John 10
1 “Lóòótọ́, lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, ẹni tí kò bá gba ẹnu-ọ̀nà wọ inú agbo àgùntàn, ṣùgbọ́n tí ó bá gba ibòmíràn gun òkè, òun náà ni olè àti ọlọ́ṣà.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that enters not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
2 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó bá ti ẹnu-ọ̀nà wọlé, Òun ni olùṣọ́ àwọn àgùntàn.
But he that enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
3 Òun ni aṣọ́nà yóò ṣílẹ̀kùn fún; àwọn àgùntàn gbọ́ ohùn rẹ̀, ó sì pe àwọn àgùntàn tirẹ̀ lórúkọ, ó sì ṣe amọ̀nà wọn jáde.
To him the gate keeper opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out.
4 Nígbà tí ó bá sì ti mú àwọn àgùntàn tirẹ̀ jáde, yóò síwájú wọn, àwọn àgùntàn yóò sì máa tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn, nítorí tí wọ́n mọ ohùn rẹ̀.
And when he puts forth his own sheep, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
5 Wọn kò jẹ́ tọ àlejò lẹ́yìn, ṣùgbọ́n wọn a sá kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, nítorí tí wọn kò mọ ohùn àlejò.”
And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
6 Òwe yìí ni Jesu pa fún wọn, ṣùgbọ́n òye ohun tí nǹkan wọ̀nyí tí ó ń sọ fún wọn kò yé wọn.
This parable spoke Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spoke unto them.
7 Nítorí náà Jesu tún wí fún wọn pé, “Lóòótọ́, lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, Èmi ni ìlẹ̀kùn àwọn àgùntàn.
Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
8 Olè àti ọlọ́ṣà ni gbogbo àwọn tí ó ti wà ṣáájú mi, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn àgùntàn kò gbọ́ tiwọn.
All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9 Èmi ni ìlẹ̀kùn, bí ẹnìkan bá bá ọ̀dọ̀ mi wọlé, òun ni a ó gbàlà, yóò wọlé, yóò sì jáde, yóò sì rí koríko.
I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
10 Olè kì í wá bí kò ṣe láti jalè, láti pa, àti láti parun; èmi wá kí wọn lè ní ìyè, àní kí wọn lè ní i lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀.
The thief comes not, but in order to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
11 “Èmi ni olùṣọ́-àgùntàn rere, olùṣọ́-àgùntàn rere fi ọkàn rẹ̀ lélẹ̀ nítorí àwọn àgùntàn.
I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n alágbàṣe, tí kì í ṣe olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, ẹni tí àwọn àgùntàn kì í ṣe tirẹ̀, ó rí ìkookò ń bọ̀, ó sì fi àgùntàn sílẹ̀, ó sì fọ́n wọn ká kiri.
But he that is a worker, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and left the sheep, and flees: and the wolf catches them, and scatters the sheep.
13 Òun sálọ nítorí tí ó jẹ́ alágbàṣe, kò sì náání àwọn àgùntàn.
The worker flees, because he is a worker, and cares not for the sheep.
14 “Èmi ni olùṣọ́-àgùntàn rere, mo sì mọ àwọn tèmi, àwọn tèmi sì mọ̀ mí.
I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
15 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Baba ti mọ̀ mí, tí èmi sì mọ Baba, mo sì fi ọkàn mi lélẹ̀ nítorí àwọn àgùntàn.
As the Father knows me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16 Èmi sì ní àwọn àgùntàn mìíràn, tí kì í ṣe agbo yìí: àwọn ni èmi yóò mú wá pẹ̀lú, wọn yóò sì gbọ́ ohùn mi; wọn ó sì jẹ́ agbo kan, olùṣọ́-àgùntàn kan.
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.
17 Nítorí náà ni Baba mi ṣe fẹ́ràn mi, nítorí tí mo fi ẹ̀mí mi lélẹ̀, kí èmi lè tún gbà á.
Therefore does my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
18 Ẹnìkan kò gbà á lọ́wọ́ mi, ṣùgbọ́n mo fi í lélẹ̀, mo sì lágbára láti tún gbà á. Àṣẹ yìí ni mo ti gbà wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Baba mi.”
No man takes 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.
19 Nítorí náà ìyapa tún wà láàrín àwọn Júù nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí.
There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings. (logos)
20 Ọ̀pọ̀ nínú wọn sì wí pé, “Ó ní ẹ̀mí èṣù, orí rẹ̀ sì dàrú; èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi ń gbọ́rọ̀ rẹ̀?”
And many of them said, He has a devil, and is mad; why hear all of you him?
21 Àwọn mìíràn wí pé, “Ìwọ̀nyí kì í ṣe ọ̀rọ̀ ẹni tí ó ní ẹ̀mí èṣù. Ẹ̀mí èṣù lè la ojú àwọn afọ́jú bí?”
Others said, These are not the words (rhema) of him that has a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
22 Àkókò náà sì jẹ́ àjọ̀dún ìyàsímímọ́ ní Jerusalẹmu, ni ìgbà òtútù.
And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.
23 Jesu sì ń rìn ní tẹmpili, ní ìloro Solomoni.
And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.
24 Nítorí náà àwọn Júù wá dúró yí i ká, wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ ó ti mú wa ṣe iyèméjì pẹ́ tó? Bí ìwọ bá ni Kristi náà, wí fún wa gbangba.”
Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long do you make us to doubt? If you be the Christ, tell us plainly.
25 Jesu dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Èmi ti wí fún yín, ẹ̀yin kò sì gbàgbọ́; iṣẹ́ tí èmi ń ṣe lórúkọ Baba mi, àwọn ni ó ń jẹ́rìí mi.
Jesus answered them, I told you, and all of you believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me.
26 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò gbàgbọ́, nítorí ẹ̀yin kò sí nínú àwọn àgùntàn mi, gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo tí wí fún yín.
But all of you believe not, because all of you are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
27 Àwọn àgùntàn mi ń gbọ́ ohùn mi, èmi sì mọ̀ wọ́n, wọn a sì máa tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
29 Baba mi, ẹni tí ó fi wọ́n fún mi pọ̀ ju gbogbo wọn lọ; kò sì ṣí ẹni tí ó lè já wọn gbà kúrò lọ́wọ́ Baba mi.
My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
30 Ọ̀kan ni èmi àti Baba mi.”
I and my Father are one.
31 Àwọn Júù sì tún mú òkúta, láti sọ lù ú.
Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
32 Jesu dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ iṣẹ́ rere ni mo fihàn yín láti ọ̀dọ̀ Baba mi wá, nítorí èwo nínú iṣẹ́ wọ̀nyí ni ẹ̀yin ṣe sọ mí ní òkúta?”
Jesus answered them, Many good works have I showed you from my Father; for which of those works do all of you stone me?
33 Àwọn Júù sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Àwa kò sọ ọ́ lókùúta nítorí iṣẹ́ rere, ṣùgbọ́n nítorí ọ̀rọ̀-òdì, àti nítorí ìwọ tí í ṣe ènìyàn ń fi ara rẹ pe Ọlọ́run.”
The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone you not; but for blasphemy; and because that you, being a man, make yourself God.
34 Jesu dá wọn lóhùn pé, “A kò ha tí kọ ọ́ nínú òfin yín pé, ‘Mo ti wí pé, Ọlọ́run ni ẹ̀yin jẹ́’?
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, All of you are gods?
35 Bí ó bá pè wọ́n ní ‘ọlọ́run,’ àwọn ẹni tí a fi ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run fún, a kò sì lè ba ìwé mímọ́ jẹ́.
If he called them gods, unto whom the word (logos) of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
36 Kín ni ẹyin ha ń wí ní ti ẹni tí Baba yà sọ́tọ̀, tí ó sì rán sí ayé kín lo de ti ẹ fi ẹ̀sùn kàn mi pé mò ń sọ̀rọ̀-òdì nítorí pé mo sọ pé, ‘Èmi ni Ọmọ Ọlọ́run.’
Say all of you of him, whom the Father has sanctified, and sent into the world, You blaspheme; because I said, I am the Son of God?
37 Bí èmi kò bá ṣe iṣẹ́ Baba mi, ẹ má ṣe gbà mí gbọ́.
If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
38 Ṣùgbọ́n bí èmi bá ṣe wọ́n, bí ẹ̀yin kò tilẹ̀ gbà mí gbọ́, ẹ gbà iṣẹ́ náà gbọ́, kí ẹ̀yin ba à lè mọ̀, kí ó sì lè yé yín pé, Baba wà nínú mi, èmi sì wà nínú rẹ̀.”
But if I do, though all of you believe not me, believe the works: that all of you may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
39 Wọ́n sì tún ń wá ọ̀nà láti mú un: ó sì bọ́ lọ́wọ́ wọn.
Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,
40 Ó sì tún kọjá lọ sí apá kejì Jordani sí ibi tí Johanu ti kọ́kọ́ ń bamitiisi; níbẹ̀ ni ó sì jókòó.
And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode.
41 Àwọn ènìyàn púpọ̀ sì wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Johanu kò ṣe iṣẹ́ àmì kan, Ṣùgbọ́n òtítọ́ ni ohun gbogbo tí Johanu sọ nípa ti ọkùnrin yìí.”
And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spoke of this man were true.
42 Àwọn ènìyàn púpọ̀ níbẹ̀ sì gbà á gbọ́.
And many believed on him there.
