* "
Truly ,
truly ,
I say to you ,
he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way ,
that man is a thief and a robber ;
*
but he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep .
*
To him the gatekeeper opens ;
the sheep hear his voice ,
and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out .
*
When he has brought out all his own ,
he goes before them ,
and the sheep follow him ,
for they know his voice .
*
A stranger they will not follow ,
but they will flee from him ,
for they do not know the voice of strangers ."
*
This figure Jesus used with them ,
but they did not understand what he was saying to them .
*
So Jesus again said to them , "
Truly ,
truly ,
I say to you ,
I am the door of the sheep .
*
All who came before me are thieves and robbers ;
but the sheep did not heed them .
*
I am the door ;
if any one enters by me ,
he will be saved ,
and will go in and out and find pasture .
