John 10:13-30

13He flees becauseG3754 he is a hiredG3411 handG3411 and is not concernedG3199 aboutG4012 the sheepG4263. 14 1I amG1510 the goodG2570 shepherdG4166, and 2I knowG1097 My ownG1699 and My ownG1699 knowG1097 Me, 15evenG2531 as 3the FatherG3962 knowsG1097 Me and I knowG1097 the FatherG3962; and 4I layG5087 downG5087 My lifeG5590 for the sheepG4263. 16I haveG2192 5otherG243 sheepG4263, whichG3739 are not of thisG3778 foldG833; I mustG1163 bringG71 them alsoG2548, and they will hearG191 My voiceG5456; and they will becomeG1096 6oneG1520 flockG4167 with 7oneG1520 shepherdG4166. 17For thisG3778 reasonG1223 the FatherG3962 lovesG25 Me, becauseG3754 I 8layG5087 downG5087 My lifeG5590 soG2443 that I may takeG2983 it againG3825. 18 9NoG3762 oneG3762 has takenG142 it awayG142 from Me, but I 10layG5087 it downG5087 on My ownG1683 initiativeG1683. I haveG2192 authorityG1849 to layG5087 it downG5087, and I haveG2192 authorityG1849 to takeG2983 it up againG3825. 11ThisG3778 commandmentG1785 I receivedG2983 from My FatherG3962.”

19 12A divisionG4978 occurredG1096 againG3825 amongG1722 the JewsG2453 becauseG1223 of theseG3778 wordsG3056. 20ManyG4183 of them were sayingG3004, “He 13hasG2192 a demonG1140 and 14is insaneG3105. WhyG5101 do you listenG191 to Him?” 21OthersG243 were sayingG3004, “TheseG3778 are not the sayingsG4487 of one 15demon-possessedG1139. 16A demonG1140 cannotG1410 G3361 openG455 the eyesG3788 of the blindG5185, can he?”

22At that timeG5119 the FeastG1456 of the DedicationG1456 tookG1096 placeG1096 at JerusalemG2414; 23it was winterG5494, and JesusG2424 was walkingG4043 in the templeG2413 in the porticoG4745 of 17SolomonG4672. 24 18The JewsG2453 thenG3767 gatheredG2944 aroundG2944 Him, and were sayingG3004 to Him, “HowG2193 longG2193 G4219 19will You keepG142 us in suspenseG5590 G142? IfG1487 You are 20the ChristG5547, tellG3004 us 21plainlyG3954.” 25JesusG2424 answeredG611 them, “22I toldG3004 you, and you do not believeG4100; 23the worksG2041 that I doG4160 in My Father’sG3962 nameG3686, theseG3778 testifyG3140 of Me. 26But you do not believeG4100 becauseG3754 24you are not of My sheepG4263. 27My sheepG4263 25hearG191 My voiceG5456, and 26I knowG1097 them, and they followG190 Me; 28and I giveG1325 27eternalG166 lifeG2222 to them, and they will neverG3756 G3361 perishG622; and 28noG3756 oneG5100 will snatchG726 them out of My handG5495. 29 29My FatherG3962, whoG3739 has givenG1325 them to Me, is greaterG3173 than allG3956; and noG3762 oneG3762 is ableG1410 to snatchG726 them out of the Father’sG3962 handG5495. 30 30I and the FatherG3962 are 31oneG1520.”
