15 I’m not asking that you take them out of this world but that you keep them safe from the evil one.
16 They don’t belong to this world, just as I don’t belong to this world.
17 Make them holy in the truth; your word is truth.
18 As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.
19 I made myself holy on their behalf so that they also would be made holy in the truth.
20 “I’m not praying only for them but also for those who believe in me because of their word.
21 I pray they will be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. I pray that they also will be in us, so that the world will believe that you sent me.
