John 17:11-21

11I 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.

12While 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.

13Now I am coming to you, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy completed in them.

14I have given them your word. The world hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

15I am not praying that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.

16They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

17Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.

18As you sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.

19I sanctify myself for them, so that they also may be sanctified by the truth.

20“I pray not only for these, but also for those who believe in me through their word.

21May they all be one, as you, Father, are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us, so that the world may believe you sent me.
