17:6I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.

17:7Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.

17:9I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.

17:10And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.

17:11And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

17:12While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

17:13And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

17:14I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

17:15I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
