John 10:16-21

English Standard Version

¹⁶ And ^(A)I have other sheep that are not of this fold. ^(B)I must bring them also, and ^(C)they will listen to my voice. So there will be ^(D)one flock, ^(E)one shepherd. ^17 (F)For this reason the Father loves me, ^(G)because ^(H)I lay down my life that I may take it up again. ^18 (I)No one takes it from me, but ^(J)I lay it down ^(K)of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and ^(L)I have authority to take it up again. ^(M)This charge I have received from my Father.”

^19 (N)There was again a division among the Jews because of these words. ²⁰ Many of them said, ^(O)“He has a demon, and ^(P)is insane; why listen to him?” ²¹ Others said, “These are not the words of one who is oppressed by a demon. ^(Q)Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?”
