John 17:14-19

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.
