John 17:12-14

New Catholic Bible

¹² While I was with them
I protected them by your name
that you have given me,
and I kept them safe.
Not one of them was lost,
except the one destined to be lost,^[a]
so that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
¹³ “Now I am coming to you,
and I say these things
while I am still in the world
so that my joy may come
to full measure in them.
¹⁴ I have given them your word,
and the world has hated them
because they do not belong to the world
any more than I belong to the world.
