John 10:17-19

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷ The Father loves me because I choose to die for my sheep. But after I give my life like that, I will become alive again. ¹⁸ Nobody can take my life away from me. Instead, I myself can choose to die. I have authority to do that. I also have authority to become alive again. My Father has said that I must do that.’

¹⁹ Again, the Jews could not agree about these things that Jesus said.
