Jesus Said
The good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.
The hireling flees because he is a hireling,
sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep.
I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.
The hireling flees because he is a hireling.
Whoever desires to save his life will lose it.
I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you
as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings.
Whoever desires to save his life will lose it.
Bad fruit will be chopped down and burned.
As a hen gathers her chicks under her wings,
her rooster crows: You will deny me.
Bad fruit will be chopped down and burned.
But if the salt loses the taste of salt,
the rooster crows. You will deny me
if you do whatever I command you.
But if the salt loses the taste of salt,
everyone will be seasoned with fire.
If you do whatever I command you,
cast out demons you have received.
Everyone will be seasoned with fire.
I am the true vine, and my Father
cast out demons. You have received
my body which is broken for you.
I am the true vine. And my Father
sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep
my body, which is broken for you.
The good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.
