Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.
As the Father knows me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
