10 The thief comes only to steal and ^ekill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. 11 ^fI am the good shepherd. The good shepherd ^glays down his life for the sheep. 12 He who is ^ha hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and ⁱleaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and ^jscatters them. 13 He flees because ^khe is a hired hand and ^lcares nothing for the sheep. 14 ^mI am the good shepherd. ⁿI know my own and ^omy own know me, 15 ^pjust as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and ^qI lay down my life for the sheep. 16 And ^rI have other sheep that are not of this fold. ^sI must bring them also, and ^tthey will listen to my voice. So there will be ^uone flock, ^vone shepherd. 17 ^wFor this reason the Father loves me, ^xbecause ^yI lay down my life that I may take it up again. 18 ^zNo one takes it from me, but ^yI lay it down ^aof my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and ^bI have authority to take it up again. ^cThis charge I have received from my Father.”

19 ^dThere was again a division among the Jews because of these words. 20 Many of them said, ^e“He has a demon, and ^fis insane; why listen to him?” 21 Others said, “These are not the words of one who is oppressed by a demon. ^gCan a demon open the eyes of the blind?”

22 At that time the Feast of Dedication took place at Jerusalem. It was winter, 23 and Jesus was walking in the temple, ^hin the colonnade of Solomon. 24 So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are ⁱthe Christ, ^jtell us plainly.” 25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. ^kThe works that I do ^lin my Father’s name bear witness about me, 26 but ^myou do not believe because you are not among my sheep. 27 ⁿMy sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 28 ^oI give them eternal life, and ^pthey will never perish, and ^qno one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, ^rwho has given them to me,^{1 s}is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of ^tthe Father’s hand. 30 ^uI and the Father are one.”

31 ^vThe Jews picked up stones again to stone him. 32 Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you going to stone me?” 33 The Jews answered him, “It is not for a good work that we are going to stone you but ^wfor blasphemy, because you, being a man, ^xmake yourself God.”
