Be Given In Exchange
I am the good
shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. But he that is an hireling, and
not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the
sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. The hireling
fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. I am the good shepherd,
and know my sheep, and am known of mine. As the Father knoweth me, even so know I
the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. And other sheep I have, which are not of
this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one
fold, and one shepherd. Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my
life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I
have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I
received of my Father.
John 10:11-18 (KJV)
