约翰福音 10

好牧人

1 耶稣说：“我实实在在地告诉你们，不从门进羊圈而从别处爬进去的人就是贼，是强盗。2 从门进去的才是羊的牧人，3 看门的会给他开门，羊也听他的声音。他按名字叫自己的羊，把它们领出来。4 领出来之后，自己便走在前面，羊群也跟着他，因为羊认得他的声音。5 羊从不跟随陌生人，见了陌生人就逃跑，因为它们不认得陌生人的声音。”

6 耶稣讲了这个比喻，但听的人都不明白祂的意思。7 于是祂又说：“我实实在在地告诉你们，我就是羊的门。8 在我以前来的，都是贼，是强盗，羊不听从他们。9 我就是门，从我进来的必定得救，并且会安然出入，找到草吃。10 盗贼来，无非是要偷窃、杀害、毁坏。但我来是要羊得生命，并且得到丰盛的生命。

11 “我是好牧人，好牧人为羊舍命。12 如果是雇工，不是牧人，羊也不是他的，狼一来，他必撇下羊逃命。狼就会抓住羊，把羊群驱散。13 他逃走，因为他是雇工，并不在乎羊。14 我是好牧人，我认识我的羊，我的羊也认识我，15 正如父认识我，我也认识父，并且我为羊舍命。16 我还有别的羊不在这羊圈里，我必须领他们回来，他们也必听我的声音。这样，我所有的羊将要合成一群，由一个牧人来带领。17 父爱我，因为我舍弃自己的生命，为了再得回生命。18 没有人能夺走我的生命，我是甘心舍弃的。我有权舍弃，也有权得回，这是我从父那里得到的命令。”

19 犹太人因这番话又起了纷争。20 他们当中好些人说：“他被鬼附身了！他疯了！何必听他的？”

21 又有些人说：“被鬼附身的人不会说这种话的，鬼能医好瞎眼的人吗？”

被犹太人弃绝

22 耶路撒冷庆祝修殿节的时候到了，是在冬天。23 当耶稣走过圣殿的所罗门廊时，24 一群犹太人围着祂说：“你让我们困惑、猜疑要到什么时候呢？如果你是救主基督，就清楚地告诉我们吧！”

25 耶稣回答说：“我已经告诉你们了，你们却不信。我奉我父的名所行的神迹也为我做见证，26 只是你们不肯相信，因你们不是我的羊。27 我的羊听我的声音，我也认识他们，他们也跟随我。28 我要赐他们永生，他们永不灭亡。没有人能从我的手里把他们抢走。29 我父把羊赐给我，祂比万物都大，没有人能从祂手中把羊抢走。30 我和父本为一。”

31 于是犹太人又拿起石头要打祂。32 耶稣就问他们：“我将许多从父而来的美善之事显给你们看，你们为了哪一件事拿石头打我呢？”

33 犹太人回答说：“我们不是因为你做的善事打你，而是因为你说了亵渎的话，你是人，却把自己当作上帝。”

34 耶稣说：“你们的律法书上不是写着‘我曾说你们都是神’吗？35 圣经上的话是不能废的，既然上帝称那些承受祂道的人为神，36 那么我是父分别出来又差到世上来的，我说自己是上帝的儿子，难道是亵渎吗？37 如果我不做我父的事，你们不必信我。38 但如果我做了，你们纵然不信我，也应该相信我所做的事，这样你们就会知道、领悟父在我里面，我也在父里面。”

39 他们又要抓耶稣，但祂从他们手中逃脱了。

40 后来，耶稣到了约旦河东岸约翰从前施洗的地方，在那里住下来。41 许多人来到祂那里。他们说：“虽然约翰没有行过神迹，可是约翰所说关于这人的事全是真的。”42 在那里许多人信了耶稣。

John 10

Jesus as the Good Shepherd

1 “I tell you the solemn truth,t the one who does not enter the sheepfolds by the door,t but climbs in some other way, is a thief and a robber.2 The one who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.3 The doorkeeperts opens the doort for him,t and the sheep hear his voice. Het calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.s4 When he has brought all his own sheept out, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they recognizet his voice.5 They will never follow a stranger,t but will run away from him, because they do not recognizet the stranger’s voice.”t

6 Jesus told them this parable,s but theyt did not understandt what he was saying to them.
7 So Jesus said to them again, “I tell you the solemn truth,t I am the door for the sheep.t8 All who came before me weret thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.t9 I am the door. If anyone enters through me, he will be saved, and will come in and go out,t and find pasture.s

10 The thief comes only to steal and killt and destroy; I have come so that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.t
11 “I am the goodt shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his lifets for the sheep.12 The hired hand,s who is not a shepherd and does not own sheep, sees the wolf coming and abandonst the sheep and runs away.t So the wolf attackst the sheep and scatters them.

13 Because he is a hired hand and is not concerned about the sheep,t he runs away.s
14 “I am the good shepherd. It know my ownt and my own know me –15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father – and I lay down my lifet fort the sheep.16 I havet other sheep that do not come fromt this sheepfold.s I must bring them too, and they will listen to my voice,t so thatt there will be one flock andt one shepherd.17 This is why the Father loves met – because I lay down my life,t so that I may take it back again.

18 No one takes it away from me, but I lay it downt of my own free will.t I have the authorityt to lay it down, and I have the authorityt to take it back again. This commandmentt I received from my Father.”
19 Another sharp division took place among the Jewish peoplet because of these words.20 Many of them were saying, “He is possessed by a demon and has lost his mind!t Why do you listen to him?”

21 Others said, “These are not the wordst of someone possessed by a demon. A demon cannot cause the blind to see,t can it?”t

Jesus at the Feast of Dedication

22 Then came the feast of the Dedicationts in Jerusalem.s23 It was winter,s and Jesus was walking in the temple areat in Solomon’s Portico.ts24 The Jewish leaderst surrounded him and asked,t “How long will you keep us in suspense?t If you are the Christ,ts tell us plainly.”t25 Jesus replied,t “I told you and you do not believe. The deedst I do in my Father’s name testify about me.26 But you refuse to believe because you are not my sheep.27 My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.28 I givet them eternal life, and they will never perish;t no one will snatcht them from my hand.29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all,t and no one can snatcht them from my Father’s hand.

30 The Father and It are one.”t
31 The Jewish leaderst picked up rocks again to stone him to death.32 Jesus said to them,t “I have shown you many good deedst from the Father. For which one of them are you going to stone me?”

33 The Jewish leaderst replied,t “We are not going to stone you for a good deedt but for blasphemy,s becauset you, a man, are claiming to be God.”t
34 Jesus answered,t “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said, you are gods’?s35 If those people to whom the word of God came were called ‘gods’ (and the scripture cannot be broken),s36 do you say about the one whom the Father set apartt and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?37 If I do not performt the deedst of my Father, do not believe me.38 But if I do them, even if you do not believe me, believe the deeds,ts so that you may come to knowt and understand that I am in the Father and the Father is in me.”

39 Thens they attemptedt again to seize him, but he escaped their clutches.ts
40 Jesust went back across the Jordan Rivert again to the place where Johns had been baptizing at an earlier time,ts and he stayed there.41 Manyt came to him and began to say, “Johns performedt no miraculous sign, but everything John said about this mant was true!”

42 And many believed in Jesust there.
