5 They will never follow a stranger, but will run away from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.”
6 Yeshua told them this parable, but they did not understand what He was telling them.
7 So Yeshua said again, “Amen, amen I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep.
8 All those who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.
9 I am the gate! If anyone comes in through Me, he will be saved. He will come and go and find pasture.
10 The thief comes only to steal, slaughter, and destroy. I have come that they might have life, and have it abundantly!
11 “I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.
