  • Ezek 34:11-31 : 11 For thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search for my sheep, and seek them out. 12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day. 13 And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the country. 14 I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold, and in a rich pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel. 15 I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, says the Lord GOD. 16 I will seek that which was lost, and bring back that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment. 17 And as for you, O my flock, thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, between the rams and the goats. 18 Does it seem a small thing to you to have eaten up the good pasture, but you must tread down with your feet the rest of your pastures? and to have drunk of the deep waters, but you must foul the rest with your feet? 19 And as for my flock, they eat what you have trodden with your feet; and they drink what you have fouled with your feet. 20 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD to them; Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep. 21 Because you have pushed with side and with shoulder, and pushed all the diseased with your horns, till you have scattered them abroad; 22 Therefore I will save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep. 23 And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd. 24 And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken it. 25 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods. 26 And I will make them and the places around my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in its season; there shall be showers of blessing. 27 And the tree of the field shall yield its fruit, and the earth shall yield its increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the LORD, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and delivered them out of the hand of those who used them. 28 And they shall no more be a prey to the nations, nor shall the beasts of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid. 29 And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall no more be consumed with hunger in the land, nor bear the shame of the nations any more. 30 Thus shall they know that I the LORD their God am with them, and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, says the Lord GOD. 31 And you my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, says the Lord GOD.

  • John 10:11-42 : 11 I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep. 12 But the hired hand, who is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. 13 The hired hand flees because he is a hired hand and does not care for the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd, and I know my sheep, and am known by my own. 15 As the Father knows me, even so 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; I must bring them also, and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd. 17 Therefore my 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 power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment I have received from my Father. 19 Therefore there was a division again among the Jews because of these words. 20 And many of them said, He has a demon and is mad; why do you listen to him? 21 Others said, These are not the words of someone who has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind? 22 And it was Jerusalem at the Feast of Dedication, and it was winter. 23 And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon's porch. 24 Then the Jews surrounded him and said to him, How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly. 25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. 26 But you do not believe because you are not of my sheep, as I said to you. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish, nor shall anyone snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of my Father's hand. 30 I and my Father are one. 31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him. 32 Jesus answered them, Many good works I have shown you from my Father; for which of these works do you stone me? 33 The Jews answered him, saying, We do not stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy, because you, being a man, make yourself God. 34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, You are gods? 35 If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken, 36 Do you say of him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, You blaspheme, because I said, I am the Son of God? 37 If I do not do the works of my Father, do not believe me. 38 But if I do, though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and I in him. 39 Therefore they sought again to seize him, but he escaped out of their hand. 40 And he went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was first baptizing, and there he stayed. 41 And many came to him and said, John did no miracle, but all the things that John spoke about this man were true. 42 And many believed in him there.
