12. While I was with them, I kept them safe by the power of your name, the name you gave me. I protected them, and not one of them was lost, except the man who was bound to be lost — so that the scripture might come true.
13. And now I am coming to you, and I say these things in the world so that they might have my joy in their hearts in all its fullness.
14. I gave them your message, and the world hated them, because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world.
15. I do not ask you to take them out of the world, but I do ask you to keep them safe from the Evil One.
16. Just as I do not belong to the world, they do not belong to the world.
17. Dedicate them to yourself by means of the truth; your word is truth.
18. I sent them into the world, just as you sent me into the world.
19. And for their sake I dedicate myself to you, in order that they, too, may be truly dedicated to you.
