Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.
- A 11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
- B 12a But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not,
- C 12b seeth the wolf coming,
- D 12c and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth:
- C' 12d and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
- B' 13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
- A' 14-15 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
- A 16a And other sheep I have,
- B 16b which are not of this fold:
- C 16c them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice;
- B' 16d and there shall be one fold,
- A' 16e and one shepherd.
- A 17a Therefore doth my Father love me,
- B 17b because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
- C 18a No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself.
- B' 18b I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again.
- A' 18c This commandment have I received of my Father.
