15. just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16. And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd.
17. For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again.
18. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from my Father.”
