²⁹ My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

² As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.

²⁸ Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.

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

⁶ I 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.
