Chapter 10
1“Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever does not enter the sheepfold by the gate, but climbs in some other way, is a thief and a robber.
(Hebrew unavailable)
2But the one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep.
(Hebrew unavailable)
3The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen for his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
(Hebrew unavailable)
4When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice.
(Hebrew unavailable)
5But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will flee from him because they do not recognize his voice.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
6Jesus spoke to them using this illustration, but they did not understand what He was telling them.
(Hebrew unavailable)
7So He said to them again, “Truly, truly, I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep.
(Hebrew unavailable)
8All who came before Me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.
(Hebrew unavailable)
9I am the gate. If anyone enters through Me, he will be saved. He will come in and go out and find pasture.
(Hebrew unavailable)
10The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and have it in all its fullness.
(Hebrew unavailable)
11I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.
(Hebrew unavailable)
12The hired hand is not the shepherd, and the sheep are not his own. When he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf pounces on them and scatters the flock.
(Hebrew unavailable)
13The man runs away because he is a hired servant and is unconcerned for the sheep.
(Hebrew unavailable)
14I am the good shepherd. I know My sheep and My sheep know Me,
(Hebrew unavailable)
15just as the Father knows Me and I know the Father. And I lay down My life for the sheep.
(Hebrew unavailable)
16I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them in as well, and they will listen to My voice. Then there will be one flock and one shepherd.
(Hebrew unavailable)
17The reason the Father loves Me is that I lay down My life in order to take it up again.
(Hebrew unavailable)
18No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of My own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from My Father.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
19Again there was division among the Jews because of Jesus’ message.
(Hebrew unavailable)
20Many of them said, “He is demon-possessed and insane. Why would you listen to Him?”
(Hebrew unavailable)
21But others replied, “These are not the words of a man possessed by a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?”
(Hebrew unavailable)
22At that time the Feast of Dedication took place in Jerusalem. It was winter,
(Hebrew unavailable)
23and Jesus was walking in the temple courts in Solomon’s Colonnade.
(Hebrew unavailable)
24So the Jews gathered around Him and demanded, “How long will You keep us in suspense? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
25“I already told you,” Jesus replied, “but you did not believe. The works I do in My Father’s name testify on My behalf.
(Hebrew unavailable)
26But because you are not My sheep, you refuse to believe.
(Hebrew unavailable)
27My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me.
(Hebrew unavailable)
28I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand.
(Hebrew unavailable)
29My Father who has given them to Me is greater than all. No one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand.
(Hebrew unavailable)
30I and the Father are one.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
31At this, the Jews again picked up stones to stone Him.
(Hebrew unavailable)
32But Jesus responded, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone Me?”
(Hebrew unavailable)
33“We are not stoning You for any good work,” said the Jews, “but for blasphemy, because You, who are a man, make Yourself out to be God.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
34Jesus replied, “Is it not written in your Law: ‘I have said you are gods’?
(Hebrew unavailable)
35If he called them gods to whom the word of God came—and the Scripture cannot be broken—
(Hebrew unavailable)
36then what about the One whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world? How then can you accuse Me of blasphemy for stating that I am the Son of God?
(Hebrew unavailable)
37If I am not doing the works of My Father, then do not believe Me.
(Hebrew unavailable)
38But if I am doing them, even though you do not believe Me, believe the works themselves, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in Me, and I am in the Father.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
39At this, they tried again to seize Him, but He escaped their grasp.
(Hebrew unavailable)
40Then Jesus went back across the Jordan to the place where John had first been baptizing, and He stayed there.
(Hebrew unavailable)
41Many came to Him and said, “Although John never performed a sign, everything he said about this man was true.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
42And many in that place believed in Jesus.
(Hebrew unavailable)
