vw@John:10:1 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

vw@John:10:2 @ But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

vw@John:10:3 @ To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.

vw@John:10:4 @ And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.

vw@John:10:5 @ Yet they will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.

vw@John:10:6 @ Jesus spoke this parable, but they did not understand the things which He spoke to them.

vw@John:10:7 @ Then Jesus said to them again, Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

vw@John:10:8 @ All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.

vw@John:10:9 @ I am the door. If anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.

vw@John:10:10 @ The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

vw@John:10:11 @ I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.

vw@John:10:12 @ But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them.

vw@John:10:13 @ The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care about the sheep.

vw@John:10:14 @ I am the Good Shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own.

vw@John:10:15 @ As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.

vw@John:10:16 @ And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must lead, and they will hear My voice; and there will be one flock and one Shepherd.

vw@John:10:17 @ Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again.

vw@John:10:18 @ 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. This precept I have received from My Father.

vw@John:10:19 @ Therefore there was a division again among the Jews because of these words.

vw@John:10:20 @ And many of them said, He has a demon and is mad. Why do you listen to Him?

vw@John:10:21 @ Others said, These are not the words of one who has a demon. A demon is not able to open the eyes of the blind.

vw@John:10:22 @ Now it was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem, and it was winter.

vw@John:10:23 @ And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomons porch.

vw@John:10:24 @ Then the Jews surrounded Him and said to Him, How long do You keep us in doubt? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.

vw@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them, I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Fathers name, they bear witness concerning Me.

vw@John:10:26 @ But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you.

vw@John:10:27 @ My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

vw@John:10:28 @ And I give them eternal life, and they shall never ever perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.

vw@John:10:29 @ My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one has the power to snatch them out of My Fathers hand.

vw@John:10:30 @ I and the Father are One.

vw@John:10:31 @ Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him.

vw@John:10:32 @ Jesus answered them, Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?

vw@John:10:33 @ The Jews answered Him, saying, For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a man, make Yourself God.

vw@John:10:34 @ Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your Law, I said, You are gods.

vw@John:10:35 @ If He called them gods, to whom the Word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),

vw@John:10:36 @ do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, You are blaspheming, because I said, I am the Son of God?

vw@John:10:37 @ If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me;

vw@John:10:38 @ but if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him.

vw@John:10:39 @ Therefore they sought again to seize Him, but He escaped out of their hand.

vw@John:10:40 @ And He went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was immersing at first, and there He stayed.

vw@John:10:41 @ Then many came to Him and said, John performed no sign, but all the things that John spoke about this Man were true.

vw@John:10:42 @ And many believed into Him there.
