nsb@John:17:7 @ »Now they know that all things you gave me are from you.

nsb@John:17:8 @ »I gave them the words that you gave me. They understood them and knew I came from you. They believed you sent me.

nsb@John:17:9 @ »I pray for them. I do not pray for the world. I pray only for those you gave me, for they are yours.

nsb@John:17:10 @ »All things that are mine are yours, and yours are mine and I am glorified in them.

nsb@John:17:12 @ »While I was with them I kept them in your name, which you have given to me. I guarded them, and not one of them perished, except the son of perdition; that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
