John:10:1-16
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 .
*
But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep .
*
To him the porter openeth ;
and the sheep hear his voice :
and he calleth his own sheep by name ,
and leadeth them out .
*
And when he putteth forth his own sheep ,
he goeth before them ,
and the sheep follow him :
for they know his voice .
*
And a stranger will they not follow ,
but will flee from him :
for they know not the voice of strangers .
*
This parable spake Jesus unto them :
but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them .
*
Then said Jesus unto them again ,
Verily ,
verily ,
I say unto you ,
I am the door of the sheep .
*
All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers :
but the sheep did not hear them .
*
I am the door :
by me if any man enter in ,
he shall be saved ,
and shall go in and out ,
and find pasture .
*
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 .
*
I am the good shepherd :
the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep .
*
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 fleeth ,
because he is an hireling ,
and careth not for the sheep .
*
I am the good shepherd ,
and know my sheep ,
and am known of mine .
*
As the Father knoweth me ,
even so know I the Father :
and I lay down my life for the sheep .
*
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 .
