John 17:8-20 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

8. For I have given unto them the words which you gave me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from you, and they have believed that you did send me.

9. I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them that you have given me; for they are yours.

10. And all mine are yours and yours are mine; and I am glorified in them.

11. And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to you. Holy Father, keep through your own name those whom you have given me, that they may be one, as we are.

12. While I was with them in the world, I kept them in your name: those that you gave me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

13. And now come I to you; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

14. I have given them your word; and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

15. I pray not that you should take them out of the world, but that you should keep them from the evil.

16. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

17. Sanctify them through your truth: your word is truth.

18. As you have sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

19. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.

20. Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also who shall believe on me through their word;
