John 10
1 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.
ahaṁ yuṣmānatiyathārthaṁ vadāmi, yo jano dvāreṇa na praviśya kenāpyanyena meṣagṛhaṁ praviśati sa eva steno dasyuśca|
2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
yo dvāreṇa praviśati sa eva meṣapālakaḥ|
3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
dauvārikastasmai dvāraṁ mocayati meṣagaṇaśca tasya vākyaṁ śṛṇoti sa nijān meṣān svasvanāmnāhūya bahiḥ kṛtvā nayati|
4 When he hath put forth all his own, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
tathā nijān meṣān bahiḥ kṛtvā svayaṁ teṣām agre gacchati, tato meṣāstasya śabdaṁ budhyante, tasmāt tasya paścād vrajanti|
5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
kintu parasya śabdaṁ na budhyante tasmāt tasya paścād vrajiṣyanti varaṁ tasya samīpāt palāyiṣyante|
6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
yīśustebhya imāṁ dṛṣṭāntakathām akathayat kintu tena kathitakathāyāstātparyyaṁ te nābudhyanta|
7 Jesus therefore said unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
ato yīśuḥ punarakathayat, yuṣmānāhaṁ yathārthataraṁ vyāharāmi, meṣagṛhasya dvāram ahameva|
8 All that came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
mayā na praviśya ya āgacchan te stenā dasyavaśca kintu meṣāsteṣāṁ kathā nāśṛṇvan|
9 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.
ahameva dvārasvarūpaḥ, mayā yaḥ kaścita praviśati sa rakṣāṁ prāpsyati tathā bahirantaśca gamanāgamane kṛtvā caraṇasthānaṁ prāpsyati|
10 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.
yo janastenaḥ sa kevalaṁ stainyabadhavināśān karttumeva samāyāti kintvaham āyu rdātum arthāt bāhūlyena tadeva dātum āgaccham|
11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd layeth down his life for the sheep.
ahameva satyameṣapālako yastu satyo meṣapālakaḥ sa meṣārthaṁ prāṇatyāgaṁ karoti;
12 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]:
kintu yo jano meṣapālako na, arthād yasya meṣā nijā na bhavanti, ya etādṛśo vaitanikaḥ sa vṛkam āgacchantaṁ dṛṣṭvā mejavrajaṁ vihāya palāyate, tasmād vṛkastaṁ vrajaṁ dhṛtvā vikirati|
13 [he fleeth] because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
vaitanikaḥ palāyate yataḥ sa vetanārthī meṣārthaṁ na cintayati|
14 I am the good shepherd; and I know mine own, and mine own know me,
ahameva satyo meṣapālakaḥ, pitā māṁ yathā jānāti, ahañca yathā pitaraṁ jānāmi,
15 even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
tathā nijān meṣānapi jānāmi, meṣāśca māṁ jānānti, ahañca meṣārthaṁ prāṇatyāgaṁ karomi|
16 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.
aparañca etad gṛhīya meṣebhyo bhinnā api meṣā mama santi te sakalā ānayitavyāḥ; te mama śabdaṁ śroṣyanti tata eko vraja eko rakṣako bhaviṣyati|
17 Therefore doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
prāṇānahaṁ tyaktvā punaḥ prāṇān grahīṣyāmi, tasmāt pitā mayi snehaṁ karoti|
18 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.
kaścijjano mama prāṇān hantuṁ na śaknoti kintu svayaṁ tān samarpayāmi tān samarpayituṁ punargrahītuñca mama śaktirāste bhāramimaṁ svapituḥ sakāśāt prāptoham|
19 There arose a division again among the Jews because of these words.
asmādupadeśāt punaśca yihūdīyānāṁ madhye bhinnavākyatā jātā|
20 And many of them said, He hath a demon, and is mad; why hear ye him?
tato bahavo vyāharan eṣa bhūtagrasta unmattaśca, kuta etasya kathāṁ śṛṇutha?
21 Others said, These are not the sayings of one possessed with a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?
kecid avadan etasya kathā bhūtagrastasya kathāvanna bhavanti, bhūtaḥ kim andhāya cakṣuṣī dātuṁ śaknoti?
22 And it was the feast of the dedication at Jerusalem:
śītakāle yirūśālami mandirotsargaparvvaṇyupasthite
23 it was winter; and Jesus was walking in the temple in Solomon’s porch.
yīśuḥ sulemāno niḥsāreṇa gamanāgamane karoti,
24 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.
etasmin samaye yihūdīyāstaṁ veṣṭayitvā vyāharan kati kālān asmākaṁ vicikitsāṁ sthāpayiṣyāmi? yadyabhiṣikto bhavati tarhi tat spaṣṭaṁ vada|
25 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.
tadā yīśuḥ pratyavadad aham acakathaṁ kintu yūyaṁ na pratītha, nijapitu rnāmnā yāṁ yāṁ kriyāṁ karomi sā kriyaiva mama sākṣisvarūpā|
26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep.
kintvahaṁ pūrvvamakathayaṁ yūyaṁ mama meṣā na bhavatha, kāraṇādasmān na viśvasitha|
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
mama meṣā mama śabdaṁ śṛṇvanti tānahaṁ jānāmi te ca mama paścād gacchanti|
29 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.
yo mama pitā tān mahyaṁ dattavān sa sarvvasmāt mahān, kopi mama pituḥ karāt tān harttuṁ na śakṣyati|
30 I and the Father are one.
ahaṁ pitā ca dvayorekatvam|
31 The Jews took up stones again to stone him.
tato yihūdīyāḥ punarapi taṁ hantuṁ pāṣāṇān udatolayan|
32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I showed you from the Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
yīśuḥ kathitavān pituḥ sakāśād bahūnyuttamakarmmāṇi yuṣmākaṁ prākāśayaṁ teṣāṁ kasya karmmaṇaḥ kāraṇān māṁ pāṣāṇairāhantum udyatāḥ stha?
33 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.
yihūdīyāḥ pratyavadan praśastakarmmaheto rna kintu tvaṁ mānuṣaḥ svamīśvaram uktveśvaraṁ nindasi kāraṇādasmāt tvāṁ pāṣāṇairhanmaḥ|
34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
tadā yīśuḥ pratyuktavān mayā kathitaṁ yūyam īśvarā etadvacanaṁ yuṣmākaṁ śāstre likhitaṁ nāsti kiṁ?
35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came (and the scripture cannot be broken),
tasmād yeṣām uddeśe īśvarasya kathā kathitā te yadīśvaragaṇā ucyante dharmmagranthasyāpyanyathā bhavituṁ na śakyaṁ,
36 say ye of him, whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am [the] Son of God?
tarhyāham īśvarasya putra iti vākyasya kathanāt yūyaṁ pitrābhiṣiktaṁ jagati preritañca pumāṁsaṁ katham īśvaranindakaṁ vādaya?
37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
yadyahaṁ pituḥ karmma na karomi tarhi māṁ na pratīta;
38 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.
kintu yadi karomi tarhi mayi yuṣmābhiḥ pratyaye na kṛte'pi kāryye pratyayaḥ kriyatāṁ, tato mayi pitāstīti pitaryyaham asmīti ca kṣātvā viśvasiṣyatha|
39 They sought again to take him: and he went forth out of their hand.
tadā te punarapi taṁ dharttum aceṣṭanta kintu sa teṣāṁ karebhyo nistīryya
40 And he went away again beyond the Jordan into the place where John was at the first baptizing; and there he abode.
puna ryarddan adyāstaṭe yatra purvvaṁ yohan amajjayat tatrāgatya nyavasat|
41 And many came unto him; and they said, John indeed did no sign: but all things whatsoever John spake of this man were true.
tato bahavo lokāstatsamīpam āgatya vyāharan yohan kimapyāścaryyaṁ karmma nākarot kintvasmin manuṣye yā yaḥ kathā akathayat tāḥ sarvvāḥ satyāḥ;
42 And many believed on him there.
tatra ca bahavo lokāstasmin vyaśvasan|
