169 Let my complaint come before thee, O Lord,
and give me understanding according unto thy
word.
170 Let my supplication come before thee, and
deliver me according to thy promise.
171 My lips shall speak praise, when thou hast
taught me thy statutes.
172 My tongue shall entreat of thy word: for all
thy commandments are righteous.
173 Let thine hand help me: for I have chosen thy
precepts.
174 I have longed for thy salvation, O Lord, and
thy Law is my delight.
175 Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee, and
thy 1judgments shall help me.
176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep: seek thy
servant, for I do not forget thy commandments. (a)
(a) Verse 176
John 10:1 - 16
1 Verily, verily I say unto you, He that entereth
not in by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth
up another way, he is a thief and a robber.
2 But he that goeth in by the door, is the shepherd
of the sheep.
3 To him the porter openeth, and the sheep hear
his voice, and he calleth his own sheep by name, and
leadeth them out.
4 And when he hath sent forth his own sheep,
he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for
they know his voice.
5 And they will not follow a stranger, but they
flee from him: for they know not the voice of
strangers.
6 This 1parable spake Jesus unto them: but they
understood not what things they were which he
spake unto them.
7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily
I say unto you, I am that door of the sheep.
8 All that ever came before me, are thieves and
robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9 I am that door: by me if any man enter in, he
shall be saved, and shall go in, and go out, and find
pasture.
10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to
kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have
life, and have it in abundance.
11 I am that good shepherd: that good shepherd
giveth his life for his sheep.
12 But an hireling, and he which is not the shepherd,
neither the sheep are his own, seeth the wolf
coming, and he leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and
the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
13 So the hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling,
and careth not for the sheep.
14 I am that good shepherd, and know mine, and
am known of mine.
15 As the Father knoweth me, so know I the
Father: and I lay down my life for my sheep.
16 Other sheep I have also, which fold:
them also must I bring, and they shall hear
my voice: and there shall be one sheepfold, and
one shepherd.
