Exegesis
The impersonal verb mélei {μέλει | mé-lei} ’care, matter’, negated by ou {οὐ | ou} ’not’, conveys absence of caring, with the dative autō {αὐτῷ | au-tō} ’to him’ marking the indifferent person and the prepositional phrase peri tôn probátōn {περὶ τῶν προβάτων | pe-rí tōn pro-bá-tōn} ’concerning the sheep’ specifying the scope of that indifference. English requires supplying the main verb and using idiomatic renditions of impersonal constructions.
In context — John 10:13
He flees because he is a hired hand , and the sheep do not matter to him.
