John 17:16-24 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

16. They do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world.

17. Consecrate them in the truth. Your word is truth.

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

19. And I consecrate myself for them, so that they also may be consecrated in truth.

20. “I pray not only for them, but also for those who will believe in me through their word,

21. so that they may all be one, as you, Father, are in me and I in you, that they also may be in us, that the world may believe that you sent me.

22. And I have given them the glory you gave me, so that they may be one, as we are one,

23. I in them and you in me, that they may be brought to perfection as one, that the world may know that you sent me, and that you loved them even as you loved me.

24. Father, they are your gift to me. I wish that where I am they also may be with me, that they may see my glory that you gave me, because you loved me before the foundation of the world.
