John 17:9-19
New King James Version
9 “I pray for them. (A)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 (B)Yours are Mine, and I am glorified in them. 11 (C)Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, (D)keep[a] through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one (E)as We are. 12 While I was with them [b]in the world, (F)I kept them in [c]Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and (G)none of them is [d]lost (H)except the son of [e]perdition, (I)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; (J)and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, (K)just as I am not of the world. 15 I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but (L)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 (M)Sanctify[f] them by Your truth. (N)Your word is truth. 18 (O)As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. 19 And (P)for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth.
