耶穌是好牧人

10 “我實實在在告訴你們,那不從門進羊圈,倒從別處爬進去的,那人就是賊,就是強盜; 那從門進去的,才是羊的牧人。 看門的給他開門,羊也聽他的聲音;他按著名字呼叫自己的羊,領牠們出來。 他把自己的羊領出來以後,就走在前頭,羊也跟隨他,因為認得他的聲音。 牠們決不會跟隨陌生人,反而逃避他,因為不認得陌生人的聲音。” 耶穌對他們說了這個譬喻,他們卻不明白他所說的是甚麼。

於是耶穌又說:“我實實在在告訴你們,我就是羊的門。 所有在我以先來的,都是賊和強盜;羊卻不聽從他們。 我就是門,如果有人藉著我進來,就必定得救,並且可以出、可以入,也可以找到草場。 10 賊來了,不過是要偷竊、殺害、毀壞;我來了,是要使羊得生命,並且得的更豐盛。 11 我是好牧人,好牧人為羊捨命。 12 那作雇工不是牧人的,羊也不是自己的,他一見狼來,就把羊撇下逃跑,狼就抓住羊群,把他們驅散了; 13 因為他是個雇工,對羊群漠不關心。 14 我是好牧人,我認識我的羊,我的羊也認識我, 15 好像父認識我,我也認識父一樣;並且我為羊捨命。 16 我還有別的羊,不在這羊圈裡;我必須把牠們領來,牠們也要聽我的聲音,並且要合成一群,歸於一個牧人。 17 父愛我,因為我把生命捨去,好再把它取回來。 18 沒有人能奪去我的生命,是我自己捨去的。我有權把生命捨去,也有權把它取回來;這是我從我的父所領受的命令。”

19 猶太人因著這些話又起了紛爭。 20 他們當中有許多人說:“他是鬼附的,他發瘋了;為甚麼要聽他呢?” 21 另外有人說:“這話不是鬼附的人所說的。鬼怎能使瞎子的眼睛開了呢?”

猶太人棄絕耶穌

22 在耶路撒冷,獻殿節到了,那時是冬天。 23 耶穌在殿的所羅門廊上走過, 24 猶太人圍著他,對他說:“你使我們心裡懸疑不定,要到幾時呢?如果你是基督,就公開地告訴我們吧!” 25 耶穌對他們說:“我已經告訴你們,你們卻不相信;我奉我父的名所作的事,可以為我作證。 26 只是你們不信,因為你們不是我的羊。 27 我的羊聽我的聲音,我也認識他們,他們也跟隨我。 28 我賜給他們永生,他們永不滅亡,誰也不能把他們從我手裡奪去。 29 那位把羊群賜給我的父比一切都大,也沒有人能把他們從我父的手裡奪去。 30 我與父原為一。”

31 猶太人又拿起石頭要打他。 32 耶穌對他們說:“我把許多從父那裡來的善事顯給你們看,你們因哪一件要用石頭打我呢?” 33 猶太人對他說:“我們不是因為善事用石頭打你,而是因為你說了僭妄的話;又因為你是個人,竟然把自己當作 神。” 34 耶穌說:“你們的律法上不是寫著‘我說你們是神’嗎? 35 聖經是不能廢除的,如果那些承受 神的道的人, 神尚且稱他們是神, 36 那麼父所分別為聖又差到世上來的,他自稱是 神的兒子,你們就說他說了僭妄 神的話嗎? 37 我若不作我父的事,你們就不必信我; 38 我若作了,你們縱然不信我,也應當信這些事,好使你們確實知道,我父是在我裡面,我也在父裡面。” 39 他們又要逮捕耶穌,他卻從他們的手中逃脫了。

40 耶穌又往約旦河東去,到約翰從前施洗的地方,住在那裡。 41 許多人到他那裡去,說:“約翰沒有行過一件神蹟,但約翰指著這人所說的一切話,都是真實的。” 42 在那裡就有許多人信了耶穌。

10 “Anyone refusing to walk through the gate into a sheepfold, who sneaks over the wall, must surely be a thief! For a shepherd comes through the gate. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep hear his voice and come to him; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. He walks ahead of them; and they follow him, for they recognize his voice. They won’t follow a stranger but will run from him, for they don’t recognize his voice.”

Those who heard Jesus use this illustration didn’t understand what he meant, so he explained it to them.

“I am the Gate for the sheep,” he said. “All others who came before me were thieves and robbers. But the true sheep did not listen to them. Yes, I am the Gate. Those who come in by way of the Gate will be saved and will go in and out and find green pastures. 10 The thief’s purpose is to steal, kill and destroy. My purpose is to give life in all its fullness.

11 “I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 A hired man will run when he sees a wolf coming and will leave the sheep, for they aren’t his and he isn’t their shepherd. And so the wolf leaps on them and scatters the flock. 13 The hired man runs because he is hired and has no real concern for the sheep.

14 “I am the Good Shepherd and know my own sheep, and they know me, 15 just as my Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 I have other sheep, too, in another fold. I must bring them also, and they will heed my voice; and there will be one flock with one Shepherd.

17 “The Father loves me because I lay down my life that I may have it back again. 18 No one can kill me without my consent—I lay down my life voluntarily. For I have the right and power to lay it down when I want to and also the right and power to take it again. For the Father has given me this right.”

19 When he said these things, the Jewish leaders were again divided in their opinions about him. 20 Some of them said, “He has a demon or else is crazy. Why listen to a man like that?”

21 Others said, “This doesn’t sound to us like a man possessed by a demon! Can a demon open the eyes of blind men?”

22-23 It was winter,[a] and Jesus was in Jerusalem at the time of the Dedication Celebration. He was at the Temple, walking through the section known as Solomon’s Hall. 24 The Jewish leaders surrounded him and asked, “How long are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly.”

25 “I have already told you,[b] and you don’t believe me,” Jesus replied. “The proof is in the miracles I do in the name of my Father. 26 But you don’t believe me because you are not part of my flock. 27 My sheep recognize my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life and they shall never perish. No one shall snatch them away from me, 29 for my Father has given them to me, and he is more powerful than anyone else, so no one can kidnap them from me. 30 I and the Father are one.”

31 Then again the Jewish leaders picked up stones to kill him.

32 Jesus said, “At God’s direction I have done many a miracle to help the people. For which one are you killing me?”

33 They replied, “Not for any good work, but for blasphemy; you, a mere man, have declared yourself to be God.”

34-36 “In your own Law it says that men are gods!” he replied. “So if the Scripture, which cannot be untrue, speaks of those as gods to whom the message of God came, do you call it blasphemy when the one sanctified and sent into the world by the Father says, ‘I am the Son of God’? 37 Don’t believe me unless I do miracles of God. 38 But if I do, believe them even if you don’t believe me. Then you will become convinced that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.”

39 Once again they started to arrest him. But he walked away and left them, 40 and went beyond the Jordan River to stay near the place where John was first baptizing. 41 And many followed him.

“John didn’t do miracles,” they remarked to one another, “but all his predictions concerning this man have come true.” 42 And many came to the decision that he was the Messiah.[c]

10  Bizony, bizony mondom néktek: A ki nem az ajtón megy be a juhok aklába, hanem másunnan hág be, tolvaj az és rabló.

A ki pedig az ajtón megy be, a juhok pásztora az.

Ennek az ajtónálló [ajtót] nyit; és a juhok hallgatnak annak szavára; és a maga juhait nevökön szólítja, és kivezeti õket.

És mikor kiereszti az õ juhait, elõttök megy; és a juhok követik õt, mert ismerik az õ hangját.

Idegent pedig nem követnek, hanem elfutnak attól: mert nem ismerik az idegenek hangját.

Ezt a példázatot mondá nékik Jézus; de õk nem értették, mi az, a mit szól vala nékik.

Újra monda azért nékik Jézus: Bizony, bizony mondom néktek, hogy én vagyok a juhoknak ajtaja.

Mindazok, a kik elõttem jöttek, tolvajok és rablók: de nem hallgattak rájok a juhok.

Én vagyok az ajtó: ha valaki én rajtam megy be, megtartatik és bejár és kijár majd, és legelõt talál.

10 A tolvaj nem egyébért jõ, hanem hogy lopjon és öljön és pusztítson; én azért jöttem, hogy életök legyen, és bõvölködjenek.

11 Én vagyok a jó pásztor: a jó pásztor életét adja a juhokért.

12 A béres pedig és a ki nem pásztor, a kinek a juhok nem tulajdonai, látja a farkast jõni, és elhagyja a juhokat, és elfut: és a farkas elragadozza azokat, és elszéleszti a juhokat.

13 A béres pedig [azért] fut el, mert béres, és nincs gondja a juhokra.

14 Én vagyok a jó pásztor; és ismerem az enyéimet, és engem [is] ismernek az enyéim,

15 A miként ismer engem az Atya, és én [is] ismerem az Atyát; és életemet adom a juhokért.

16 Más juhaim is vannak nékem, a melyek nem ebbõl az akolból valók: azokat is elõ kell hoznom, és hallgatnak majd az én szómra; és lészen egy akol [és] egy pásztor.

17 Azért szeret engem az Atya, mert én leteszem az én életemet, hogy újra felvegyem azt.

18 Senki sem veszi azt el én tõlem, hanem én teszem le azt én magamtól. Van hatalmam letenni azt, és van hatalmam ismét felvenni azt. Ezt a parancsolatot vettem az én Atyámtól.

19 Újra hasonlás lõn a zsidók között e beszédek miatt.

20 És sokan mondják vala közülök: Ördög van benne és bolondozik, mit hallgattok reá?

21 Mások mondának: Ezek nem ördöngõsnek beszédei. Vajjon az ördög megnyithatja-é a vakok szemeit?

22 Lõn pedig Jeruzsálemben a templomszentelés ünnepe: és tél vala;

23 És Jézus a templomban, a Salamon tornáczában jár vala.

24 Körülvevék azért õt a zsidók, és mondának néki: Meddig tartasz még bizonytalanságban bennünket? Ha te vagy a Krisztus, mondd meg nékünk nyilván!

25 Felele nékik Jézus: Megmondtam néktek, és nem hiszitek: a cselekedetek, a melyeket én cselekszem az én Atyám nevében, azok tesznek bizonyságot rólam.

26 De ti nem hisztek, mert ti nem az én juhaim közül vagytok. A mint megmondtam néktek:

27 Az én juhaim hallják az én szómat, és én ismerem õket, és követnek engem:

28 És én örök életet adok nékik; és soha örökké el nem vesznek, és senki ki nem ragadja õket az én kezembõl.

29 Az én Atyám, a ki [azokat] adta nékem, nagyobb mindeneknél; és senki sem ragadhatja ki [azokat] az én Atyámnak kezébõl.

30 Én és az Atya egy vagyunk.

31 Ismét köveket ragadának azért a zsidók, hogy megkövezzék õt.

32 Felele nékik Jézus: Sok jó dolgot mutattam néktek az én Atyámtól; azok közül melyik dologért köveztek meg engem?

33 Felelének néki a zsidók, mondván: Jó dologért nem kövezünk meg téged, hanem káromlásért, tudniillik, hogy te ember létedre Istenné teszed magadat.

34 Felele nékik Jézus: Nincs-é megírva a ti törvényetekben: Én mondám: Istenek vagytok?

35 Ha azokat isteneknek mondá, a kikhez az Isten beszéde lõn (és az írás fel nem bontható),

36 Arról mondjátok-é ti, a kit az Atya megszentelt és elküldött e világra: Káromlást szólsz; mivelhogy azt mondám: Az Isten Fia vagyok?!

37 Ha az én Atyám dolgait nem cselekszem, ne higyjetek nékem;

38 Ha pedig azokat cselekszem, ha nékem nem hisztek is, higyjetek a cselekedeteknek: hogy megtudjátok és elhigyjétek, hogy az Atya én bennem van, és én õ benne vagyok.

39 Ismét meg akarák azért õt fogni; de kiméne az õ kezökbõl.

40 És újra elméne túl a Jordánon, arra a helyre, a hol János elõször keresztelt vala; és ott marada.

41 És sokan menének õ hozzá és mondják vala, hogy: János nem tett ugyan semmi csodát; de mindaz, a mit János e felõl mondott, igaz vala.

42 És sokan hivének ott õ benne.

The Good Shepherd and His Sheep

10 “Very truly I tell you Pharisees, anyone who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber.(A) The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep.(B) The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice.(C) He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.(D) When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice.(E) But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.” Jesus used this figure of speech,(F) but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them.(G)

Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am(H) the gate(I) for the sheep. All who have come before me(J) are thieves and robbers,(K) but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved.[a] They will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life,(L) and have it to the full.(M)

11 “I am(N) the good shepherd.(O) The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.(P) 12 The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away.(Q) Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. 13 The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.

14 “I am the good shepherd;(R) I know my sheep(S) and my sheep know me— 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father(T)—and I lay down my life for the sheep.(U) 16 I have other sheep(V) that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock(W) and one shepherd.(X) 17 The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life(Y)—only to take it up again. 18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord.(Z) I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.”(AA)

19 The Jews who heard these words were again divided.(AB) 20 Many of them said, “He is demon-possessed(AC) and raving mad.(AD) Why listen to him?”

21 But others said, “These are not the sayings of a man possessed by a demon.(AE) Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?”(AF)

Further Conflict Over Jesus’ Claims

22 Then came the Festival of Dedication[b] at Jerusalem. It was winter, 23 and Jesus was in the temple courts walking in Solomon’s Colonnade.(AG) 24 The Jews(AH) who were there gathered around him, saying, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly.”(AI)

25 Jesus answered, “I did tell you,(AJ) but you do not believe. The works I do in my Father’s name testify about me,(AK) 26 but you do not believe because you are not my sheep.(AL) 27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them,(AM) and they follow me.(AN) 28 I give them eternal life,(AO) and they shall never perish;(AP) no one will snatch them out of my hand.(AQ) 29 My Father, who has given them to me,(AR) is greater than all[c];(AS) no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. 30 I and the Father are one.”(AT)

31 Again his Jewish opponents picked up stones to stone him,(AU) 32 but Jesus said to them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?”

33 “We are not stoning you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.”(AV)

34 Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your Law,(AW) ‘I have said you are “gods”’[d]?(AX) 35 If he called them ‘gods,’ to whom the word of God(AY) came—and Scripture cannot be set aside(AZ) 36 what about the one whom the Father set apart(BA) as his very own(BB) and sent into the world?(BC) Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, ‘I am God’s Son’?(BD) 37 Do not believe me unless I do the works of my Father.(BE) 38 But if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.”(BF) 39 Again they tried to seize him,(BG) but he escaped their grasp.(BH)

40 Then Jesus went back across the Jordan(BI) to the place where John had been baptizing in the early days. There he stayed, 41 and many people came to him. They said, “Though John never performed a sign,(BJ) all that John said about this man was true.”(BK) 42 And in that place many believed in Jesus.(BL)
