* "
I am the good shepherd .
The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep .
*
But a hireling ,
he who is not the shepherd ,
one who does not own the sheep ,
sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees ;
and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them .
*
The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care about the sheep .
*
I am the good shepherd ;
and I know My sheep ,
and am known by My own .
*
As the Father knows Me ,
even so I know the Father ;
and I lay down My life for the sheep .
*
And other sheep I have which are not of this fold ;
them also I must bring ,
and they will hear My voice ;
and there will be one flock and one shepherd .
* "
Therefore My Father loves Me ,
because I lay down My life that I may take it again .
*
No one takes it from Me ,
but I lay it down of Myself .
I have power to lay it down ,
and I have power to take it again .
This command I have received from My Father ."
*
Therefore there was a division again among the Jews because of these sayings .
*
And many of them said , "
He has a demon and is mad .
Why do you listen to Him ?"
*
Others said , "
These are not the words of one who has a demon .
Can a demon open the eyes of the blind ?"
