John 17:13-19

English Standard Version

¹³But now ^(A)I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have ^(B)my joy fulfilled in themselves. ¹⁴^(C)I have given them your word, and ^(D)the world has hated them ^(E)because they are not of the world, ^(F)just as I am not of the world. ¹⁵I ^(G)do not ask that you ^(H)take them out of the world, but that you ^(I)keep them from ^(J)the evil one.^[a] ¹⁶^(K)They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. ¹⁷^(L)Sanctify them^[b] in the truth; ^(M)your word is truth. ¹⁸^(N)As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. ¹⁹And ^(O)for their sake ^(P)I consecrate myself,^[c] that they also ^(Q)may be sanctified^[d] in truth.
