¹³ But now I am coming to you, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy made complete in themselves.^{[a] 14} I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world.^{(A) 15} I am not asking you to take them out of the world, but I ask you to protect them from the evil one.^{[b](B) 16} They do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. ¹⁷ Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. ¹⁸ As you have sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.^{(C) 19} And for their sakes I sanctify myself, so that they also may be sanctified in truth.

²⁰ “I ask not only on behalf of these but also on behalf of those who believe in me through their word, ²¹ that they may all be one. As you, Father, are in me and I am in you, may they also be in us,^[c] so that the world may believe that you have sent me.^{(D) 22} The glory that you have given me I have given them, so that they may be one, as we are one,^{(E) 23} I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one, so that the world may know that you have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. ²⁴ Father, I desire that those also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory, which you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world.^(F)
