< John 10 >

1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
AMEN, amen, I say to you, Whosoever entereth not by the door into the fold of the flock, but ascendeth by another place, he is a thief and a robber.
2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
But he who entereth by the door, he is the shepherd of the flock.
3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
And to him the keeper of the gate openeth the gate, and the flock heareth his voice, and his sheep he calleth by their names, and he leadeth them forth;
4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
and when his flock hath gone forth, he goeth before it, and his sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
But after a stranger the flock goeth not, but it fleeth from him; for it knoweth not the voice of a stranger.
6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
This parable spake Jeshu to them, but they knew not what he said with them.
7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
Jeshu saith to them again, Amen, amen, I say to you, I am the gate of the flock;
8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
and all those who have come were thieves and robbers, but the flock heard them not.
9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
I am the gate; by me if any man enter, he shall live and shall come in, and go out, and find pasture.
10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have [it] more abundantly.
The thief cometh not but to steal and to kill and destroy: I am come that they may have life, and that which is more.
11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd, and the good shepherd his life layeth down for his flock.
12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
The hireling who is not the shepherd, and whose the sheep are not, when he seeth the wolf coming, leaveth the flock and fleeth; and the wolf cometh ravaging and destroying the flock.
13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
But the hireling fleeth because he is an hireling, and careth not for the flock.
14 I am the good shepherd, and know my [sheep], and am known of mine.
I am the good shepherd, and know my own, and am known of my own.
15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
As my Father knoweth me (and) I know my Father, and my life I lay down for the flock.
16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, [and] one shepherd.
But I have other sheep also which are not of this fold; and these also it behoveth me to bring, and they will hear my voice, and all shall become one flock and one shepherd.
17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
On this account my Father loveth me, because I lay down my life again to take it.
18 No man taketh it 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 have I received of my Father.
No man taketh it away from me, but I lay it down from my will; for I am able to lay it down, and I am able to take it again; for this commandment have I received from my Father.
19 There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.
And there was again a division among the Jihudoyee because of his words:
20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?
and many of them said, He has a devil, and is altogether insane, why do you hear him?
21 Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
But others said, These words are not of a demoniac: how can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.
IT was the feast of the renovation at Urishlem,
23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon’s porch.
and it was winter. And Jeshu walked in the temple in the portico of Shelumun.
24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
And the Jihudoyee surrounded him, saying to him, How long takest thou our souls? If thou art the Meshicha, tell us openly.
25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me.
Jeshu answered and said to them, I have told you, and you believe not. The works that I do in the name of my Father, these witness for me.
26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
But you believe not, because you are not of my sheep, (even) as I told you.
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;
28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any [man] pluck them out of my hand. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
and I give to them the life which is eternal, and they shall not perish for ever, and no man shall snatch them from my hands. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
29 My Father, which gave [them] me, is greater than all; and no [man] is able to pluck [them] out of my Father’s hand.
For my Father who gave them to me than all is greater; and no man from the hand of my Father can snatch them.
30 I and [my] Father are one.
I and my Father are One.
31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
And again the Jihudoyee took up stones to stone him.
32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
Jeshu saith to them, Many good works from my Father have I showed you: on account of which of these works do you stone me?
33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
The Jihudoyee say to him, Not on account of the good works do we stone thee, but because thou blasphemest; thou, being a son of man, making thyself Aloha.
34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
Jeshu saith to them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are Alohee?
35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
If them he calleth Alohee, because with them was the word of Aloha, and the scripture cannot be loosed,
36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
to him whom the Father hath sanctified and sent into the world, say you, Thou blasphemest, because I have said to you, I am the Son of Aloha?
37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
And if I do not the works of my Father, believe me not;
38 But if I do, though 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, though you believe not me, the works believe, that you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and (that) I (am) in the Father.
39 Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,
And they sought again to apprehend him; but he went forth from among their hands:
40 And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode.
and he went beyond Jurdan, to the place where Juchanon at first had baptized, and was there.
41 And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man were true.
And many came to him, and said, Juchanon did not one sign; but every thing which Juchanon said concerning this man was true.
42 And many believed on him there.
And many believed in him.
