The Holy Gospel According to John 10: 11-18

10:11I am the good Shepherd. The good Shepherd gives his life for his sheep.
10:12But 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.
10:13And the hired hand fleesbecause he is a hired hand and there is no concern for the sheep within him.
10:14I am the good Shepherd, and I know my own, and my own know me,
10:15just as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. And I lay down my life for my sheep.
10:16And 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.
10:17Ngesi sizathu, the Father loves me: because I lay down my life, so that I may take it up again.
10:18No one takes it away from me. Kunoko, 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.”
