11. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd layeth down his life for the sheep.
12. He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholdeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf snatcheth them, and scattereth them:
13. he fleeth because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
14. I am the good shepherd; and I know mine own, and mine own know me,
15. even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16. And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice: and they shall become one flock, one shepherd.
17. Therefore doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
