被野獸撕裂的，我沒有給你帶回來，都是由我自己賠償；無論白天偷去的，或是黑夜偷的，你都要我負責。我白天受盡炎熱，黑夜受盡寒霜，不能入睡；我經常是這樣。

我指著我的永生起誓，我的羊因沒有牧人，就成了獵物，作了田野一切走獸的食物。我的眾牧者不尋找我的羊；他們只顧牧養自己，卻不牧養我的羊。這是主耶和華的宣告。

大衛對掃羅說：“你僕人是為父親放羊的，有時獅子或熊來了，從羊群中抓去一隻小羊，我就出去追趕牠，擊打牠，從牠的嘴裡把小羊救出來。如果牠起來攻擊我，我就揪住牠的鬍鬚，擊打牠，把牠殺死。

所有在我以先來的，都是賊和強盜；羊卻不聽從他們。我就是門，如果有人藉著我進來，就必定得救，並且可以出、可以入，也可以找到草場。賊來了，不過是要偷竊、殺害、毀壞；我來了，是要使羊得生命，並且得的更豐盛。我是好牧人，好牧人為羊捨命。那作雇工不是牧人的，羊也不是自己的，他一見狼來，就把羊撇下逃跑，狼就抓住羊群，把他們驅散了；

他揀選了自己的僕人大衛，把他從羊圈中召出來；他領他出來，使他不再跟著那些母羊，卻要牧養他的子民雅各，和他的產業以色列。
