8
As many as have come, were night thieves and day thieves, but the sheep heard not them. [All how many ever came before me, be night thieves and day thieves, but the sheep heard not them.]
9
I am the door. If any man shall enter by me, he shall be saved; and he shall go in, and shall go out, and he shall find pastures.
10
A night thief cometh not, but that he steal, slay, and destroy; and I came, that they have life, and have more plenteously. [A night thief cometh not, but that he steal, and slay, and lose; I came, that they have life, and have more plenteously.]
11
I am a good shepherd; a good shepherd giveth his life for his sheep.
12
But an hired hind, and that is not the shepherd, whose be not the sheep his own [whose the sheep be not his own], seeth a wolf coming, and he leaveth the sheep, and fleeth; and the wolf snatcheth, and scattereth the sheep.
13
And the hired hind fleeth, for he is an hired hind, and it pertaineth not to him of the sheep.
14
I am a good shepherd, and I know my sheep, and my sheep know me.
15
As the Father hath known me, I know the Father; and I put my life for my sheep.
16
[And] I have other sheep, that be not of this fold, and it behooveth me to bring them together, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be made one fold and one shepherd.
17
Therefore the Father loveth me, for I put my life, that again I take it.
18
No man taketh it from me, but I put it of myself. I have power to put it, and I have power to take it again. This commandment I have taken of my Father.
