5 But they will never follow a stranger. They will run away from him because they don’t know his voice.”
6 Jesus told the people this story, but they did not understand what it meant.
7 So Jesus said again, “I tell you the truth, I am the door for the sheep.
8 All the people who came before me were thieves and robbers. The sheep did not listen to them.
9 I am the door, and the person who enters through me will be saved and will be able to come in and go out and find pasture.
10 A thief comes to steal and kill and destroy, but I came to give life—life in all its fullness.
11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.
