11 aNow I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, bkeep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one cas We are.
12 While I was with them in the world, aI kept them in Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and bnone of them is lost cexcept the son of perdition, dthat the Scripture might be fulfilled.
13 But now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves.
14 I have given them Your word; aand the world has hated them because they are not of the world, bjust as I am not of the world.
15 I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but athat You should keep them from the evil one.
