* Verily , verily , I say (5719 ) unto you , He that entereth (5740 ) not by the door into the sheepfold , but climbeth up (5723 ) some other way , the same is (5748 ) a thief and a robber . * But he that entereth in (5740 ) by the door is (5748 ) the shepherd of the sheep . * To him the porter openeth (5719 ); and the sheep hear (5719 ) his voice : and he calleth (5719 ) his own sheep by name , and leadeth them out (5719 ). * And when he putteth forth (5632 ) his own sheep , he goeth (5736 ) before them , and the sheep follow (5719 ) him : for they know (5758 ) his voice . * And a stranger will they not follow (5661 ), but will flee (5695 ) from him : for they know (5758 ) not the voice of strangers . * This parable spake (5627 ) Jesus unto them : but they understood (5627 ) not what things they were (5713 ) which he spake (5707 ) unto them . * Then said (5627 ) Jesus unto them again , Verily , verily , I say (5719 ) unto you , I am (5748 ) the door of the sheep . * All that ever came (5627 ) before me are (5748 ) thieves and robbers : but the sheep did not hear (5656 ) them . * I am (5748 ) the door : by me if any man enter in (5632 ), he shall be saved (5701 ), and shall go in (5695 ) and out (5695 ), and find (5692 ) pasture . * The thief cometh (5736 ) not , but for to steal (5661 ), and to kill (5661 ), and to destroy (5661 ): I am come (5627 ) that they might have (5725 ) life , and that they might have (5725 ) it more abundantly . * I am (5748 ) the good shepherd : the good shepherd giveth (5719 ) his life for the sheep . * But he that is (5752 ) an hireling , and not the shepherd , whose own the sheep are (5748 ) not , seeth (5719 ) the wolf coming (5740 ), and leaveth (5719 ) the sheep , and fleeth (5719 ): and the wolf catcheth (5719 ) them , and scattereth (5719 ) the sheep . * The hireling fleeth (5719 ), because he is (5748 ) an hireling , and careth (5719 ) not for the sheep . * I am (5748 ) the good shepherd , and know (5719 ) my sheep , and am known (5743 ) of mine . * As the Father knoweth (5719 ) me , even so know (5719 ) I the Father : and I lay down (5719 ) my life for the sheep . * And other sheep I have (5719 ), which are (5748 ) not of this fold : them also I must (5748 ) bring (5629 ), and they shall hear (5692 ) my voice ; and there shall be (5695 ) one fold , and one shepherd . * Therefore doth my Father love (5719 ) me , because I lay down (5719 ) my life , that I might take (5632 ) it again . * No man taketh (5719 ) it from me , but I lay it down (5719 ) of myself . I have (5719 ) power to lay it down (5629 ), and I have (5719 ) power to take (5629 ) it again . This commandment have I received (5627 ) of my Father . * There was (5633 ) a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings . * And many of them said (5707 ), He hath (5719 ) a devil , and is mad (5736 ); why hear ye (5719 ) him ? * Others said (5707 ), These are (5748 ) not the words of him that hath a devil (5740 ). Can (5736 ) a devil open (5721 ) the eyes of the blind ? * And it was (5633 ) at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication , and it was (5713 ) winter . * And Jesus walked (5707 ) in the temple in Solomons porch . * Then came the Jews round about (5656 ) him , and said (5707 ) unto him , How long dost thou make (5719 ) us to doubt ? If thou be (5748 ) the Christ , tell (5628 ) us plainly . * Jesus answered (5662 ) them , I told (5627 ) you , and ye believed (5719 ) not : the works that I do (5719 ) in my Fathers name , they bear witness (5719 ) of me . * But ye believe (5719 ) not , because ye are (5748 ) not of my sheep , as I said (5627 ) unto you . * My sheep hear (5719 ) my voice , and I know (5719 ) them , and they follow (5719 ) me : * And I give (5719 ) unto them eternal life ; and they shall never perish (5643 ), neither shall any man pluck (5692 ) them out of my hand . * My Father , which gave (5758 ) them me , is (5748 ) greater than all ; and no man is able (5736 ) to pluck (5721 ) them out of my Fathers hand . * I and my Father are (5748 ) one . * Then the Jews took up (5656 ) stones again to stone (5661 ) him . * Jesus answered (5662 ) them , Many good works have I shewed (5656 ) you from my Father ; for which of those works do ye stone (5719 ) me ? * The Jews answered (5662 ) him , saying (5723 ), For a good work we stone (5719 ) thee not ; but for blasphemy ; and because that thou , being (5752 ) a man , makest (5719 ) thyself God . * Jesus answered (5662 ) them , Is it (5748 ) not written (5772 ) in your law , I said (5656 ), Ye are (5748 ) gods ? * If he called (5627 ) them gods , unto whom the word of God came (5633 ), and the scripture cannot (5736 ) be broken (5683 ); * Say (5719 ) ye of him , whom the Father hath sanctified (5656 ), and sent (5656 ) into the world , Thou blasphemest (5719 ); because I said (5627 ), I am (5748 ) the Son of God ? * If I do (5719 ) not the works of my Father , believe (5720 ) me not . * But if I do (5719 ), though ye believe (5725 ) not me , believe (5657 ) the works : that ye may know (5632 ), and believe (5661 ), that the Father is in me , and I in him . * Therefore they sought (5707 ) again to take (5658 ) him : but he escaped (5627 ) out of their hand , * And went away (5627 ) again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized (5723 ) (5713 ); and there he abode (5656 ). * And many resorted (5627 ) unto him , and said (5707 ), John did (5656 ) no miracle : but all things that John spake (5627 ) of this man were (5713 ) true . * And many believed (5656 ) on him there .
