not that thou
shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep
them from the evil. (16)They are not of the world, as I am not of the
world. (17)Sanctify them in the truth; thy word is truth. (18)As thou
didst send me into the world, I also sent them into the world. (19)And
for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified in
the truth. (20)And I pray not for these only, but also for those who
believe on me through their word; (21)that all may be one; as thou,
Father, in me and I in thee, that they also may be in us; that the
world may believe that thou didst send me. (22)And the glory which
thou hast given to me I have given to them, that they may be one, as
we are one; (23)I in them, and thou in me, that they may be perfected
into one; that the world may know that thou didst send me, and lovedst
them as thou lovedst me.
(24)Father, those whom thou hast given me, I will that where I am they
also be with me; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given
me; because thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
(25)Righteous Father! And the world knew thee not! But I knew thee,
and these knew that thou didst send me; (26)and I made known to them
thy name, and will make it known; that the love wherewith thou lovedst
me may be in them, and I in them.
