kjv@John:10:1
@ 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. kjv@John:10:2
@ But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. kjv@John:10:3
@ To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. kjv@John:10:4
@ And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. kjv@John:10:5
@ And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers. kjv@John:10:6
@ This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them. kjv@John:10:7
@ Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. kjv@John:10:8
@ All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. kjv@John:10:9
@ I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. kjv@John:10:10
@ 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. kjv@John:10:11
@ I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. kjv@John:10:12
@ 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. kjv@John:10:13
@ The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. kjv@John:10:14
@ I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. kjv@John:10:15
@ As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. kjv@John:10:16
@ 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. kjv@John:10:17
@ Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. kjv@John:10:18
@ No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. kjv@John:10:19
@ There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings. kjv@John:10:20
@ And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him? kjv@John:10:21
@ Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
