Jesus the Good Shepherd

 

John 10:1-21

1 Verily, verily I say unto you, He that entereth not in by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up another way, he is a thief and a robber.

2 But he that goeth in by the door, is the shepherd of the sheep.

3 To him the porter openeth, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.

4 And when he hath sent forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.

5 And they will not follow a stranger, but they flee from him, for they know not the voice of strangers.

6 This parable spake Jesus unto them, but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.

7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.

8 All that ever came before me, are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.

9 I am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in, and go out, and find pasture.

10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy; I am come that they might have life, and have it in abundance.

11 I am that good shepherd; that good shepherd giveth his life for his sheep.

12 But a hireling, and he which is not the shepherd, neither the sheep are his own, seeth the wolf coming, and he leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.

13 So the hireling fleeth, because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

14 I am the good shepherd, and know mine, and am known of mine.

15 As the Father knoweth me, so know I the Father; and I lay down my life for my sheep.

16 Other sheep I have also, which are not of this fold; them also must I bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one sheepfold, and one shepherd.

17 Therefore doeth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.

18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

19 Then there was a dissension again among the Jews for these sayings,

20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad. Why hear ye him?

21 Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can the devil open the eyes of the blind?
