1 "我实实在在告诉你们， 那不从门进羊圈， 倒从别处爬进去的， 那人就是贼， 就是强盗；
2 那从门进去的， 才是羊的牧人。
3 看门的给他开门， 羊也听他的声音； 他按着名字呼叫自己的羊， 领它们出来。
4 他把自己的羊领出来以后， 就走在前头， 羊也跟随他， 因为认得他的声音。
5 它们决不会跟随陌生人， 反而逃避他， 因为不认得陌生人的声音。"
6 耶稣对他们说了这个譬喻， 他们却不明白他所说的是什么。
7 于是耶稣又说： "我实实在在告诉你们， 我就是羊的门。
8 所有在我以先来的， 都是贼和强盗； 羊却不听从他们。
9 我就是门， 如果有人借着我进来， 就必定得救， 并且可以出、可以入， 也可以找到草场。
10 贼来了， 不过是要偷窃、杀害、毁坏； 我来了， 是要使羊得生命， 并且得的更丰盛。
11 我是好牧人， 好牧人为羊舍命。
12 那作雇工不是牧人的， 羊也不是自己的， 他一见狼来， 就把羊撇下逃跑， 狼就抓住羊群， 把他们驱散了；
13 因为他是个雇工， 对羊群漠不关心。
14 我是好牧人， 我认识我的羊， 我的羊也认识我，
15 好像父认识我， 我也认识父一样； 并且我为羊舍命。
16 我还有别的羊， 不在这羊圈里； 我必须把它们领来， 它们也要听我的声音， 并且要合成一群， 归于一个牧人。
17 父爱我， 因为我把生命舍去， 好再把它取回来。
18 没有人能夺去我的生命， 是我自己舍去的。我有权把生命舍去， 也有权把它取回来； 这是我从我的父所领受的命令。"
19 犹太人因着这些话又起了纷争。
20 他们当中有许多人说： "他是鬼附的， 他发疯了； 为什么要听他呢？"
21 另外有人说： "这话不是鬼附的人所说的。鬼怎能使瞎子的眼睛开了呢？"
22 在耶路撒冷， 献殿节到了， 那时是冬天。
23 耶稣在殿的所罗门廊上走过，
24 犹太人围着他， 对他说： "你使我们心里悬疑不定， 要到几时呢？如果你是基督， 就公开地告诉我们吧！ "
25 耶稣对他们说： "我已经告诉你们， 你们却不相信； 我奉我父的名所作的事， 可以为我作证。
26 只是你们不信， 因为你们不是我的羊。
27 我的羊听我的声音， 我也认识他们， 他们也跟随我。
28 我赐给他们永生， 他们永不灭亡， 谁也不能把他们从我手里夺去。
29 那位把羊群赐给我的父比一切都大， 也没有人能把他们从我父的手里夺去。
30 我与父原为一。"
31 犹太人又拿起石头要打他。
32 耶稣对他们说： "我把许多从父那里来的善事显给你们看， 你们因哪一件要用石头打我呢？"
33 犹太人对他说： "我们不是因为善事用石头打你， 而是因为你说了僭妄的话； 又因为你是个人， 竟然把自己当作 神。"
34 耶稣说： "你们的律法上不是写着‘我说你们是神’吗？
35 圣经是不能废除的， 如果那些承受 神的道的人， 神尚且称他们是神，
36 那么父所分别为圣又差到世上来的， 他自称是 神的儿子， 你们就说他说了僭妄 神的话吗？
37 我若不作我父的事， 你们就不必信我；
38 我若作了， 你们纵然不信我， 也应当信这些事， 好使你们确实知道， 我父是在我里面， 我也在父里面。"
39 他们又要逮捕耶稣， 他却从他们的手中逃脱了。
40 耶稣又往约旦河东去， 到约翰从前施洗的地方， 住在那里。
41 许多人到他那里去， 说： "约翰没有行过一件神迹， 但约翰指着这人所说的一切话， 都是真实的。"
42 在那里就有许多人信了耶稣。
1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4 When he hath put forth all his own, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers. 6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
7 Jesus therefore said unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All that came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. 9 I am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture. 10 The thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd layeth down his life for the sheep. 12 He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholdeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf snatcheth them, and scattereth them: 13 he fleeth because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd; and I know mine own, and mine own know me, 15 even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and they shall become one flock, one shepherd. 17 Therefore doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again. 18 No one taketh it away from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment received I from my Father.
19 There arose a division again among the Jews because of these words. 20 And many of them said, He hath a demon, and is mad; why hear ye him? 21 Others said, These are not the sayings of one possessed with a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?
22 And it was the feast of the dedication at Jerusalem: 23 it was winter; and Jesus was walking in the temple in Solomon’s porch. 24 The Jews therefore came round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou hold us in suspense? If thou art the Christ, tell us plainly. 25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believe not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, these bear witness of me. 26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, and no one shall snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who hath given them unto me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand. 30 I and the Father are one. 31 The Jews took up stones again to stone him. 32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I showed you from the Father; for which of those works do ye stone me? 33 The Jews answered him, For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God. 34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? 35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came (and the scripture cannot be broken), 36 say ye of him, whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God? 37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. 38 But if I do them, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father. 39 They sought again to take him: and he went forth out of their hand.
40 And he went away again beyond the Jordan into the place where John was at the first baptizing; and there he abode. 41 And many came unto him; and they said, John indeed did no sign: but all things whatsoever John spake of this man were true. 42 And many believed on him there.
