John 10:11-18 (New Living Translation)
11
"I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
12
A hired hand will run when he sees a wolf coming. He will leave the sheep because they aren't his and he isn't their shepherd. And so the wolf attacks them and scatters the flock.
13
The hired hand runs away because he is merely hired and has no real concern for the sheep.
14
"I am the good shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me,
15
just as my Father knows me and I know the Father. And I lay down my life for the sheep.
16
I have other sheep, too, that are not in this sheepfold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice; and there will be one flock with one shepherd.
17
"The Father loves me because I lay down my life that I may have it back again.
18
No one can take my life from me. I lay down my life voluntarily. For I have the right to lay it down when I want to and also the power to take it again. For my Father has given me this command."
