John 10:22-40
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 1SolomonG4672. 242The JewsG2453 thenG3767 gatheredG2944 aroundG2944 Him, and were sayingG3004 to Him, “HowG2193 longG2193G4219 3will You keepG142 us in suspenseG5590G142? IfG1487 You are 4the ChristG5547, tellG3004 us 5plainlyG3954.” 25JesusG2424 answeredG611 them, “6I toldG3004 you, and you do not believeG4100; 7the worksG2041 that I doG4160 in My Father’sG3962 nameG3686, theseG3778 testifyG3140 of Me. 26But you do not believeG4100 becauseG3754 8you are not of My sheepG4263. 27My sheepG4263 9hearG191 My voiceG5456, and 10I knowG1097 them, and they followG190 Me; 28and I giveG1325 11eternalG166 lifeG2222 to them, and they will neverG3756G3361 perishG622; and 12noG3756 oneG5100 will snatchG726 them out of My handG5495. 2913My 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. 3014I and the FatherG3962 are 15oneG1520.”
31The JewsG2453 16pickedG941 up stonesG3037 againG3825 to stoneG3034 Him. 32JesusG2424 answeredG611 them, “I showedG1166 you manyG4183 goodG2570 worksG2041 from the FatherG3962; for whichG4169 of them are you stoningG3034 Me?” 33The JewsG2453 answeredG611 Him, “For a goodG2570 workG2041 we do not stoneG3034 You, but for 17blasphemyG988; and becauseG3754 You, beingG1510 a manG444, 18makeG4160 YourselfG4572 out to be GodG2316.” 34JesusG2424 answeredG611 them, “Has it not beenG1510 writtenG1125 in 19your 20LawG3551, ‘21I saidG3004, you are godsG2316’? 35IfG1487 he calledG3004 them godsG2316, to whomG3739 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 cameG1096 (and the ScriptureG1124 cannotG1410G3756 be brokenG3089), 36do you sayG3004 of Him, whomG3739 the FatherG3962 22sanctifiedG37 and 23sentG649 into the worldG2889, ‘You are blasphemingG987,’ becauseG3754 I saidG3004, ‘24I amG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG2316’? 3725IfG1487 I do not doG4160 the worksG2041 of My FatherG3962, do not believeG4100 Me; 38but ifG1487 I doG4160 them, thoughG2579 you do not believeG4100 Me, believeG4100 26the worksG2041, soG2443 that you may 27knowG1097 and understandG1097 that 28the FatherG3962 is in Me, and I in the FatherG3962.” 39ThereforeG3767 29they were seekingG2212 againG3825 to seizeG4084 Him, and 30He eludedG1831 their graspG5495.
40And He wentG565 awayG565 31againG3825 beyondG4008 the JordanG2446 to the placeG5117 whereG3699 JohnG2491 was firstG4413 baptizingG907, and He was stayingG3306 thereG1563.
