John 15:13

English Standard Version 2016

Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.

See the chapter Copy

I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.

“I tell you, my friends, do not fear those who kill the body, and after that have nothing more that they can do.

And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.

By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
