New Testament

John 10:8-16 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

8. all, as many as came before me, are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them;

9. I am the door, through me if any one may come in, he shall be saved, and he shall come in, and go out, and find pasture.

10. `The thief doth not come, except that he may steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they may have life, and may have [it] abundantly.

11. `I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd his life layeth down for the sheep;

12. and the hireling, and not being a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, doth behold the wolf coming, and doth leave the sheep, and doth flee; and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep;

13. and the hireling doth flee because he is an hireling, and is not caring for the sheep.

14. `I am the good shepherd, and I know my [sheep], and am known by mine,

15. according as the Father doth know me, and I know the Father, and my life I lay down for the sheep,

16. and other sheep I have that are not of this fold, these also it behoveth me to bring, and my voice they will hear, and there shall become one flock--one shepherd.
