John 10: 1
- 10
|
| 1 |
"Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not
enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a
thief and a robber; |
| 2 |
but he who enters by the door is the
shepherd of the sheep. |
| 3 |
To him the gatekeeper opens; the sheep hear
his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
|
| 4 |
When he has brought out all his own, he goes
before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.
|
| 5 |
A stranger they will not follow, but they
will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers."
|
| 6 |
This figure Jesus used with them, but they
did not understand what he was saying to them. |
| 7 |
So Jesus again said to them, "Truly, truly,
I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. |
| 8 |
All who came before me are thieves and
robbers; but the sheep did not heed them. |
| 9 |
I am the door; if any one enters by me, he
will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. |
| 10 |
The thief comes only to steal and kill and
destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly. |
