“Most certainly, I tell you, one who doesn’t enter by the door into the sheep fold, but climbs up some other way, is a thief and a robber.
But one who enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
4 ⲇ̅ ϩⲟⲧⲁⲛ ⲉϥϣⲁⲛⲉ͡ⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲉ. ϣⲁϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲩϩⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ϣⲁⲣⲉⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱϥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲥⲙⲏ.
Whenever he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.
They will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him; for they don’t know the voice of strangers.”
Jesus spoke this parable to them, but they didn’t understand what he was telling them.
Jesus therefore said to them again, “Most certainly, I tell you, I am the sheep’s door.
All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep didn’t listen to them.
9 ⲑ̅ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲣⲟ. ⲉⲣϣⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧ. ϥⲛⲁⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲩⲱ ϥⲛⲁⲃⲱⲕʾ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲛϥ̅ⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϥ̅ϩⲉ ⲉⲩⲙⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲛⲉ.
I am the door. If anyone enters in by me, he will be saved, and will go in and go out and will find pasture.
10 ⲓ̅ ⲡⲣⲉϥϫⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲙⲉϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ. ⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲏⲧⲓ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉϩⲱϥⲧ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥ̅ϣⲱⲱⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥ̅ⲧⲁⲕⲟ. ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲉ͡ⲓ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲛⲁϩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉϫⲓⲟⲩϩⲟ(ⲩⲟ).
The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
12 ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ ⲡϫⲁⲓ̈ⲃⲉⲕⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲛ̅ⲟⲩϣⲱⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲉⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ϣⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲱⲛϣ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ϣⲁϥⲕⲁⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲛϥ̅ⲡⲱⲧ. ⲁⲩⲱ ϣⲁⲣⲉⲡⲟⲩⲱⲛϣ ⲧⲟⲣⲡⲟⲩ ⲛϥ̅ϫⲟⲟⲣⲟⲩ
He who is a hired hand, and not a shepherd, who doesn’t own the sheep, sees the wolf coming, leaves the sheep, and flees. The wolf snatches the sheep and scatters them.
The hired hand flees because he is a hired hand and doesn’t care for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd. I know my own, and I’m known by my own;
even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. I lay down my life for the sheep.
16 ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲉⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲛϩⲉⲛⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲟϩⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲡⲥ̅ ⲉⲧⲣⲁⲥⲟⲟⲩϩⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲧⲁⲥⲙⲏ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ. ⲟⲩϣⲱⲥ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ.
I have other sheep which are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will hear my voice. They will become one flock with one shepherd.
Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
18 ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ϥⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉⲧⲕⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲓ̈ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩⲁⲁⲧ. ⲟⲩⲛϯⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲛϯⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲉϫⲓⲧⲥ̅. ⲧⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ϫⲓⲧⲥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ.
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.”
Therefore a division arose again amongst the Jews because of these words.
Many of them said, “He has a demon and is insane! Why do you listen to him?”
21 ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲛⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲉϥⲟ ⲛ̅ⲇⲁⲓⲙⲟⲛⲓⲟⲛ. ⲙⲏ ⲟⲩⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓⲙⲟⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲉⲩⲱⲛ ⲛ̅ⲃ̅ⲃⲁⲗ ⲛ̅ⲃ̅ⲃⲗ̅ⲗⲉ·
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, is it?”
It was the Feast of the Dedication at Jerusalem.
It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in Solomon’s porch.
24 ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ ⲁⲩⲕⲱⲧⲉ ϭⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ϣⲁⲧⲛⲁⲩ ⲕϥⲓ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ. ⲉϣϫⲉⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϫⲓⲥ ⲛⲁⲛ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲣⲏⲥⲓⲁ.
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.”
25 ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲁⲉ͡ⲓϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲁⲛ. ⲛⲉϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉϯⲉ͡ⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲉⲧⲣ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧ.
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 you don’t believe, because you are not of my sheep, as I told you.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
My Father who has given them to me is greater than all. No one is able to snatch them out of my Father’s hand.
I and the Father are one.”
Therefore the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
32 ⲗ̅ⲃ̅ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲁⲓ̈ⲧⲥⲁⲃⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲉⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲁϣ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲓⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ̈.
Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good works from my Father. For which of those works do you stone me?”
33 ⲗ̅ⲅ̅ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲛⲁϩⲓⲱⲛⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ ⲉⲧⲃⲉϩⲱⲃ ⲉⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲧⲃⲉϫⲓⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲉⲛⲧⲕ̅ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲕⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲕ ⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
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 answered them, “Isn’t it written in your law, ‘I said, you are gods’?
35 ⲗ̅ⲉ̅ ⲉϣϫⲉⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ϣⲁⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ⲃⲱⲗ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture can’t be broken),
36 ⲗ̅ⲋ̅ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡⲓⲱⲧ ⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟϥ ⲁϥⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲕϫⲉⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓ̈ϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲅ̅ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
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 don’t do the works of my Father, don’t believe me.
38 ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ ⲉϣϫⲉϯⲉ͡ⲓⲣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ. ⲕⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲉ͡ⲓ. ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲛⲉϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲱⲧ ϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϯϩⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲱⲧ.
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.”
They sought again to seize him, and he went out of their hand.
He went away again beyond the Jordan into the place where John was baptising at first, and he stayed there.
41 ⲙ̅ⲁ̅ ⲁⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲃⲱⲕ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡϥ̅ⲣ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈ⲛ. ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲉⲛⲙⲉ ⲛⲉ.
Many came to him. They said, “John indeed did no sign, but everything that John said about this man is true.”
Many believed in him there.
