John 17:11-18 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

11. And though I am not in the world, these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Father most holy, preserve them in your name, those whom you have given to me, so that they may be one, even as we are one.

12. While I was with them, I preserved them in your name. I have guarded those whom you have given to me, and not one of them is lost, except the son of perdition, so that the Scripture may be fulfilled.

13. And now I am coming to you. But I am speaking these things in the world, so that they may have the fullness of my joy within themselves.

14. I have given them your word, and the world has hated them. For they are not of the world, just as I, too, am not of the world.

15. I am not praying that you would take them out of the world, but that you would preserve them from evil.

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

17. Sanctify them in truth. Your word is truth.

18. Just as you have sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
