10:1  Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that enters not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
10:2  But he that enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
10:3  To him the porter opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
10:4  And when he puts forth his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.
10:5  And they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.
10:6  Jesus spoke this parable unto them, but they did not understand what it was that he spoke unto them.
10:7  Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I AM the door of the sheep.
10:8  All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.
10:9  I AM the door; whosoever enters in by me shall be saved and shall go in and out and find pasture.
10:10  The thief comes not but for to steal and to kill and to destroy the sheep; I am come that they might have life and that they might have it in abundance.
10:11  I AM the good shepherd; the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.
10:12  But the hireling, who is not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, 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 the sheep do not belong to him.
10:14  I AM the good shepherd, and know my sheep and am known of mine.
10:15  As the Father knows me, even so I know the Father, and I lay down my soul for the sheep.
10:16  And I have other sheep which are not of this fold; it is expedient that I bring them also, and they shall hear my voice, and there shall be one fold and one shepherd.
10:17  Therefore does my Father love me, because I lay down my soul that I might take it again.
10:18  No man takes 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 I have received of my Father.
10:19  There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these words.
10:20  And many of them said, He has a demon and is beside himself; why do ye hear him?
10:21  Others said, These are not the words of him that has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?
10:22  And they celebrated the dedication in Jerusalem, and it was winter.
10:23  And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon’s porch.
10:24  Then the Jews came round about him and said unto him, Until when wilt thou hold our soul in suspense? If thou art the Christ, tell us plainly.
10:25  Jesus answered them, I have told you, and ye do not believe; the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me.
10:26  But ye believe not because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
10:27  My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me;
10:28  and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall anyone pluck them out of my hand.
10:29  My Father, who gave them to me, is greater than all; and no one is able to pluck 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 answered them, Many good works have I showed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
10:33  The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we do not stone thee, but for blasphemy; and because thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
10:34  Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
10:35  If he called them gods unto whom the word of God came (and the scripture cannot be broken),
10:36  do ye say of him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest, 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 ye do not believe me, believe the works that ye may know and believe that the Father is in me and I in him.
10:39  Therefore they sought again to take him, but he escaped out of their hand
10:40  and went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized, and there he abode.
10:41  And many came unto him and said, John certainly did no sign, but all the things that John spoke of this man were true.
10:42  And many believed in him there.
