John - ch 10 v 1 - 20
- Amen, amen I say to you: He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up another way, the same is a thief and a robber.
- But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
- To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
- And when he hath let out his own sheep, he goeth before them: and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
- But a stranger they follow not, but fly from him, because they know not the voice of strangers.
- This proverb Jesus spoke to them. But they understood not what he spoke to them.
- Jesus therefore said to them again: Amen, amen I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
- All others, as many as have come, are thieves and robbers: and the sheep heard them not.
- I am the door. By me, if any man enter in, he shall be saved: and he shall go in, and go out, and shall find pastures.
- The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I am come that they may have life, and may have it more abundantly.
- I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd giveth his life for his sheep.
- But the hireling, and he that is not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and flieth: and the wolf catcheth, and scattereth the sheep:
- And the hireling flieth, because he is a hireling: and he hath no care for the sheep.
- I am the good shepherd; and I know mine, and mine know me.
- As the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father: and I lay down my life for my sheep.
- And other sheep I have, that 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.
- Therefore doth the Father love me: because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
- No man taketh it away from me: but I lay it down of myself, and I have power to lay it down: and I have power to take it up again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
- A dissension rose again among the Jews for these words.
- And many of them said: He hath a devil, and is mad: why hear you him?
