牧人与他的羊群

10 “我实话告诉你们,一个人进羊圈,如果不从门进,而是通过其它方式进去,他就是贼,是强盗。 从圈门进的人是羊群的牧人, 看门的人为他打开门,羊群听从他的声音,他点名叫他的羊,带它们出去。 它们被放出去后,他又走在羊群前面,羊群跟随着他,因为它们认得他的声音。 它们绝不会跟随陌生人走,相反,它们会从生人身边跑开,因为,它们不认陌生人的声音。” 耶稣给他们用了这个比喻,但是,他们却不明白他的意思。

耶稣是好牧人

耶稣又说∶“我实话告诉你们,我就是羊圈的门。 在我之前来的人都是小偷、强盗,而且羊群也不听他们的。 我就是这扇门,从我这扇门进来的人将得救。他既能进又能出,他将会找到牧场。 10 小偷来只会偷、会杀、会破坏。我来是为了让他们获得生命—那是富足和美好的生命。

11 “我是个好牧人,好牧人会为羊群献出生命, 12 雇工不是牧人,羊群也不是他的,所以当他看到狼来时,就会丢下羊群逃跑,狼袭击羊群,驱散它们。 13 雇工是雇来的,所以,他不关心羊群。

14 “我是个好牧人,我认识我的羊,我的羊也认识我, 15 就像父亲认识我,我也认识父亲一样。我为羊群献出了生命, 16 我还有些羊,它们不属于这个羊群,我也得把它们带来。它们也会听我的声音,并且要合成一群,由一个人放牧。 17 父爱我是因为我献出了自己的生命。我献出了自己的生命为的是我能重新得到它,没有人能从我这里把生命夺走。 18 我是心甘情愿地牺牲它的。我有权牺牲它的,也有权收回它,这条命令是我从我父亲那里领受的。”

19 因为这段话,犹太人之间又发生了分歧。 20 他们当中许多人说∶“他被鬼附体,神志不清,你们为什么还要听他的呢?”

21 另外一些人却说∶“这些话不是被鬼附体的人能说的,鬼能让瞎子睁开眼睛吗?”

犹太首领反对耶稣

22 他们到耶路撒冷过修殿节 [a],此时正值冬季, 23 耶稣走在大殿院所罗门廊 [b]里, 24 犹太人围着他问∶“你还要让我们猜多久呢?如果你是基督,就坦白告诉我们。”

25 耶稣回答他们说∶“我已经告诉你们了,你们却不信,我以我父的名义所行的奇迹为我作证, 26 但是,你们也不信,因为你们不是我羊群里的羊, 27 我的羊听我的话,我认识他们,他们跟我走, 28 我赐给他们永生,他们永不会灭亡,没有人能从我手里把它们夺走。 29 我父赐给我的羊比任何事情都重要,没有人能从我父手中把它们夺走。 30 父和我是一体。”

31 犹太人又抓起石头打他, 32 耶稣说∶“我让你们看到了父亲的许多善迹,你们为了哪桩善迹而打我呢?”

33 犹太人说∶“我们不是因为善迹而打你,我们打你,是因为你亵渎上帝,你一个凡人竟想把自己树为上帝!”

34 耶稣说∶“你们律法上难道没有写着‘我(上帝)说过你们是诸神。’ [c]吗? 35 《经》称那些领受过上帝的信息的人为神,《经》上的话总是真实的。 36 那么为什么因为我说‘我是上帝之子’,你们却说我在亵渎上帝呢?我是上帝所挑选并被派遣到世上的那位。 37 如果我不是做我父的工作,就不要相信我, 38 可是,如果我做了,即使你们不相信我,也该相信这些工作,使你们能意识到父中有我,我中有父。”

39 他们又试图逮捕他,但是,他却从他们手底下逃脱了。 40 耶稣渡过约旦河,回到以前约翰施洗礼的地方,在那里住了下来。 41 许多人来到他身边说∶“约翰虽然没有行过任何奇迹,可他说的有关这个人的话都是真的!” 42 于是,那里有许多人信仰了他。

10 1 Christ proveth that the Pharisees are the evil shepherds, 8 and by many reasons, that himself 11, 14 is the good shepherd: 19 And thereof dissension ariseth. 31 They take up stones, 39 and go about to take him, but he escapeth.

Verily, [a]verily I say unto you, He that entereth not in by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up another way, he is a thief and a robber.

But he that goeth in by the door, is the shepherd of the sheep.

To him the [b]porter openeth, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.

And when he hath sent forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.

And they will not follow a stranger, but they flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.

This [c]parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.

Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily I say unto you, I am that door of the sheep.

[d]All that [e]ever came before me, are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.

[f]I am that door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall [g]go in, and go out, and find pasture.

10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and have it in abundance.

11 (A)I am that good shepherd: that good shepherd giveth his life for his sheep.

12 But an hireling, and he which is not the shepherd, neither the sheep are his own, seeth the wolf coming, and he leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.

13 So the hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

14 I am that good shepherd, and know mine, and am known of mine.

15 As the Father [h]knoweth me, so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for my sheep.

16 [i]Other sheep I have also, which are not of this fold: them also must I bring, and they shall hear my voice: and (B)there shall be [j]one sheepfold, and one shepherd.

17 [k]Therefore doth my Father love me, because (C)[l]I lay down my life, that I might take it again.

18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself: I have power to lay it down, and have power to take it again: this (D)commandment have I received of my Father.

19 [m]Then there was a dissension again among the Jews for these sayings.

20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad: why hear ye him?

21 Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil: can the devil open the eyes of the blind?

22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the [n]Dedication, and it was winter.

23 [o]And Jesus walked in the Temple, in Solomon’s porch.

24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be that Christ, tell us plainly.

25 [p]Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believe not: the works that I do in my Father’s Name, they bear witness of me.

26 [q]But ye believe not: [r]for ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.

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, neither shall any pluck them out of mine hand.

29 My Father which gave them me, is greater than all, and none is able to take them out of my Father’s hand.

30 I and my Father are one.

31 (E)[s]Then the Jews again took up stones, to stone him.

32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I showed you from my [t]Father: for which of these works do ye stone me?

33 The Jews answered him, saying, For the good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy, and that thou being a man, makest thyself God.

34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your Law, (F)I said, Ye are gods?

35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God was given, and the Scripture cannot be [u]broken,

36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath 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, then though ye believe not me, yet believe the works, that ye may know and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.

39 [v]Again they went about to take him: but he escaped out of their hands,

40 And went again beyond Jordan, into the place where John first baptized, and there abode.

41 And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man, were true.

42 And many believed in him there.
