Exegesis

The object phrase sou to onoma {σου τὸ ὄνομα | sou to onoma} places the possessive pronoun before the article and noun, stressing that the revealed name belongs to the one addressed.

The coordinating kai ton logon sou tetērēkan {καὶ τὸν λόγον σου τετήρηκαν | kai ton logon sou tetērēkan} closes the sentence with a perfect tense that presents their keeping as an action with continuing results. The syntax therefore moves in a carefully linked sequence from revelation, to identification of the recipients, to prior ownership, to transfer, and finally to enduring fidelity.

In contextJohn 17:6

I have made Your name known to the people whom You gave Me out of the world ; they were Yours, and You gave them to Me, and they have guarded Your word.
