John 10:7-14

7So Jesus said to them again, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am 1the door of the sheep. 8All who came before Me are 2thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. 9 3I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. 10The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they 4may have life, and 5have it abundantly.

11“6I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd 7lays down His life for the sheep. 12He who is a hired hand, and not a 8shepherd, who is not the owner of the sheep, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. 13He flees because he is a hired hand and is not concerned about the sheep. 14 9I am the good shepherd, and 10I know My own and My own know Me,
