7Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.
8For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
9I pray for them: I pray not for the world,
but for them which thou hast given me;
for they are thine.
but for them which thou hast given me;
for they are thine.
10And all mine are thine, and thine are mine;
and I am glorified in them.
and I am glorified in them.
