John 10
1 Verily, verily, I say unto you: —He that entereth not, through the door, into the fold of the sheep, but goeth up from another place, that man, is, a thief, and, a robber.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
2 But, he that entereth through the door, is, shepherd, of the sheep:
But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
3 To him, the porter openeth, and, the sheep, unto his voice, hearken: and, his own sheep, he calleth by name, and leadeth them forth.
To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
4 As soon as, all his own, he hath put forth, before them, he moveth on, and, the sheep, follow him, because they know his voice;
When he hath put forth all his own, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
5 But, a stranger, will they in nowise follow, but will flee from him, because they know not the voice, of strangers.
And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
6 This similitude, spake Jesus unto them; but, those men, understood not what the things were which he was speaking unto them.
This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
7 Jesus, therefore, said, again—Verily, verily, I say unto you: —I, am the door of the sheep:
Jesus therefore said unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
8 All, as many as came before me, are thieves, and, robbers: but the sheep hearkened nor unto them.
All that came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9 I, am the door: through me, if anyone enter, he shall be saved, and shall come in and go out, and, pasture, shall find.
I am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture.
10 The thief, cometh not, save that he may thieve and slay and destroy: I, came, that, life, they might have, and, above measure, might have.
The thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I came that they may have life, and may have [it] abundantly.
11 I, am the good shepherd: The good shepherd, his life, layeth down, for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd layeth down his life for the sheep.
12 The hireling, even because he is no shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, vieweth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, —and, the wolf, seizeth them and scattereth, —
He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholdeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf snatcheth them, and scattereth [them]:
13 Because, a hireling, he is, and hath no care for the sheep.
[he fleeth] because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
14 I, am the good shepherd, and know my own, and, my own, know me, —
I am the good shepherd; and I know mine own, and mine own know me,
15 Just as, the Father, knoweth me, and, I, know, the Father; and, my life, I lay down for the sheep.
even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16 And, other sheep, have I, which are not of this fold: those also, I must needs bring, and, unto my voice, will they hearken, and there shall come to be, One flock, One shepherd.
And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and they shall become one flock, one shepherd.
17 Therefore, doth the Father, love, me, because, I, lay down my life, that, again, I may receive it: —
Therefore doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
18 No one, forced it from me, but, I, lay it down, of myself, —Authority, have I, to lay it down, and, authority, have I, again, to receive it: This commandment, received I, from my Father.
No one taketh it away 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 received I from my Father.
19 A division, again, took place among the Jews, because of these words.
There arose a division again among the Jews because of these words.
20 But many from among them were saying—A demon, he hath, and is raving, —Why, unto him, do ye hearken?
And many of them said, He hath a demon, and is mad; why hear ye him?
21 Others, said—These sayings, are not those of one demonized, —Can, a demon, open the eyes of, the blind?
Others said, These are not the sayings of one possessed with a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?
22 The feast of dedication took place at that time, in Jerusalem: it was, winter,
And it was the feast of the dedication at Jerusalem:
23 and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the porch of Solomon.
it was winter; and Jesus was walking in the temple in Solomon’s porch.
24 The Jews, therefore, surrounded him, and were saying unto him—How long, holdest thou, our lives, in suspense? If, thou, art the Christ, tell us, plainly.
The Jews therefore came round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou hold us in suspense? If thou art the Christ, tell us plainly.
25 Jesus answered them—I told you, and ye believe not: The works which, I, am doing in the name of my Father, the same, bear witness concerning me.
Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believe not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, these bear witness of me.
26 But, ye, believe not, because ye are not of my sheep.
But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep.
27 My sheep, unto my voice, hearken, —and, I, know, them, and they follow me, —
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
29 What, my Father, hath given me, is, something greater than all, and, no one, can carry off out of the hand of my Father: —
My Father, who hath given [them] unto me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch [them] out of the Father’s hand.
30 I and the Father, are, one.
I and the Father are one.
31 The Jews again lifted up stones, that they might stone him.
The Jews took up stones again to stone him.
32 Jesus answered them—Many works, have I showed you, noble ones, from my Father: For which of those works are ye stoning me?
Jesus answered them, Many good works have I showed you from the Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
33 The Jews answered him—Concerning a noble work, are we not stoning thee; but concerning profane speech, —and because, thou, being, a man, art making thyself, God.
The Jews answered him, For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
34 Jesus answered them—Is it not written in your law: I, said, Ye are, gods?
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
35 If, those, he called gods, unto whom, the word of God, came—and the Scripture cannot be broken—
If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came (and the scripture cannot be broken),
36 Of him whom, the Father, hallowed and sent forth into the world, are, ye, saying—Thou speakest profanely, because I said, Son of God, I am?
say ye of him, whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am [the] Son of God?
37 If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not believe in me;
If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
38 But, if I am doing them, even though, in me, ye believe not, in the works, believe, —that ye may get to know and go on to know, that the Father is, in me, and, I, am, in the Father.
But if I do them, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.
39 They were [therefore] again seeking to take him; and he went forth out of their hand.

40 And he went away again, beyond the Jordan, unto the place where John was at the first, immersing; and he abode there.
And he went away again beyond the Jordan into the place where John was at the first baptizing; and there he abode.
41 And, many, came unto him, and were saying—John, indeed, did not so much as, one sign; but, all things, whatsoever John said concerning this one, were, true.
And many came unto him; and they said, John indeed did no sign: but all things whatsoever John spake of this man were true.
42 And, many, believed on him there.
And many believed on him there.
