John 17:7-18 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

7. Now they know that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are from thee:

8. for the words which thou gavest me I have given unto them; and they received them, and knew of a truth that I came forth from thee, and they believed that thou didst send me.

9. I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine:

10. and all things that are mine are thine, and thine are mine: and I am glorified in them.

11. And I am no more in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are.

12. While I was with them, I kept them in thy name which thou hast given me: and I guarded them, and not one of them perished, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

13. But now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

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

15. I pray not that thou shouldest take them from the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil one.

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

17. Sanctify them in the truth: thy word is truth.

18. As thou didst send me into the world, even so sent I them into the world.
