John 10:11

In context

9I am the gate. Whoever enters through me will be saved; he will come in and go out, and he will find pasture. 10The thief comes only to steal, to slaughter, and to destroy. I have come so that they may have life, and have it in abundance. 11I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12The hired hand, who is no shepherd and does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming, abandons the sheep and runs — and the wolf seizes them and scatters them. 13He runs because he is a hired hand, and the sheep mean nothing to him.
