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.
Verily, verily, I say to you, That he who doth not enter by the door into the fold of the flock, but climbeth up in some other 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 that entereth by the door, 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 door-keeper openeth the door; and the sheep hear his voice. And he calleth the sheep by their names, and leadeth them out.
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 he hath led out his flock, 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 will not follow, but it fleeth from him; because 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 allegory spake Jesus to them; but they knew not what he said to them.
7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
And Jesus said to them again: Verily, verily, I say to you, That I am the door of the flock.
8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
All those who have come, were thieves and robbers: but the flock did not hear them.
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 door: and if any enter by me, he will live, and will come in and go out, and will 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 that he may steal, and kill, and destroy. I have come, that they may have life, and may have that which is excellent.
11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
I am a good shepherd. A good shepherd exposeth his life for the sheep.
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.
But a hireling, who is not the shepherd, and to whom the sheep do not belong, when he seeth the wolf coming, leaveth the flock, and fleeth; and the wolf cometh, and teareth, and disperseth the flock.
13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
And a hireling fleeth, because he is a hireling, and hath no concern for the flock.
14 I am the good shepherd, and know my [sheep], and am known of mine.
I am a good shepherd; and I know my own sheep, and am known by 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, so know I my Father; and I expose my life 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.
And I have other sheep, which are not of this fold: and them also I must bring; and they will hear my voice; and the whole will be one flock, and one shepherd.
17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
For this cause my Father loveth me, that I lay down my life, to resume it again.
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.
There is no one that taketh it from me; but I lay it down of my own pleasure: for I have authority to lay it down, and authority to resume it again; because I have received this command from my Father.
19 There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.
And again there was a division among the Jews, on account of these sayings.
20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?
And many of them said: He hath a demon, and is wholly beside himself; why hear ye 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 are not the discourses of a demoniac: can a demon open the eyes of one blind?
22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.
And the feast of the dedication was held at Jerusalem, and it was winter.
23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon’s porch.
And Jesus walked in the temple, in the porch of Solomon.
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 Jews gathered around him; and said to him: how long holdest thou our mind in suspense? If thou art the Messiah, tell us plainly.
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.
Jesus answered, and said to them: I have told you, and ye did not believe. The works which I do in the name of my Father, they testify of me
26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
But ye do not believe, because ye are not of my sheep, as I have said to 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 go after me.
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, is greater than all; nor can any pluck from my Father's hand.
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 Jews 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?
Jesus said to them: Many good works have I showed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye 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 Jews said to him: It is not on account of good works, that we stone thee: but because thou blasphemest; and, whilst thou art a man, thou makest thyself God.
34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
Jesus said to them: Is it not written in your law, I have said, Ye are gods?
35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
If he called them gods, because the word of God was with them, and the scripture cannot be nullified;
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?
do ye say to him, whom the Father, hath sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said to you, I am the Son of God?
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 them, although ye believe not me, yet believe the works; that ye may know and believe, that my Father is in me, and I in my Father.
39 Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,
And again they sought to lay hold of him; but he escaped out of their hands;
40 And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode.
and retired to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John at first baptized, and tarried 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 persons came to him: and they said, John indeed wrought not even one sign; but every thing that John said of his man, was true.
42 And many believed on him there.
And many believed on him.
