Isa 53:6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way...

John 10:11 "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep."

Luke 15:3-7 Then Jesus told them this parable: “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Does he not leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.

1Peter 2:25 For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
