WK Translation Notes

a
The T. R. has "I am known of mine." Here it is in the mutual knowledge of the Shepherd and the sheep that His goodness is shown. This mutuality of knowledge disappears almost entirely in the KJV through the addition of a full stop between verses 14, 15, and the consequent mistranslation of the earlier clause of verse 15.
