Berean Standard Bible
`Verily
, verily
, I say
to
you, He
who
is
not entering
through
the
door
to
the fold
of
the sheep
, but is
going
up
from
another
side
, that
one
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 .
and
he
who is
entering
through
the door
is shepherd of the sheep ;
But
the
one
who enters
by
the gate
is the
shepherd of the sheep .
to
this
one
the doorkeeper
doth
open
, and the sheep hear
his voice ,
and
his own sheep he
doth
call
by name ,
and doth
lead
them forth;
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.
and
when his own sheep
he
may
put
forth
, before
them
he goeth
on, and the
sheep follow him ,
because they have
known
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
they will not
follow, but
will flee from him ,
because they have
not known
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
similitude
spake
Jesus to them, and
they knew
not what the
things
were
that
he was speaking
to
them ;
Jesus spoke
to them using
this
illustration
, but
they did
not understand
what He was telling
them .
Jesus
said therefore
again
to them, `Verily
, verily
, I say
to
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 ,
as
many
as
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,
through me if
any
one
may
come
in
, he shall
be saved ,
and
he shall
come in ,
and go out ,
and 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 doth
not
come,
except
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 his life layeth
down
for the sheep ;
I am the good shepherd .
The good shepherd lays
down
His life for the sheep .
and
the hireling,
and
not being
a
shepherd, whose
own
the sheep are not ,
doth
behold
the wolf coming, and
doth
leave
the sheep ,
and doth
flee;
and
the wolf catcheth
them ,
and scattereth
the sheep;
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.
and
the hireling
doth
flee
because he is an
hireling,
and is not
caring
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 my `
sheep ',
and am
known
by
mine
,
I am the good shepherd .
I know My sheep and My
sheep
know
Me
,
according
as the Father doth
know
me ,
and I know the Father ,
and my
life
I lay down 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 that are not of this fold ,
these
also
it
behoveth
me
to
bring, and my
voice
they will hear,
and
there 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.
`Because
of
this
doth
the Father love
me ,
because
I lay down my life ,
that
again
I
may
take it ;
The reason
the
Father loves
Me is
that
I lay down My life in
order
to
take it up
again.
no one doth
take
it from me, but I lay it down of myself;
authority
I have to lay it down ,
and authority I
have
again
to take it ;
this command
I received 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. ”
Therefore,
again ,
there came
a
division 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 do
ye
hear
him? '
Many of them said, “
He is
demon -possessed
and insane.
Why would
you
listen
to
Him? ”
others said
, `
These sayings
are not those
of a demoniac;
is
a demon able
blind
men's
eyes
to
open? '
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
the dedication in Jerusalem came,
and
it was winter,
At
that
time
the Feast
of
Dedication took
place
in Jerusalem .
It was winter,
and Jesus was walking in the temple ,
in the
porch
of
Solomon,
and Jesus was walking in the temple courts
in Solomon’s
Colonnade.
the Jews ,
therefore,
came
round
about
him ,
and said
to
him
, `Till
when
our
soul
dost
thou
hold
in suspense? if thou
art
the Christ, tell us freely
. '
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
do
not believe ;
the works that
I do in the
name
of
my Father,
these
testify concerning
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
do
not
believe,
for
ye
are not of
my sheep,
But because
you
are not My sheep, you
refuse
to
believe.
according
as
I
said
to
you:
My sheep my voice do
hear,
and
I know them, and they follow me ,
My sheep listen
to
My voice ;
I know them, and they follow Me .
and
life
age-during
I give to
them, and they shall
not
perish --
to
the
age,
and
no one shall
pluck
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 to me ,
is greater than all ,
and
no one is
able
to
pluck
out of the
hand
of
my Father;
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. ”
Therefore,
again
, did
the Jews take
up stones that
they
may
stone him ;
At
this
, the Jews again
picked
up stones to
stone Him .
Jesus answered
them
, `
Many good works did
I
shew
you
from my
Father ;
because
of
which work
of them
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,
saying,
`
For a
good work we
do
not
stone
thee
, but for evil
speaking
, and
because thou
, being
a man, dost
make
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 having
been
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 them
he did
call
gods unto
whom the word of God came ,
(
and the Writing
is
not
able
to
be broken ,)
If he called
them
gods to
whom the word of God came —
and the Scripture
cannot
be broken —
of
him
whom the Father did
sanctify,
and send
to
the world ,
do
ye
say
--
Thou
speakest
evil,
because
I said,
Son of God I
am
?
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, do not believe me ;
If I am
not doing
the works of My Father, then
do not believe Me .
and
if I do
, even if
me
ye
may
not believe, the works believe
, that ye
may know and may
believe
that in
me
`is'
the Father, and I in Him
. '
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
. ”
Therefore
were
they seeking
again to seize him, and
he went
forth
out
of
their hand,
At
this,
they tried
again to seize Him, but
He escaped
their grasp.
and
went away
again
to
the
other
side
of
the Jordan ,
to the place where John was
at
first baptizing, and remained
there ,
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 said --
`John
, indeed,
did
no
sign, and
all
things,
as
many
as
John
said about this one
were
true ;'
Many came to
Him and said, “Although
John
never
performed
a
sign, everything
he
said about this man
was
true .”
and many did
believe
in him
there
.
And many in that
place
believed
in
Jesus
.
