John 10
1VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, He thatG3588 enterethG1525 notG3361 byG1223 the doorG3588G2374 intoG1519 the sheepfoldG3588G833, butG235 climbeth upG305 some other wayG237, the sameG1565 isG1510 a thiefG2812 andG2532 a robberG3027. 2ButG1161 he thatG3588 entereth inG1525 byG1223 the doorG3588G2374 isG1510 the shepherdG4166 of the sheepG3588G4263. 3To himG3778 the porterG3588G2377 openethG455; andG2532 the sheepG3588G4263 hearG191 hisG846 voiceG3588G5456: andG2532 he callethG2564 his ownG2398 sheepG4263 byG2596 nameG3686, andG2532 leadethG1806 themG846 outG1806. 4AndG2532 whenG3752 he putteth forthG1544 his ownG2398 sheepG4263, heG846 goethG4198 before themG1715, andG2532 the sheepG3588G4263 followG190 himG846: forG3754 they knowG1492 hisG846 voiceG3588G5456. 5AndG1161 a strangerG245 will theyG190 notG3756 followG190, butG235 will fleeG5343 fromG575 himG846: forG3754 they knowG1492 notG3756 the voiceG3588G5456 of strangersG245. 6ThisG3778 parableG3588G3942 spakeG3004 JesusG3588G2424 unto themG846: butG1161 theyG1565 understoodG1097 notG3756 what thingsG5101 they wereG1510 whichG3739 he spakeG2980 unto themG846. 7ThenG3767 saidG3004 JesusG3588G2424 unto themG846 againG3825, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, IG1473 amG1510 the doorG3588G2374 of the sheepG3588G4263. 8All thatG3956 everG3745 cameG2064 beforeG4253 meG1473 areG1510 thievesG2812 andG2532 robbersG3027: butG235 the sheepG3588G4263 didG191 notG3756 hearG191 themG846. 9IG1473 amG1510 the doorG3588G2374: byG1223 meG1473 ifG1437 any manG5100 enter inG1525, he shall be savedG4982, andG2532 shall go inG1525 andG2532 outG1831, andG2532 findG2147 pastureG3542. 10The thiefG3588G2812 comethG2064 notG3756, butG1487G3361 forG2443 to stealG2813, andG2532 to killG2380, andG2532 to destroyG622: IG1473 am comeG2064 thatG2443 they might haveG2192 lifeG2222, andG2532 thatG2443 they might haveG2192 it more abundantlyG4053. 11IG1473 amG1510 theG3588G4166 goodG2570 shepherdG3588G4166: theG3588G4166 goodG2570 shepherdG3588G4166 givethG5087 hisG846 lifeG3588G5590 forG5228 the sheepG3588G4263. 12ButG1161 he that is an hirelingG3588G3411, andG2532 notG3756 the shepherdG4166, whoseG3739 ownG2398 the sheepG3588G4263 areG1510 notG3756, seethG2334 the wolfG3588G3074 comingG2064, andG2532 leavethG863 the sheepG3588G4263, andG2532 fleethG5343: andG2532 the wolfG3588G3074 catchethG726 themG846, andG2532 scatterethG4650 the sheepG3588G4263. 13The hirelingG3411 fleethG5343, becauseG3754 he isG1510 an hirelingG3411, andG2532 carethG3199 notG3756 forG4012 the sheepG3588G4263. 14IG1473 amG1510 theG3588G4166 goodG2570 shepherdG3588G4166, andG2532 knowG1097 myG1699 sheep, andG2532 am knownG1097 ofG5259 mineG1699. 15AsG2531 the FatherG3588G3962 knowethG1097 meG1473, even soG2504 know IG1097 the FatherG3588G3962: andG2532 I lay downG5087 myG1473 lifeG3588G5590 forG5228 the sheepG3588G4263. 16AndG2532 otherG243 sheepG4263 I haveG2192, whichG3739 areG1510 notG3756 ofG1537 thisG3778 foldG3588G833: them alsoG2548 IG1473 mustG1163 bringG71, andG2532 they shall hearG191 myG1473 voiceG3588G5456; andG2532 there shall beG1096 oneG1520 foldG4167, and oneG1520 shepherdG4166. 17ThereforeG1223 dothG25 my FatherG3588G3962 loveG25 meG1473, becauseG3754 IG1473 lay downG5087 myG1473 lifeG3588G5590, thatG2443 I might takeG2983 itG846 againG3825. 18No manG3762 takethG142 itG846 fromG575 meG1473, butG235 IG1473 layG5087 itG846 downG5087 ofG575 myselfG1683. I haveG2192 powerG1849 to layG5087 itG846 downG5087, andG2532 I haveG2192 powerG1849 to takeG2983 itG846 againG3825. ThisG3778 commandmentG3588G1785 have I receivedG2983 ofG3844 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962.
19There wasG1096 a divisionG4978 thereforeG3767 againG3825 amongG1722 the JewsG2453 forG1223 theseG3778 sayingsG3588G3056. 20AndG1161 many of themG4183 saidG3004, He hathG2192 a devilG1140, andG2532 is madG3105; whyG5101 hear yeG191 himG846? 21OthersG243 saidG3004, TheseG3778 areG1510 notG3756 the wordsG3588G4487 of him that hath a devilG1139. CanG1410 a devilG1140 openG455 the eyesG3788 of the blindG5185?
22AndG1161 it wasG1096 atG1722 JerusalemG3588G2414 the feast of the dedicationG3588G1456, andG2532 it wasG1510 winterG5494. 23AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 walkedG4043 inG1722 the templeG3588G2411 inG1722 Solomon’sG3588G4672 porchG3588G4745. 24ThenG3767 cameG2944 the JewsG2453 round aboutG2944 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, HowG4219 longG2193 dost thou makeG142 usG1473 to doubtG142? IfG1487 thouG4771 beG1510 the ChristG3588G5547, tellG3004 usG1473 plainlyG3954. 25JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 themG846, I toldG3004 youG4771, andG2532 ye believedG4100 notG3756: the worksG3588G2041 thatG3739 IG1473 doG4160 inG1722 myG1473 Father’sG3588G3962 nameG3588G3686, theyG3778 bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 meG1473. 26ButG235 yeG4771 believeG4100 notG3756, becauseG1063 ye areG1510 notG3756 ofG1537 myG1699 sheepG3588G4263, asG2531 I saidG3004 unto youG4771. 27MyG3588G1699 sheepG3588G4263 hearG191 myG1473 voiceG3588G5456, and IG2504 knowG1097 themG846, andG2532 they followG190 meG1473: 28And IG2504 giveG1325 unto themG846 eternalG166 lifeG2222; andG2532 they shallG622 neverG3756G3361 perishG622, neitherG3756 shallG726 anyG5100 man pluckG726 themG846 out ofG1537 myG1473 handG3588G5495. 29MyG1473 FatherG3588G3962, whichG3739 gaveG1325 them meG1473, isG1510 greater thanG3173 allG3956; andG2532 noG3762 man is able toG1410 pluckG726 them out ofG1537 myG1473 Father’sG3588G3962 handG3588G5495. 30IG1473 andG2532 my FatherG3588G3962 areG1510 oneG1520. 31ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 took upG941 stonesG3037 againG3825 toG2443 stoneG3034 himG846. 32JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 themG846, ManyG4183 goodG2570 worksG2041 have I shewedG1166 youG4771 fromG1537 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962; forG1223 whichG4169 of thoseG846 worksG2041 do ye stoneG3034 meG1473? 33The JewsG2453 answeredG611 himG846, sayingG3004, ForG4012 aG2041 goodG2570 workG2041 we stoneG3034 theeG4771 notG3756; butG235 forG4012 blasphemyG988; andG2532 because thatG3754 thouG4771, beingG1510 a manG444, makestG4160 thyselfG4572 GodG2316. 34JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 themG846, Is itG1510 notG3756 writtenG1125 inG1722 yourG4771 lawG3588G3551, IG1473 saidG3004, Ye areG1510 godsG2316? 35IfG1487 he calledG3004 themG1565 godsG2316, untoG4314 whomG3739 the wordG3588G3056 of GodG3588G2316 cameG1096, andG2532 the scriptureG3588G1124 cannotG3756G1410 be brokenG3089; 36SayG3004 yeG4771 ofG3004 him, whomG3739 the FatherG3588G3962 hath sanctifiedG37, andG2532 sentG649 intoG1519 the worldG3588G2889, Thou blasphemestG987; becauseG3754 I saidG3004, I amG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG3588G2316? 37IfG1487 I doG4160 notG3756 the worksG3588G2041 ofG3588G3962 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962, believeG4100 meG1473 notG3361. 38ButG1161 ifG1487 I doG4160, thoughG2579 ye believeG4100 notG3361 meG1473, believeG4100 the worksG3588G2041: thatG2443 ye may knowG1097, andG2532 believeG4100, thatG3754 the FatherG3588G3962 is inG1722 meG1473, and IG2504 inG1722 himG846. 39ThereforeG3767 they soughtG2212 againG3825 to takeG4084 himG846: butG2532 he escapedG1831 out ofG1537 theirG846 handG3588G5495, 40AndG2532 went awayG565 againG3825 beyondG4008 JordanG3588G2446 intoG1519 the placeG3588G5117 whereG3699 JohnG2491 at firstG4413 baptizedG907; andG2532 thereG1563 he abodeG3306. 41AndG2532 manyG4183 resortedG2064 untoG4314 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004, JohnG2491 didG4160 noG3762 miracleG4592: butG1161 all thingsG3956 thatG3745 JohnG2491 spakeG3004 ofG4012 this manG3778 wereG1510 trueG227. 42AndG2532 manyG4183 believedG4100 onG1519 himG846 thereG1563.
