John 17: 11 - 19
|
| 11
|
And now I am no more in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name, which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are one.
|
| 12
|
While I was with them, I kept them in thy name, which thou hast given me; I have guarded them, and none of them is lost but the son of perdition, that the scripture might be fulfilled.
|
| 13
|
But now I am coming to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
|
| 14
|
I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
|
| 15
|
I do not pray that thou shouldst take them out of the world, but that thou shouldst keep them from the evil one.
|
| 16
|
They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
|
| 17
|
Sanctify them in the truth; thy word is truth.
|
| 18
|
As thou didst send me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.
|
| 19
|
And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be consecrated in truth.
