John 10:16 DBY

¹⁴  I am the good shepherd; and I know those that are mine, and am known of those that are mine,

¹⁵  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 which are not of this fold: those also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one flock, one shepherd.

¹⁷  On this account the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it again.

¹⁸  No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down and I have authority to take it again. I have received this commandment of my Father.
