|But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
|But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
|
|The hired worker is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. When he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and flees, so the wolf attacks the sheep, snatching some up, and scattering the rest.

|The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
|The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
|
|''The hired worker flees'' ''Italic text''because he is being paid a wage, and doesn't really care about the sheep.
|
|The italics clause is found only in the Byzantine tradition, and was probably added later to clarify this sentence.
