John 17:11-19
New American Standard Bible 1995
11 I am no longer in the world; and yet (A)they themselves are in the world, and (B)I come to You. (C)Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name (D)which You have given Me, that (E)they may be one even 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 but (H)the [a]son of perdition, so that the (I)Scripture would be fulfilled.
The Disciples in the World
13 But now (J)I come 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, even as I am not of the world. 15 I do not ask You to take them out of the world, but to keep them [b]from [c](O)the evil one. 16 (P)They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 17 (Q)Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth. 18 As (R)You sent Me into the world, (S)I also have sent them into the world. 19 For their sakes I (T)sanctify Myself, that they themselves also may be (U)sanctified (V)in truth.
