| 10:1 | "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber." |
| 10:2 | But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep." |
| 10:3 | To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out." |
| 10:4 | And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice." |
| 10:5 | Yet they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers." |
| 10:6 | Jesus spoke this parable to them, but they did not understand those things which He spoke to them. |
| 10:7 | Then Jesus said to them again, "Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep." |
| 10:8 | All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them." |
| 10:9 | I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture." |
| 10:10 | The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." |
| 10:11 | "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep." |
| 10:12 | But he who is a hireling, and is not the shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches them and scatters the sheep." |
| 10:13 | The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care for the sheep." |
| 10:14 | I am the good shepherd; and know My sheep, and am known by My own." |
| 10:15 | As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep." |
| 10:16 | And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they will hear My voice; and there will be one flock and one shepherd." |
| 10:17 | "Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again." |
| 10:18 | No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it again. This command I have received from My Father." |
| 10:19 | Therefore there was a division again among the Jews because of these sayings. |
| 10:20 | And many of them said, "He has a demon and is mad. Why do you listen to Him?" |
| 10:21 | Others said, "These are not the words of one who has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?" |
| 10:22 | Now it was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem, and it was winter. |
| 10:23 | And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon's porch. |
| 10:24 | Then the Jews surrounded Him and said to Him, "How long do You keep us in doubt? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly." |
| 10:25 | Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me." |
| 10:26 | But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you." |
| 10:27 | My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me." |
| 10:28 | And I give them eternal life, and they will never perish; neither will anyone snatch them out of My hand." |
| 10:29 | My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand." |
| 10:30 | I and My Father are one." |
| 10:31 | Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him. |
| 10:32 | Jesus responded to them, "Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?" |
| 10:33 | The Jews answered Him, saying, "For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God." |
| 10:34 | Jesus replied to them, "Is it not written in your law, 'I said, "You are gods"'? |
| 10:35 | If He called them gods, to whom the word of God came, and the Scripture cannot be broken," |
| 10:36 | do you say of Him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'?" |
| 10:37 | If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me;" |
| 10:38 | but if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him." |
| 10:39 | Therefore they sought again to seize Him, but He escaped out of their hand. |
| 10:40 | And He went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptizing at first, and there He stayed. |
| 10:41 | Then many came to Him and said, "John performed no miracle, but all the things that John spoke about this Man are true." |
| 10:42 | And many believed on Him there. |
