John 17:9-22

New American Standard Bible

^9 (A)I ask on their behalf; ^(B)I do not ask on behalf of the world, but on the behalf of those whom ^(C)You have given Me, because ^(D)they are Yours; ¹⁰ and ^(E)all things that are Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine; and I have been glorified in them. ¹¹ I am no longer going to be in the world; and yet ^(F)they themselves are in the world, and ^(G)I am coming to You. ^(H)Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name ^(I)which You have given Me, so that ^(J)they may be one just as We are. ¹² While I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name, ^(K)which You have given Me; and I guarded them, and ^(L)not one of them perished except ^(M)the ^[a]son of destruction, so that the ^(N)Scripture would be fulfilled.

The Disciples in the World

¹³ But now ^(O)I am coming to You; and ^(P)these things I speak in the world so that they may have My ^(Q)joy made full in themselves. ¹⁴ I have given them Your word; and ^(R)the world has hated them because ^(S)they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. ¹⁵ I am not asking You to take them out of the world, but to keep them away from ^[b](T)the evil one. ^16 (U)They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. ^17 (V)Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth. ¹⁸ Just as ^(W)You sent Me into the world, ^(X)I also sent them into the world. ¹⁹ And for their sakes I ^(Y)sanctify Myself, so that they themselves also may be ^(Z)sanctified ^(AA)in truth.

²⁰ “I am not asking on behalf of these alone, but also for those who believe in Me through their word, ²¹ that they may all be one; ^(AB)just as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, ^(AC)so that the world may ^[c]believe that ^(AD)You sent Me.

Disciples’ Future Glory

²² The ^(AE)glory which You have given Me I also have given to them, so that they may be one, just as We are one;
