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.
10:2  But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
10:3  To him the doorkeeper openeth, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calleth his own sheep by name and leadeth them out.
10:4  And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.
10:5  And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him, for they know not the voice of strangers.”
10:6  This parable Jesus spoke unto them, but they understood not what things they were which 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; by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
10:10  The thief cometh not but to steal and to kill and to destroy. I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
10:11  I am the Good Shepherd; the Good Shepherd giveth His life for the sheep.
10:12  But he that is a 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.
10:13  The hireling fleeth because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
10:14  I am the Good Shepherd, and know My sheep and am known by Mine.
10:15  As the Father knoweth Me, even so know I 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 shall hear My voice; and there shall be one fold and one Shepherd.
10:17  Therefore doth My Father love Me, because I lay down My life, that I might take it again.
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 from My Father.”
10:19  There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.
10:20  And many of them said, “He hath a devil and is mad. Why hear ye him?”
10:21  Others said, “These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?”
10:22  And it was at Jerusalem the Feast of the Dedication, and it was winter.
10:23  And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon’s Porch.
10:24  Then came the Jews round about Him and said unto Him, “How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.”
10:25  Jesus answered them, “I told you, and ye believed not. 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 any man pluck them out of My hand.
10:29  My Father, who gave them to Me, is greater than all; and no man 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 shown 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 stone thee not, 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 hath sanctified and sent into the world, ‘Thou blasphemest,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?
10:37  If I do not the works of My Father, believe Me not.
10:38  But if I do, though ye believe not 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 the Jordan into the place where John had first baptized; and there He abode.
10:41  And many resorted unto Him and said that John did no miracle, but all things that John spoke of this Man were true.
10:42  And many believed in Him there.
