John 10 - King James Version with Greek
Law History Wisdom Prophets Gospels Acts Epistles Apocalyptic
1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. | 1 ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ὁ μὴ εἰσερχόμενος διὰ τῆς θύρας εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τῶν προβάτων ἀλλὰ ἀναβαίνων ἀλλαχόθεν ἐκεῖνος κλέπτης ἐστὶν καὶ λῃστής· | |
2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. | 2 ὁ δὲ εἰσερχόμενος διὰ τῆς θύρας ποιμήν ἐστιν τῶν προβάτων. | |
3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. | 3 τούτῳ ὁ θυρωρὸς ἀνοίγει, καὶ τὰ πρόβατα τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ ἀκούει, καὶ τὰ ἴδια πρόβατα φωνεῖ κατ᾽ ὄνομα καὶ ἐξάγει αὐτά. | |
4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. | 4 ὅταν τὰ ἴδια πάντα ἐκβάλῃ, ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν πορεύεται, καὶ τὰ πρόβατα αὐτῶ ἀκολουθεῖ, ὅτι οἴδασιν τὴν φωνὴν αὐτοῦ· | |
5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers. | 5 ἀλλοτρίῳ δὲ οὐ μὴ ἀκολουθήσουσιν ἀλλὰ φεύξονται ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι οὐκ οἴδασιν τῶν ἀλλοτρίων τὴν φωνήν. | |
6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them. | 6 ταύτην τὴν παροιμίαν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ ἰησοῦς· ἐκεῖνοι δὲ οὐκ ἔγνωσαν τίνα ἦν ἃ ἐλάλει αὐτοῖς. | |
7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. | 7 εἶπεν οὗν πάλιν ὁ ἰησοῦς, ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ θύρα τῶν προβάτων. | |
8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. | 8 πάντες ὅσοι ἦλθον [πρὸ ἐμοῦ] κλέπται εἰσὶν καὶ λῃσταί· ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ ἤκουσαν αὐτῶν τὰ πρόβατα. | |
9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. | 9 ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ θύρα· δι᾽ ἐμοῦ ἐάν τις εἰσέλθῃ σωθήσεται καὶ εἰσελεύσεται καὶ ἐξελεύσεται καὶ νομὴν εὑρήσει. | |
10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. | 10 ὁ κλέπτης οὐκ ἔρχεται εἰ μὴ ἵνα κλέψῃ καὶ θύσῃ καὶ ἀπολέσῃ· ἐγὼ ἦλθον ἵνα ζωὴν ἔχωσιν καὶ περισσὸν ἔχωσιν. | |
11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. | 11 ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ποιμὴν ὁ καλός· ὁ ποιμὴν ὁ καλὸς τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ τίθησιν ὑπὲρ τῶν προβάτων· | |
12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. | 12 ὁ μισθωτὸς καὶ οὐκ ὢν ποιμήν, οὖ οὐκ ἔστιν τὰ πρόβατα ἴδια, θεωρεῖ τὸν λύκον ἐρχόμενον καὶ ἀφίησιν τὰ πρόβατα καὶ φεύγει _ καὶ ὁ λύκος ἁρπάζει αὐτὰ καὶ σκορπίζει _ | |
13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. | 13 ὅτι μισθωτός ἐστιν καὶ οὐ μέλει αὐτῶ περὶ τῶν προβάτων. | |
14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. | 14 ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ποιμὴν ὁ καλός, καὶ γινώσκω τὰ ἐμὰ καὶ γινώσκουσί με τὰ ἐμά, | |
15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. | 15 καθὼς γινώσκει με ὁ πατὴρ κἀγὼ γινώσκω τὸν πατέρα· καὶ τὴν ψυχήν μου τίθημι ὑπὲρ τῶν προβάτων. | |
16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. | 16 καὶ ἄλλα πρόβατα ἔχω ἃ οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τῆς αὐλῆς ταύτης· κἀκεῖνα δεῖ με ἀγαγεῖν, καὶ τῆς φωνῆς μου ἀκούσουσιν, καὶ γενήσονται μία ποίμνη, εἷς ποιμήν. | |
17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. | 17 διὰ τοῦτό με ὁ πατὴρ ἀγαπᾷ ὅτι ἐγὼ τίθημι τὴν ψυχήν μου, ἵνα πάλιν λάβω αὐτήν. | |
18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. | 18 οὐδεὶς αἴρει αὐτὴν ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ, ἀλλ᾽ ἐγὼ τίθημι αὐτὴν ἀπ᾽ ἐμαυτοῦ. ἐξουσίαν ἔχω θεῖναι αὐτήν, καὶ ἐξουσίαν ἔχω πάλιν λαβεῖν αὐτήν· ταύτην τὴν ἐντολὴν ἔλαβον παρὰ τοῦ πατρός μου. | |
19 There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings. | 19 σχίσμα πάλιν ἐγένετο ἐν τοῖς ἰουδαίοις διὰ τοὺς λόγους τούτους. | |
20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him? | 20 ἔλεγον δὲ πολλοὶ ἐξ αὐτῶν, δαιμόνιον ἔχει καὶ μαίνεται· τί αὐτοῦ ἀκούετε; | |
21 Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind? | 21 ἄλλοι ἔλεγον, ταῦτα τὰ ῥήματα οὐκ ἔστιν δαιμονιζομένου· μὴ δαιμόνιον δύναται τυφλῶν ὀφθαλμοὺς ἀνοῖξαι; | |
22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter. | 22 ἐγένετο τότε τὰ ἐγκαίνια ἐν τοῖς ἱεροσολύμοις· χειμὼν ἦν, | |
23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch. | 23 καὶ περιεπάτει ὁ ἰησοῦς ἐν τῶ ἱερῶ ἐν τῇ στοᾷ τοῦ σολομῶνος. | |
24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. | 24 ἐκύκλωσαν οὗν αὐτὸν οἱ ἰουδαῖοι καὶ ἔλεγον αὐτῶ, ἕως πότε τὴν ψυχὴν ἡμῶν αἴρεις; εἰ σὺ εἶ ὁ χριστός, εἰπὲ ἡμῖν παρρησίᾳ. | |
25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. | 25 ἀπεκρίθη αὐτοῖς ὁ ἰησοῦς, εἶπον ὑμῖν καὶ οὐ πιστεύετε· τὰ ἔργα ἃ ἐγὼ ποιῶ ἐν τῶ ὀνόματι τοῦ πατρός μου ταῦτα μαρτυρεῖ περὶ ἐμοῦ· | |
26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. | 26 ἀλλὰ ὑμεῖς οὐ πιστεύετε, ὅτι οὐκ ἐστὲ ἐκ τῶν προβάτων τῶν ἐμῶν. | |
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: | 27 τὰ πρόβατα τὰ ἐμὰ τῆς φωνῆς μου ἀκούουσιν, κἀγὼ γινώσκω αὐτά, καὶ ἀκολουθοῦσίν μοι, | |
28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. | 28 κἀγὼ δίδωμι αὐτοῖς ζωὴν αἰώνιον, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀπόλωνται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, καὶ οὐχ ἁρπάσει τις αὐτὰ ἐκ τῆς χειρός μου. | |
29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. | 29 ὁ πατήρ μου ὃ δέδωκέν μοι πάντων μεῖζόν ἐστιν, καὶ οὐδεὶς δύναται ἁρπάζειν ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ πατρός. | |
30 I and my Father are one. | 30 ἐγὼ καὶ ὁ πατὴρ ἕν ἐσμεν. | |
31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him. | 31 ἐβάστασαν πάλιν λίθους οἱ ἰουδαῖοι ἵνα λιθάσωσιν αὐτόν. | |
32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me? | 32 ἀπεκρίθη αὐτοῖς ὁ ἰησοῦς, πολλὰ ἔργα καλὰ ἔδειξα ὑμῖν ἐκ τοῦ πατρός· διὰ ποῖον αὐτῶν ἔργον ἐμὲ λιθάζετε; | |
33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God. | 33 ἀπεκρίθησαν αὐτῶ οἱ ἰουδαῖοι, περὶ καλοῦ ἔργου οὐ λιθάζομέν σε ἀλλὰ περὶ βλασφημίας, καὶ ὅτι σὺ ἄνθρωπος ὢν ποιεῖς σεαυτὸν θεόν. | |
34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? | 34 ἀπεκρίθη αὐτοῖς [ὁ] ἰησοῦς, οὐκ ἔστιν γεγραμμένον ἐν τῶ νόμῳ ὑμῶν ὅτι ἐγὼ εἶπα, θεοί ἐστε; | |
35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken; | 35 εἰ ἐκείνους εἶπεν θεοὺς πρὸς οὓς ὁ λόγος τοῦ θεοῦ ἐγένετο, καὶ οὐ δύναται λυθῆναι ἡ γραφή, | |
36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God? | 36 ὃν ὁ πατὴρ ἡγίασεν καὶ ἀπέστειλεν εἰς τὸν κόσμον ὑμεῖς λέγετε ὅτι βλασφημεῖς, ὅτι εἶπον, υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ εἰμι; | |
37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. | 37 εἰ οὐ ποιῶ τὰ ἔργα τοῦ πατρός μου, μὴ πιστεύετέ μοι· | |
38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him. | 38 εἰ δὲ ποιῶ, κἂν ἐμοὶ μὴ πιστεύητε, τοῖς ἔργοις πιστεύετε, ἵνα γνῶτε καὶ γινώσκητε ὅτι ἐν ἐμοὶ ὁ πατὴρ κἀγὼ ἐν τῶ πατρί. | |
39 Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand, | 39 ἐζήτουν [οὗν] αὐτὸν πάλιν πιάσαι· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς αὐτῶν. | |
40 And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode. | 40 καὶ ἀπῆλθεν πάλιν πέραν τοῦ ἰορδάνου εἰς τὸν τόπον ὅπου ἦν ἰωάννης τὸ πρῶτον βαπτίζων, καὶ ἔμεινεν ἐκεῖ. | |
41 And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man were true. | 41 καὶ πολλοὶ ἦλθον πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ ἔλεγον ὅτι ἰωάννης μὲν σημεῖον ἐποίησεν οὐδέν, πάντα δὲ ὅσα εἶπεν ἰωάννης περὶ τούτου ἀληθῆ ἦν. | |
42 And many believed on him there. | 42 καὶ πολλοὶ ἐπίστευσαν εἰς αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ. | |
