John 10:1-5 ▼

1 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who is not entering through the door to the fold of the sheep, but is going up from another side, that one is a thief and a robber;

2 and he who is entering through the door is shepherd of the sheep;

3 the doorkeeper opens to this one, and the sheep hear his voice, and his own sheep he calls by name, and leads them forth;

4 and when he may put forth his own sheep, he goes on before them, and the sheep follow him, because they have known his voice;

5 and they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, because they have not known the voice of strangers.”
