dby - John:10:1-21

dby@John:10:1 @ Verily, verily, I say to you, He that enters not in by the door to the fold of the sheep, but mounts up elsewhere, he is a thief and a robber;

dby@John:10:2 @ but he that enters in by the door is [the] shepherd of the sheep.

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

dby@John:10:4 @ When he has put forth all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.

dby@John:10:5 @ But they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, because they know not the voice of strangers.

dby@John:10:6 @ This allegory spoke Jesus to them, but they did not know what it was [of] which he spoke to them.

dby@John:10:7 @ Jesus therefore said again to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

dby@John:10:8 @ All whoever came before me are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them.

dby@John:10:9 @ I am the door: if any one enter in by me, he shall be saved, and shall go in and shall go out and shall find pasture.

dby@John:10:10 @ The thief comes not but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I am come that they might have life, and might have [it] abundantly.

dby@John:10:11 @ I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep:

dby@John:10:12 @ but he who serves for wages, and who is not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf seizes them and scatters the sheep.

dby@John:10:13 @ Now he who serves for wages flees because he serves for wages, and is not himself concerned about the sheep.

dby@John:10:14 @ I am the good shepherd; and I know those that are mine, and am known of those that are mine,

dby@John:10:15 @ as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.

dby@John:10:16 @ And I have other sheep which are not of this fold: those also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one flock, one shepherd.

dby@John:10:17 @ On this account the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it again.

dby@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. I have received this commandment of my Father.

dby@John:10:19 @ There was a division again among the Jews on account of these words;

dby@John:10:20 @ but many of them said, He has a demon and raves; why do ye hear him?

dby@John:10:21 @ Others said, These sayings are not [those] of one that is possessed by a demon. Can a demon open blind people's eyes?
