Exegesis
The relative phrase hōn dedōkas moi {ὧν δέδωκάς μοι | hôn dédōkás moi} ‘whom You have given to Me’ centers the Father’s prior gift, with dedōkas {δέδωκάς | dédōkás} in the perfect tense presenting a completed act whose result still stands.
In context — John 17:9
I pray for them; I do not pray for the world, but for those whom You have given to Me, because they are Yours.
