John 10:11-14

New Catholic Bible

¹¹ “I am the good shepherd.
The good shepherd
lays down his life for the sheep.
¹² The hired hand,
who is not the shepherd
nor the owner of the sheep,
sees the wolf approaching,
and he leaves the sheep and runs away,

and he has no concern for the sheep.
¹⁴ “I am the good shepherd.
I know my own,
and my own know me,
