John 17:9 in Context — John 17

7 Ahora han conocido que todas las cosas que me diste, son de ti;

8 Porque las palabras que me diste, les he dado; y ellos [las] recibieron, y han conocido verdaderamente que salí de ti, y han creído que tú me enviaste.

9 Yo ruego por ellos: no ruego por el mundo, sino por los que me diste; porque tuyos son:

10 Y todas mis cosas son tus cosas, y tus cosas son mis cosas: y he sido glorificado en ellas.

11 Y ya no estoy en el mundo; mas éstos están en el mundo, y yo á ti vengo. Padre santo, á los que me has dado, guárdalos por tu nombre, para que sean una cosa, como también nosotros.
