I came so that they would have life, and have it abundantly The thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy niv the thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy
I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows].
