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.
"Most
assuredly
, I tell you, one
who
doesn't
enter by the door
into

But the
one who enters by the gate

them, and his
sheep follow him because
they know his voice.
Whenever
he brings
out his own sheep
, he goes before
them, and the

will flee from him because
they do
not
recognize
his
voice. ”

no
means
follow a stranger, but

not
understand what He was telling them.

.

not
listen to them.

all
its
fullness

flock
.

who

a

the
sheep,
and scatters them
.

runs
away

and is
unconcerned
for the sheep.

I lay down My life for the sheep.
even
as the Father knows me ,
and I know the Father. I lay down my life for the sheep.

I
may
take it again.

My
own
accord

to lay it down and authority
to take it up
again. This
charge
I have
received from My Father. ”
No one takes it away
from me, but I lay it down by
myself
. I have power
to lay it down ,
and I
have
power
to take it again. I received this
commandment
from my Father. "
Again
there
was
division among the Jews because of Jesus’
message
.
Therefore
a
division arose
again
among the Jews because of these
words
.
Many of them said, “
He is
demon -possessed
and insane .
Why would
you listen to Him? ”
Many of them said, "
He has
a
demon ,
and is
insane !
Why do
you listen to him? "
But
others replied
, “
These are not the words
of a
man
possessed by a demon. Can
a demon open the eyes of the blind? ”
Others said
, "
These are not the sayings
of one
possessed by a demon. It
isn't
possible
for
a demon to
open the eyes of the blind ,

At
that
time
the Feast of Dedication took
place
in
Jerusalem. It
was
winter,
It
was

Dedication at
Jerusalem.

in Solomon’s
Colonnade
.
It
was
winter,
and Jesus was walking in the temple ,
in Solomon's
porch
.
So
the Jews gathered
around Him and demanded
, “
How long will You keep
us in suspense? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly. ”
The Jews therefore
came
around him and said
to
him
, "
How long will you hold
us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly. "
“
I already
told you, ”
Jesus
replied,
“but
you did
not
believe. The works I do in My Father’s
name testify on
My
behalf
.
Jesus
answered
them,
"
I told you, and
you don't
believe. The works that
I do in my Father's
name ,
these
testify about
me
.
But because you are not My sheep, you refuse
to
believe
.
But you
don't
believe,
because you are not of
my sheep, as
I
told
you.
My sheep listen
to
My voice ;
I know them, and they follow Me.
My sheep hear
my voice ,
and
I know them, and they follow me.

eternal life ,
and
they will never perish .
No one can
snatch them out of My hand.

At
this,
the
Jews again
picked
up stones to stone Him.
Therefore
Jews took
up stones again
to stone him.
But
Jesus responded
, “
I have shown you many good works from the
Father. For which of these
do you stone Me? ”
Jesus answered
them
, "
I have shown you many good works from my
Father. For which of those
works
do you stone me? "
“
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. ”
The
Jews
answered
him,
"
We don't
stone
you for a
good work, but for blasphemy :
because you, being
a man, make
yourself God. "
Jesus replied
, “Is
it not
written in your Law :
‘
I have
said you are gods ’
?
Jesus answered
them
, "Isn't
it written in your law ,
'
I said ,
you are gods? '
If he called them gods to 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 can't
be broken ),
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?
Do
you
say
of
him
whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world ,
'
You blaspheme,'
because
I said,
'I
am the Son of God? '
If I am
not
doing
the works of My Father, then
do
not
believe Me.
If I don't
do
the works of my Father, don't
believe me.
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. ”
But if I do
them, though you don't
believe me, believe the works ;
that you may know and believe
that the Father is in me, and I in the Father. "
At
this,
they tried
again to seize Him, but
He escaped
their grasp
.
They sought
again to seize him, and
he went
out
of
their hand
.
Then
Jesus
went back
across
the Jordan to
the place where John had
first
been
baptizing, and He stayed there
.
He
went away
again
beyond
the Jordan into
the place where John was
baptizing at
first
, and there
he stayed.
Many came to Him and
said, “Although
John never
performed
a
sign, everything he
said about this man was
true. ”
Many came to him .
They
said, "
John indeed
did
no
sign, but
everything that
John
said about this man is
true. "
And
many in
that
place
believed in Jesus
.
Many believed in him
there
.
