John 10
1 Verily, verily, I say to you, He that enters not in by the door to the fold of the sheep, but mounts up elsewhere, he is a thief and a robber;
Truly, truly do I say to you, He that entereth not through the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber;
2 but he that enters in by the door is [the] shepherd of the sheep.
but he that entereth through the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
3 To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out.
To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice; and his own sheep he calleth by name, and leadeth them out.
4 When he has put forth all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
When he hath put forth all his own, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
5 But they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, because they know not the voice of strangers.
But a stranger they will not follow, but will flee from him; because they know not the voice of strangers.
6 This allegory spoke Jesus to them, but they did not know what it was [of] which he spoke to them.
This parable Jesus spoke to them; but they did not understand what the things were which he spoke to them.
7 Jesus therefore said again to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
Jesus therefore said, Truly, truly do I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
8 All whoever came before me are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them.
All those who came are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them.
9 I am the door: if any one enter in by me, he shall be saved, and shall go in and shall go out and shall find pasture.
I am the door; if any one enter through me, he will be saved, and will go in and out, and find pasture.
10 The thief comes not but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I am come that they might have life, and might have [it] abundantly.
The thief cometh not but to steal, and to kill, and to destroy; I came that they might have life, and have abundance.
11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep:
I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
12 but he who serves for wages, and who is not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf seizes them and scatters the sheep.
He that is a hireling and not a shepherd, nor the owner of the sheep, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth; and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep;
13 Now he who serves for wages flees because he serves for wages, and is not himself concerned about the sheep.
because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
14 I am the good shepherd; and I know those that are mine, and am known of those that are mine,
I am the good shepherd, and I know my sheep, and they know me,
15 as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I give my life for the sheep.
16 And I have other sheep which are not of this fold: those also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one flock, one shepherd.
And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold; them also I must bring; and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd.
17 On this account the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it again.
On this account the Father loveth me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down and I have authority to take it again. I have received this commandment of my Father.
No one taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it again; this charge I received from my Father.
19 There was a division again among the Jews on account of these words;

20 but many of them said, He has a demon and raves; why do ye hear him?
Many of them said, He hath a demon, and is mad; why do ye hear him?
21 Others said, These sayings are not [those] of one that is possessed by a demon. Can a demon open blind people's eyes?
Others said, These are not the words of one that hath a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?

Then came the Jews around him, and said to him, How long dost thou hold our minds in suspense? If thou art the Christ, tell us plainly.
25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye do not believe. The works which I do in my Father's name, these bear witness concerning me:

27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me;
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me;
29 My Father who has given [them] to me is greater than all, and no one can seize out of the hand of my Father.
That which my Father hath given me is greater than all; and no one is able to tear [[them]] out of the Father's hand.
30 I and the Father are one.
I and the Father are one.
31 The Jews therefore again took stones that they might stone him.
The Jews again took up stones to stone him.
32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewn you of my Father; for which work of them do ye stone me?
Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shown you from the Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
33 The Jews answered him, For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy, and because thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
The Jews answered him, Not for a good work do we stone thee, but for blasphemy, and because thou, who art a man, makest thyself God.
34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your Law, “I said, ye are gods”?
35 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 cannot be made void,
36 do ye say of him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest, because I said, I am Son of God?
say ye of him whom the Father sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest, because I said, I am the Son of God?
37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not;
If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
38 but if I do, even if ye believe not me, believe the works, that ye may know [and believe] that the Father is in me and I in him.
But if I do them, though ye believe not me, believe the works; that ye may learn and know that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.
39 They sought therefore again to take him; and he went away from out of their hand

40 and departed again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptising at the first: and he abode there.
