John 17:11-16
New American Standard Bible
11 I am no longer going to be in the world; and yet (A)they themselves are in the world, and (B)I am coming to You. (C)Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name (D)which You have given Me, so that (E)they may be one just as We are. 12 While I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name, (F)which You have given Me; and I guarded them, and (G)not one of them perished except (H)the [a]son of destruction, so that the (I)Scripture would be fulfilled.
The Disciples in the World
13 But now (J)I am coming to You; and (K)these things I speak in the world so that they may have My (L)joy made full in themselves. 14 I have given them Your word; and (M)the world has hated them because (N)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](O)the evil one. 16 (P)They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
