"Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber;
2
but he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
3
To him the gatekeeper opens; the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
4
When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.
5
A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers."
6
This figure Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.
7
So Jesus again said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
8
All who came before me are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not heed them.
9
I am the door; if any one enters by me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.
10
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.
11
I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
12
He who is a hireling and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf snatches them and scatters them.
13
He flees because he is a hireling and cares nothing for the sheep.
14
I am the good shepherd; I know my own and my own know me,
15
as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16
And I have other sheep, that are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will heed my voice. So there shall be one flock, one shepherd.
17
For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
18
No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again; this charge I have received from my Father."
