Truly, truly do I say to you, He that entereth not through the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber; but he that entereth through the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice; and his own sheep he calleth by name, and leadeth them out. read more.
When he hath put forth all his own, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice. But a stranger they will not follow, but will flee from him; because they know not the voice of strangers. This parable Jesus spoke to them; but they did not understand what the things were which he spoke to them. Jesus therefore said, Truly, truly do I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All those who came are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door; if any one enter through me, he will be saved, and will go in and out, and find pasture. The thief cometh not but to steal, and to kill, and to destroy; I came that they might have life, and have abundance. I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. He that is a hireling and not a shepherd, nor the owner of the sheep, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth; and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep; because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and I know my sheep, and they know me, even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I give my life for the sheep. And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold; them also I must bring; and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd.

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, and keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord came to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were in great fear. And the angel said to them, Fear not; for lo! I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to the whole people; read more.
for to you hath been born this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, who is the Christ, the Lord. And this shall be the sign to you: Ye shall find a babe wrapped in swathingclothes, [lying] in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men of good will!" And it came to pass, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shepherds said one to another, Let us go at once to Bethlehem, and see that which hath come to pass, which the Lord hath made known to us. And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger. And when they had seen it, they made known abroad what had been told them concerning this child. And all who heard wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all which they had heard and seen, as had been told them.
