*
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 .
*
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 .
*
But now I am coming to thee ;
and these things I speak in the world ,
that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves .
*
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 .
*
I do not pray that thou shouldst take them out of the world ,
but that thou shouldst keep them from the evil one .
*
They are not of the world ,
even as I am not of the world .
*
Sanctify them in the truth ;
thy word is truth .
*
As thou didst send me into the world ,
so I have sent them into the world .
*
And for their sake I consecrate myself ,
that they also may be consecrated in truth .
* "
I do not pray for these only ,
but also for those who believe in me through their word ,
*
that they may all be one ;
even as thou ,
Father ,
art in me ,
and I in thee ,
that they also may be in us ,
so that the world may believe that thou hast sent me .
