Uthenga

Uthenga Wopatulika Malinga ndi Yohane 10: 11-18

10:11	I am the good Shepherd. The good Shepherd gives his life for his sheep.
10:12	But the hired hand, and whoever is not a shepherd, to whom the sheep do not belong, he sees the wolf approaching, and he departs from the sheep and flees. And the wolf ravages and scatters the sheep.
10:13	And the hired hand flees, because he is a hired hand and there is no concern for the sheep within him.
10:14	I am the good Shepherd, and I know my own, and my own know me,
10:15	just as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. And I lay down my life for my sheep.
10:16	And I have other sheep that are not of this fold, and I must lead them. They shall hear my voice, and there shall be one sheepfold and one shepherd.
10:17	Pachifukwa ichi, the Father loves me: because I lay down my life, so that I may take it up again.
10:18	No one takes it away from me. M'malo mwake, I lay it down of my own accord. And I have the power to lay it down. And I have the power to take it up again. This is the commandment that I have received from my Father.”
