* The thief cometh (5736 ) not , but for to steal (5661 ), and to kill (5661 ), and to destroy (5661 ): I am come (5627 ) that they might have (5725 ) life , and that they might have (5725 ) it more abundantly . * I am (5748 ) the good shepherd : the good shepherd giveth (5719 ) his life for the sheep . * But he that is (5752 ) an hireling , and not the shepherd , whose own the sheep are (5748 ) not , seeth (5719 ) the wolf coming (5740 ), and leaveth (5719 ) the sheep , and fleeth (5719 ): and the wolf catcheth (5719 ) them , and scattereth (5719 ) the sheep . * The hireling fleeth (5719 ), because he is (5748 ) an hireling , and careth (5719 ) not for the sheep . * I am (5748 ) the good shepherd , and know (5719 ) my sheep , and am known (5743 ) of mine . * As the Father knoweth (5719 ) me , even so know (5719 ) I the Father : and I lay down (5719 ) my life for the sheep . * And other sheep I have (5719 ), which are (5748 ) not of this fold : them also I must (5748 ) bring (5629 ), and they shall hear (5692 ) my voice ; and there shall be (5695 ) one fold , and one shepherd . * Therefore doth my Father love (5719 ) me , because I lay down (5719 ) my life , that I might take (5632 ) it again . * No man taketh (5719 ) it from me , but I lay it down (5719 ) of myself . I have (5719 ) power to lay it down (5629 ), and I have (5719 ) power to take (5629 ) it again . This commandment have I received (5627 ) of my Father .
