Verily
, verily
, I say
unto
you, He
that
entereth
not by
the
door
into
the fold
of
the sheep
, but climbeth
up
some other way, the
same
is a thief and a robber.
“Truly
, truly
, I tell
you, whoever
does
not enter
the sheepfold
by
the gate
, but climbs
in
some other way, is a thief and a robber.
But he
that
entereth
in
by the door
is the shepherd of the sheep.
But the
one
who
enters
by the gate
is the shepherd of the sheep.
To
him
the porter
openeth;
and the sheep hear
his voice :
and
he calleth
his own sheep by name ,
and leadeth
them out.
The gatekeeper
opens
the
gate
for
him,
and the sheep listen
for
his voice .
He calls
his own sheep by name and leads
them out.
When he hath
put
forth
all his own, he goeth
before
them, and the
sheep follow him :
for
they know his voice.
When he has
brought
out
all his own, he goes
on
ahead
of
them, and his
sheep follow him because
they know his voice.
And
a
stranger
will
they not
follow, but
will flee from him :
for
they know
not the
voice of
strangers
.
But
they will
never
follow a
stranger;
in
fact
, they
will flee from him because
they do
not recognize
his
voice. ”
This
parable
spake
Jesus unto
them :
but they understood
not what things
they
were
which
he spake
unto
them.
Jesus spoke
to
them using
this
illustration,
but they did
not understand
what He was
telling
them.
Jesus
therefore
said unto
them again, Verily
, verily
, I say
unto
you, I am the door
of
the sheep.
So
He
said to
them again, “Truly
, truly
, I tell
you, I am the gate
for
the sheep.
All that
came before me are
thieves and robbers :
but the sheep did not hear
them.
All who
came before Me were
thieves and robbers ,
but the sheep did not listen
to
them.
I am the door;
by
me
if any
man
enter
in
, he shall
be saved ,
and
shall
go
in and go out ,
and shall
find pasture.
I am the gate.
If anyone
enters
through
Me
, he will
be saved .
He
will
come
in and go out and find pasture.
The thief cometh
not,
but
that
he
may
steal ,
and kill ,
and destroy :
I came
that they may have life, and may
have `
it '
abundantly
.
The thief comes
only
to
steal and kill and destroy .
I have
come
that they may have life, and have it in
all
its
fullness
.
I am the good shepherd :
the good shepherd layeth
down his life for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd .
The good shepherd lays
down His life for the sheep.
He
that
is a
hireling,
and
not a
shepherd, whose
own
the sheep are not ,
beholdeth
the wolf coming, and
leaveth
the sheep ,
and fleeth,
and
the wolf snatcheth
them ,
and scattereth
`them':
The
hired
hand
is not the
shepherd, and
the sheep are not his
own.
When
he
sees
the wolf coming, he
abandons
the sheep and runs
away.
Then
the wolf pounces
on
them and scatters
the
flock.
`he
fleeth'
because he is a hireling,
and careth
not
for the sheep.
The
man
runs
away
because he is a hired
servant
and is
unconcerned
for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd ;
and
I know mine
own,
and mine
own
know me,
I am the good shepherd .
I know My
sheep
and My
sheep
know Me,
even
as the Father knoweth
me ,
and I know the Father ;
and I lay down my life for the sheep.
just
as the Father knows
Me and I know the Father .
And I lay down My life for the sheep.
And
other
sheep
I have ,
which
are not of this fold :
them
also
I must bring, and they shall
hear
my voice :
and
they
shall
become
one flock ,
one shepherd.
I have other
sheep
that
are not of this fold .
I must bring them
in
as
well
, and they will
listen
to
My voice .
Then
there
will
be
one flock and
one shepherd.
Therefore
doth
the Father love
me ,
because
I lay down my life ,
that
I
may
take it again.
The reason
the
Father loves
Me is
that
I lay down My life in
order
to
take it up
again.
No one taketh
it away
from me, but I lay it down of myself
. I have power
to lay it down ,
and I
have
power
to take it again. This commandment
received
I from my Father.
No one takes
it from Me, but I lay it down of My
own
accord
. I have authority
to lay it down and authority
to take it up
again. This charge
I have
received
from My Father. ”
There arose
a
division again
among the Jews because of these
words
.
Again
there was
division among the Jews because of Jesus’
message
.
And
many of them said, He hath
a
demon ,
and is
mad;
why hear
ye
him?
Many of them said, “
He is
demon -possessed
and insane.
Why would
you
listen
to
Him? ”
Others said
, These are not the sayings
of one
possessed with
a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?
But
others replied
, “
These are not the words
of a
man
possessed by
a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind? ”
And
it
was
the feast of the
dedication at
Jerusalem :
At
that
time
the Feast of Dedication took
place
in
Jerusalem .
It
was
winter,
it
was
winter;
and Jesus was walking in the temple in Solomon's
porch
.
and Jesus was walking in the temple courts
in Solomon’s
Colonnade
.
The Jews therefore
came
round
about
him ,
and said
unto
him
, How long dost
thou
hold
us in suspense? If thou
art
the Christ, tell us plainly.
So
the Jews gathered
around
Him and demanded
, “
How long will
You
keep
us in suspense? If You
are
the Christ, tell us plainly. ”
Jesus
answered
them,
I told you, and
ye
believe
not :
the works that
I do in my Father's
name ,
these
bear
witness
of
me
.
“
I already
told you, ”
Jesus
replied,
“but
you
did
not believe.
The works I do in My Father’s
name testify
on
My
behalf
.
But ye
believe
not,
because ye
are not of
my sheep.
But because you
are not My sheep ,
you
refuse
to
believe
.
My sheep hear
my voice ,
and
I know them, and they follow me :
My sheep listen
to
My voice ;
I know them, and they follow Me .
and
I give unto
them eternal life ;
and they shall
never perish ,
and
no one shall
snatch them out of my hand.
I give them eternal life ,
and they will
never perish .
No one can
snatch them out of My hand.
My Father ,
who hath
given `
them '
unto
me ,
is greater than all ;
and
no one is
able
to
snatch `
them '
out of the
Father's
hand.
My Father who has
given them to
Me is greater than all .
No one can
snatch them out of My
Father’s
hand.
I and the Father are one.
I and the Father are one. ”
The Jews took
up stones again
to stone him.
At
this,
the Jews again
picked
up stones to stone Him.
Jesus answered
them
, Many good works have
I
showed
you
from the Father ;
for which of those
works
do ye
stone me?
But
Jesus responded
, “I
have
shown
you
many good works from the Father .
For which of these
do you
stone Me? ”
The
Jews
answered
him,
For a
good work we
stone
thee
not
, but for blasphemy ;
and
because that
thou
, being
a man, makest
thyself
God.
“We
are
not
stoning
You
for any
good work, ”
said
the
Jews,
“
but for blasphemy ,
because You
, who
are
a man, declare
Yourself
to
be
God. ”
Jesus answered
them
, Is it not written in your law ,
I said ,
ye
are gods?
Jesus replied
, “
Is it not written in your Law :
‘
I have
said you
are gods ’
?
If he called them gods ,
unto
whom the word of God came (
and the scripture cannot be broken ),
If he called them gods to
whom the word of God came —
and the Scripture cannot be broken —
say
ye
of
him,
whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world ,
Thou
blasphemest;
because
I
said,
I am `
the '
Son of God?
then
what
about
the
One
whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world ?
How
then
can
you
accuse
Me
of
blasphemy
for
stating
that
I am the Son of God?
If I do
not the works of my Father, believe me not
.
If I am
not doing
the works of My Father, then
do
not
believe Me.
But if I do
them, though ye
believe
not me, believe the works :
that ye
may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.
But if I am
doing
them, even
though you
do
not believe
Me, believe the works themselves,
so
that you
may know and understand that the Father is in Me, and I am
in the Father. ”
They sought
again to take
him :
and
he went
forth
out
of
their hand
.
At
this,
they tried
again to seize
Him ,
but
He escaped
their grasp
.
And
he
went away
again
beyond
the Jordan into
the place where John was
at
the
first baptizing ;
and there be
abode
.
Then
Jesus
went back
across
the Jordan to
the place where John had
first been
baptizing ,
and He
stayed
there.
And
many came unto
him ;
and they
said, John indeed
did
no
sign :
but
all
things
whatsoever
John
spake
of
this man were
true.
Many came to
Him and said, “Although
John never
performed
a
sign ,
everything
he
said
about
this man was
true. ”
And many believed on
him
there
.
And many in
that
place
believed in
Jesus
.
