⁴² And de they were eimi devoting proskartereō themselves to the ho teaching didachē of the ho apostles apostolos, · kai to the ho fellowship koinōnia, to the ho breaking klasis of ho bread artos, and kai to ho prayers proseuchē. ⁴³ Fear phobos came ginomai upon · de every pas soul psychē, and te many polys wonders teras and kai signs sēmeion were being done ginomai through dia the ho apostles apostolos. ⁴⁴ And de all pas who ho believed pisteuō were eimi together epi ho, · ho and kai had echō all hapas things in common koinos; ⁴⁵ and kai they were selling pipraskō their ho possessions ktēma and kai · ho belongings hyparxis and kai distributing diamerizō the proceeds autos to all pas, as kathoti anyone an tis had echō need chreia. ⁴⁶ And te every kata day hēmera, they continued to gather proskartereō together homothumadon in en the ho temple hieron, breaking klaō bread artos from house to kata house oikos, sharing metalambanō their food trophē with en joy agalliasis and kai simplicity aphelotēs of heart kardia, ⁴⁷ praising aineō · ho God theos, and kai finding echō favor charis with pros all holos the ho people laos.

10 “ I tell legō you hymeis the solemn amēn truth amēn, the ho one who does not mē enter eiserchomai the ho sheepfold aulē through dia the ho gate thura, · ho but alla climbs anabainō in by some other way allachothen, is eimi a thief kleptēs and kai a robber lēstēs. ² But de the ho one who enters eiserchomai by dia the ho gate thura is eimi the shepherd poimēn of the ho sheep probaton. ³ The ho watchman thurōros allows him houtos to enter anoigō, and kai the ho sheep probaton pay attention to akouō · ho his autos voice phōnē; · kai he calls phōneō · ho his idios own sheep probaton by kata name onoma and kai leads exagō them autos out. ⁴ When hotan he has brought out ekballō all pas · ho his idios own , he walks poreuō on ahead emprosthen of them autos, and kai the ho sheep probaton follow akoloutheō him autos because hoti they know oida · ho his autos voice phōnē. ⁵ They will akoloutheō never ou follow akoloutheō a stranger allotrios, · de but alla will run pheugō away from apo him autos, because hoti they do not ou know oida the ho voice phōnē of ho strangers allotrios.” ⁶ Jesus Iēsous told legō them autos this houtos · ho figurative paroimia story , · ho but de they ekeinos did not ou understand ginōskō what tis he was saying laleō to them autos.
