6 “You gave me some men from the world. I have shown them what you are like. Those men belonged to you, and you gave them to me. They have obeyed your teaching.
7 Now they know that everything you gave me comes from you.
8 I gave these men the teachings that you gave me. They accepted those teachings. They know that I truly came from you.
9 I pray for them now. I am not praying for the people in the world. But I am praying for those men you gave me, because they are yours.
10 All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And my glory is shown through these men.
11 Now I am coming to you. I will not stay in the world now. But these men are still in the world. Holy Father, keep them safe. Keep them safe by the power of your name (the name you gave me), so that they will be one, the same as you and I are one.
12 While I was with them, I kept them safe. I kept them safe by the power of your name—the name you gave me. I protected them. And only one of them, the one who is going to hell, was lost. He was lost so that what was said in the Scripture would happen.
