12 And the shepherd is not as a hireling, whose own the sheep are not, who seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth; and the wolf catcheth the sheep and scattereth them.
13 For I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
14 But he who is a hireling fleeth, because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16 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.
17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
18 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.

22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.
