John 10:1-5

1“Truly, truly I say to you, the one who does not enter by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way, he is 1a thief and a robber.

2But the one who enters by the door is 2a shepherd of the sheep.

3To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep listen to 3his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and 4leads them out.

4When he puts all his own sheep outside, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know 5his voice.

5However, a stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know 6the voice of strangers.”
