John 10
1 In truth I tell you, whoever does not go into the sheepfold through the door, but climbs up at some other place, that person is a thief and a robber;
αμην αμην λεγω υμιν ο μη εισερχομενος δια της θυρας εις την αυλην των προβατων αλλα αναβαινων αλλαχοθεν εκεινος κλεπτης εστιν και ληστης
2 but the person who goes in through the door is shepherd to the sheep.
ο δε εισερχομενος δια της θυρας ποιμην εστιν των προβατων
3 For him the watchman opens the door; and the sheep listen to his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out.
τουτω ο θυρωρος ανοιγει και τα προβατα της φωνης αυτου ακουει και τα ιδια προβατα καλει κατ ονομα και εξαγει αυτα
4 When he has brought them all out, he walks in front of them, and his sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
και οταν τα ιδια προβατα εκβαλη εμπροσθεν αυτων πορευεται και τα προβατα αυτω ακολουθει οτι οιδασιν την φωνην αυτου
5 They will not follow a stranger, but will run away from him; because they do not know a stranger’s voice.’
αλλοτριω δε ου μη ακολουθησωσιν αλλα φευξονται απ αυτου οτι ουκ οιδασιν των αλλοτριων την φωνην
6 This was the allegory that Jesus told them, but they did not understand of what he was speaking.
ταυτην την παροιμιαν ειπεν αυτοις ο ιησους εκεινοι δε ουκ εγνωσαν τινα ην α ελαλει αυτοις
7 So he continued, ‘In truth I tell you, I am the door for the sheep.
ειπεν ουν παλιν αυτοις ο ιησους αμην αμην λεγω υμιν οτι εγω ειμι η θυρα των προβατων
8 All who came before me were thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not listen to them.
παντες οσοι ηλθον προ εμου κλεπται εισιν και λησται αλλ ουκ ηκουσαν αυτων τα προβατα
9 I am the door; he who goes in through me will be safe, and he will go in and out and find pasture.
εγω ειμι η θυρα δι εμου εαν τις εισελθη σωθησεται και εισελευσεται και εξελευσεται και νομην ευρησει
10 The thief comes only to steal, to kill, and to destroy; I have come so that they may have life, and may have it in greater fullness.
ο κλεπτης ουκ ερχεται ει μη ινα κλεψη και θυση και απολεση εγω ηλθον ινα ζωην εχωσιν και περισσον εχωσιν
11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for his sheep.
εγω ειμι ο ποιμην ο καλος ο ποιμην ο καλος την ψυχην αυτου τιθησιν υπερ των προβατων
12 The hired man who is not a shepherd, and who does not own the sheep, when he sees a wolf coming, leaves them and runs away; then the wolf seizes them, and scatters the flock.
ο μισθωτος δε και ουκ ων ποιμην ου ουκ εισιν τα προβατα ιδια θεωρει τον λυκον ερχομενον και αφιησιν τα προβατα και φευγει και ο λυκος αρπαζει αυτα και σκορπιζει τα προβατα
13 He does this because he is only a hired man and does not care about the sheep.
ο δε μισθωτος φευγει οτι μισθωτος εστιν και ου μελει αυτω περι των προβατων
14 I am the good shepherd; and I know my sheep, and my sheep know me –
εγω ειμι ο ποιμην ο καλος και γινωσκω τα εμα και γινωσκομαι υπο των εμων
15 Just as the Father knows me and I know the Father – and I lay down my life for the sheep.
καθως γινωσκει με ο πατηρ καγω γινωσκω τον πατερα και την ψυχην μου τιθημι υπερ των προβατων
16 I have other sheep besides, which do not belong to this fold; I must lead them also, and they will listen to my voice; and they will become one flock under one shepherd.
και αλλα προβατα εχω α ουκ εστιν εκ της αυλης ταυτης κακεινα με δει αγαγειν και της φωνης μου ακουσουσιν και γενησεται μια ποιμνη εις ποιμην
17 This is why the Father loves me, because I lay down my life – to receive it again.
δια τουτο ο πατηρ με αγαπα οτι εγω τιθημι την ψυχην μου ινα παλιν λαβω αυτην
18 No one took it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to receive it again. This is the command which I received from my Father.’
ουδεις αιρει αυτην απ εμου αλλ εγω τιθημι αυτην απ εμαυτου εξουσιαν εχω θειναι αυτην και εξουσιαν εχω παλιν λαβειν αυτην ταυτην την εντολην ελαβον παρα του πατρος μου
19 In consequence of these words a difference of opinion again arose among the people.
σχισμα ουν παλιν εγενετο εν τοις ιουδαιοις δια τους λογους τουτους
20 Many of them said, ‘He is possessed by a demon and is mad; why do you listen to him?’
ελεγον δε πολλοι εξ αυτων δαιμονιον εχει και μαινεται τι αυτου ακουετε
21 Others said, ‘This is not the teaching of one who is possessed by a demon. Can a demon give sight to the blind?’
αλλοι ελεγον ταυτα τα ρηματα ουκ εστιν δαιμονιζομενου μη δαιμονιον δυναται τυφλων οφθαλμους ανοιγειν
22 Soon after this the Festival of the Rededication was held at Jerusalem.
εγενετο δε τα εγκαινια εν τοις ιεροσολυμοις και χειμων ην
23 It was winter; and Jesus was walking in the Temple Courts, in the Colonnade of Solomon,
και περιεπατει ο ιησους εν τω ιερω εν τη στοα του σολομωνος
24 when the people gathered round him, and said, ‘How long are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us so frankly.’
εκυκλωσαν ουν αυτον οι ιουδαιοι και ελεγον αυτω εως ποτε την ψυχην ημων αιρεις ει συ ει ο χριστος ειπε ημιν παρρησια
25 ‘I have told you so,’ replied Jesus, ‘and you do not believe me. The work that I am doing in my Father’s name bears testimony to me.
απεκριθη αυτοις ο ιησους ειπον υμιν και ου πιστευετε τα εργα α εγω ποιω εν τω ονοματι του πατρος μου ταυτα μαρτυρει περι εμου
26 But you do not believe me, because you are not of my flock.
αλλ υμεις ου πιστευετε ου γαρ εστε εκ των προβατων των εμων καθως ειπον υμιν
27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me;
τα προβατα τα εμα της φωνης μου ακουει καγω γινωσκω αυτα και ακολουθουσιν μοι
29 What my Father has entrusted to me is more than all else; and no one can snatch anything out of the Father’s hands.
ο πατηρ μου ος δεδωκεν μοι μειζων παντων εστιν και ουδεις δυναται αρπαζειν εκ της χειρος του πατρος μου
30 The Father and I are one.’
εγω και ο πατηρ εν εσμεν
31 Some of the people again brought stones to throw at him;
εβαστασαν ουν παλιν λιθους οι ιουδαιοι ινα λιθασωσιν αυτον
32 and seeing this, Jesus said, ‘I have done before your eyes many good actions, inspired by the Father; for which of them would you stone me?’
απεκριθη αυτοις ο ιησους πολλα καλα εργα εδειξα υμιν εκ του πατρος μου δια ποιον αυτων εργον λιθαζετε με
33 ‘It is not for any good action that we would stone you,’ they answered, ‘but for blasphemy; and because you, who are only a man, make yourself out to be God.’
απεκριθησαν αυτω οι ιουδαιοι λεγοντες περι καλου εργου ου λιθαζομεν σε αλλα περι βλασφημιας και οτι συ ανθρωπος ων ποιεις σεαυτον θεον
34 ‘Are there not,’ replied Jesus, ‘these words in your Law – “I said, You are gods”?
απεκριθη αυτοις ο ιησους ουκ εστιν γεγραμμενον εν τω νομω υμων εγω ειπα θεοι εστε
35 If those to whom God’s word were addressed were said to be “gods” – and scripture cannot be set aside –
ει εκεινους ειπεν θεους προς ους ο λογος του θεου εγενετο και ου δυναται λυθηναι η γραφη
36 do you say of one whom the Father has consecrated and sent as his messenger to the world “You are blaspheming,” because I said “I am God’s Son”?
ον ο πατηρ ηγιασεν και απεστειλεν εις τον κοσμον υμεις λεγετε οτι βλασφημεις οτι ειπον υιος του θεου ειμι
37 If I am not doing the work that my Father is doing, do not believe me;
ει ου ποιω τα εργα του πατρος μου μη πιστευετε μοι
38 if I am doing it, even though you do not believe me, believe what that work shows; so that you may understand, and understand more and more clearly, that the Father is in union with me, and I with the Father.’
ει δε ποιω καν εμοι μη πιστευητε τοις εργοις πιστευσατε ινα γνωτε και πιστευσητε οτι εν εμοι ο πατηρ καγω εν αυτω
39 The authorities again sought to arrest him; but he escaped their hands.
εζητουν ουν παλιν πιασαι αυτον και εξηλθεν εκ της χειρος αυτων
40 Then Jesus again crossed the Jordan to the place where John used to baptize at first, and stayed there some time, during which many people came to see him.
και απηλθεν παλιν περαν του ιορδανου εις τον τοπον οπου ην ιωαννης το πρωτον βαπτιζων και εμεινεν εκει
41 ‘John gave no sign of his mission,’ they said. ‘But everything that he said about this man was true.’
και πολλοι ηλθον προς αυτον και ελεγον οτι ιωαννης μεν σημειον εποιησεν ουδεν παντα δε οσα ειπεν ιωαννης περι τουτου αληθη ην
42 And many learned to believe in Jesus there.
και επιστευσαν πολλοι εκει εις αυτον
