As thou didst send me into the world, I also sent them into the world: and I sanctify myself in their behalf, in order that they may also be sanctified through the truth. And I not only pray for these, but also for those believing on me through their word; that they may all be one, as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us; that the world may believe that thou didst send me.

Father, that which thou hast given unto me, I wish that they may also be with me, where I am, in order that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given unto me: because thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.
