6
This proverb Jesus spoke to them. But they understood not what he spoke.
7
Jesus therefore said to them again: Amen, amen, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
8
All others, as many as have come, are thieves and robbers: and the sheep heard them not.
9
I am the door. By me, if any man enter in, he shall be saved: and he shall go in and go out, and shall find pastures.
10
The thief cometh not, but for to steal and to kill and to destroy. I am come that they may have life and may have it more abundantly.
11
I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd giveth his life for his sheep.
12
But the hireling and he that is not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming and leaveth the sheep and flieth: and the wolf casteth and scattereth the sheep,
13
And the hireling flieth, because he is a hireling: and he hath no care for the sheep.
14
I am the good shepherd: and I know mine, and mine know me.
15
As the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father: and I lay down my life for my sheep.
16
And other sheep I have that are not of this fold: them also I must bring. And they shall hear my voice: And there shall be one fold and one shepherd.
