Jesus Prays for His Disciples

(A)I have manifested Your name to the men whom (B)You gave Me out of the world; they were (C)Yours and You gave them to Me, and they have (D)kept Your word. Now they have come to know that everything You have given Me is from You; for (E)the words which You gave Me (F)I have given to them; and they received them and truly understood that (G)I came forth from You, and they believed that (H)You sent Me. (I)I ask on their behalf; (J)I do not ask on behalf of the world but of those whom (K)You have given Me; for (L)they are Yours; 10 and (M)all things that are Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine; and I have been glorified in them. 11 And I am no longer in the world; and yet (N)they themselves are in the world, and (O)I come to You. (P)Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name (Q)which You have given Me, that (R)they may be one even as We are. 12 While I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name (S)which You have given Me; and I guarded them and (T)not one of them perished but (U)the [a]son of perdition, so that the (V)Scripture would be fulfilled. 13 But now (W)I come to You; and (X)these things I speak in the world so that they may have My (Y)joy made full in themselves. 14 I have given them Your word; and (Z)the world has hated them, because (AA)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](AB)the evil one. 16 (AC)They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 17 (AD)Sanctify them by the truth; Your word is truth. 18 As (AE)You sent Me into the world, (AF)I also sent them into the world. 19 For their sake I (AG)sanctify Myself, that they themselves also may be (AH)sanctified (AI)in truth.

Jesus Prays for His Disciples

(A)“I have [a]manifested Your name to the men (B)whom You have given Me out of the world. (C)They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word. Now they have known that all things which You have given Me are from You. For I have given to them the words (D)which You have given Me; and they have received them, (E)and have known surely that I came forth from You; and they have believed that (F)You sent Me.

“I pray for them. (G)I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours. 10 And all Mine are Yours, and (H)Yours are Mine, and I am glorified in them. 11 (I)Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, (J)keep[b] through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one (K)as We are. 12 While I was with them [c]in the world, (L)I kept them in [d]Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and (M)none of them is [e]lost (N)except the son of [f]perdition, (O)that the Scripture might be fulfilled. 13 But now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves. 14 I have given them Your word; (P)and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, (Q)just as I am not of the world. 15 I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but (R)that You should keep them from the evil one. 16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 17 (S)Sanctify[g] them by Your truth. (T)Your word is truth. 18 (U)As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. 19 And (V)for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth.
