10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd layeth down his life for the sheep. 10:12 He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholdeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf snatcheth them, and scattereth `them': 10:13 `he fleeth' because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep. 10:14 I am the good shepherd; and I know mine own, and mine own know me, 10:15 even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
