⁷ So Jesus said again, Truly I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

⁶ Jesus said to him, I am the true and living way: no one comes to the Father but by me.

¹⁸ Because through him the two of us are able to come near in one Spirit to the Father.

⁹ I am the door: if any man goes in through me he will have salvation, and will go in and go out, and will get food.

¹ Truly I say to you, He who does not go through the door into the place where the sheep are kept, but gets in by some other way, is a thief and an outlaw.

¹⁹ So then, my brothers, being able to go into the holy place without fear, because of the blood of Jesus,

²⁰ By the new and living way which he made open for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

²¹ And having a great priest over the house of God,

²² Let us go in with true hearts, in certain faith, having our hearts made free from the sense of sin and our bodies washed with clean water:

⁴ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if one of them gets loose and goes away, will not let the ninety-nine be in the waste land by themselves, and go after the wandering one, till he sees where it is?

⁵ And when he has got it again, he takes it in his arms with joy.

⁶ And when he gets back to his house, he sends for his neighbours and friends, saying to them, Be glad with me, for I have got back my sheep which had gone away.

³ Be certain that the Lord is God; it is he who has made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep to whom he gives food.

⁷ For he is our God; and we are the people to whom he gives food, and the sheep of his flock. Today, if you would only give ear to his voice!

¹³ So we your people, and the sheep of your flock, will give you glory for ever: we will go on praising you through all generations.

³¹ And you are my sheep, the sheep of my grass-lands, and I am your God, says the Lord.

⁶ We all went wandering like sheep; going every one of us after his desire; and the Lord put on him the punishment of us all.
