"I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine: "
— John 17:9, American Standard Version
“I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.”
“I pray for them. I don't pray for the world, but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.”
“I am praying on behalf of them. I am not praying on behalf of the world, but on behalf of those you have given me, because they belong to you.”
“I pray for them. I pray not for the world, but for them whom thou hast given me: because they are thine.”
“My prayer is for them: my prayer is not for the world, but for those whom you have given to me, because they are yours”
“I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.”
I manifested thy name unto the men whom thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them to me; and they have kept thy word.
Now they know that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are from thee:
for the words which thou gavest me I have given unto them; and they received them, and knew of a truth that I came forth from thee, and they believed that thou didst send me.
I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine:
and all things that are mine are thine, and thine are mine: and I am glorified in them.
And I am no more in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are.
While I was with them, I kept them in thy name which thou hast given me: and I guarded them, and not one of them perished, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
