“ I will search for the lost. I will bring back those who have wandered away. I will bandage the ones who are hurt. I will make the weak ones stronger. But I will destroy those who are fat and strong. I will take good care of my sheep. I will treat them fairly.”

The Lord and King says,“ I myself will search for my sheep. I will look after them.A shepherd looks after his scattered flock when he is with them. And I will look after my sheep. I will save them from all the places where they were scattered on a dark and cloudy day.

“ You were like sheep wandering away.”( Isaiah 53:6) But now you have returned to the Shepherd. He is the one who watches over your souls.

“ What do you think? Suppose a man owns 100 sheep and one of them wanders away. Won’t he leave the 99 sheep on the hills? Won’t he go and look for the one that wandered off?What I’m about to tell you is true. If he finds that sheep, he is happier about the one than about the 99 that didn’t wander off.It is the same with your Father in heaven. He does not want any of these little ones to die.

He said to them,“ What if one of your sheep falls into a pit on the Sabbath day? Won’t you take hold of it and lift it out?

“ My people have been like lost sheep. Their shepherds have led them astray. They have caused them to wander in the mountains. They have wandered over mountains and hills. They have forgotten that I am their true resting place.

The Son of Man came to look for the lost and save them.”

Like a lost sheep, I’ve gone down the wrong path. Come and look for me, because I haven’t forgotten to obey your commands.

“ You are my sheep. You belong to my flock. And I am your God,” announces the Lord and King.

All of us are like sheep. We have wandered away from God. All of us have turned to our own way. And the Lord has placed on his servant the sins of all of us.

They know me just as the Father knows me and I know the Father. And I give my life for the sheep.I have other sheep that do not belong to this sheep pen. I must bring them in too. They also will listen to my voice. Then there will be one flock and one shepherd.

But you do not believe, because you are not my sheep.My sheep listen to my voice. I know them, and they follow me.I give them eternal life, and they will never die. No one will steal them out of my hand.

“ My flock does not have a shepherd. Many of my sheep have been stolen. They have become food for all the wild animals. My shepherds did not care for my sheep. They did not even search for them. Instead, they only took care of themselves. And that is just as sure as I am alive,” announces the Lord and King.

He said,“ Suppose one of you has 100 sheep and loses one of them. Won’t he leave the 99 in the open country? Won’t he go and look for the one lost sheep until he finds it?When he finds it, he will joyfully put it on his shouldersand go home. Then he will call his friends and neighbors together. He will say,‘ Be joyful with me. I have found my lost sheep.’I tell you, it will be the same in heaven. There will be great joy when one sinner turns away from sin. Yes, there will be more joy than for 99 godly people who do not need to turn away from their sins.

The Lord answered him,“ You pretenders! Doesn’t each of you go to the barn and untie your ox or donkey on the Sabbath day? Then don’t you lead it out to give it water?

If you judge someone else, you have no excuse for it. When you judge another person, you are judging yourself. You do the same things you blame others for doing.
