who were with him heard these words, and said to him:
Are we also blind? (41)Jesus said to them: If ye were blind, ye would
not have sin. But now ye say: We see. Your sin remains!

VERILY, verily, I say to you: He that enters not through the door into
the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a
robber. (2)But he that enters in through the door is a shepherd of the
sheep. (3)To him the porter opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and
he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. (4)And when he has
put forth all his own, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him,
for they know his voice. (5)And a stranger they will not follow, but
will flee from him; because they know not the voice of strangers.

(6)This parable spoke Jesus to them; but they understood not what
things they were which he spoke to them.

(7)Therefore said Jesus to them again: Verily, verily, I say to you, I
am the door of the sheep. (8)All who came before me are thieves and
robbers; but the sheep did not hear them. (9)I am the door. If any one
enter in through me, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out and
find pasture. (10)The thief comes not but to steal, and to kill, and
to destroy. I came that they may have life, and that they may have it
abundantly.

(11)I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for
the sheep. (12)But he that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose
own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and
flees; and the wolf catches them, and scatters the sheep. (13)The
hireling flees, because he is a hireling, and cares not for the sheep.
(14)I am the good shepherd; and I know mine, and am known by mine,
(15)as the Father knows me, and I know the Father; and I lay down my
life for the sheep. (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 flock, one shepherd. (17)For this the Father loves me,
because I lay down my life, that I may take it again. (18)No one takes
it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it
down, and I have authority to take it again. This commandment I
received from my Father.

(19)Again there arose a division among the Jews because of these
words. (20)And many of them said: He has a demon, and is mad, why do
ye hear him? (21)Others said: These are not the words of one that has
a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?
