John

The Gospel according to Saint John, chapter 10, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 10 Vulgate

   1 "Amen, amen dico vobis: Qui non intrat per ostium in ovile ovium, sed ascendit aliunde, ille fur est et latro;
   2 qui autem intrat per ostium, pastor est ovium.
   3 Huic ostiarius aperit, et oves vocem eius audiunt, et proprias oves vocat nominatim et educit eas.
   4 Cum proprias omnes emiserit, ante eas vadit, et oves illum sequuntur, quia sciunt vocem eius;
   5 alienum autem non sequentur, sed fugient ab eo, quia non noverunt vocem alienorum".
   6 Hoc proverbium dixit eis Iesus; illi autem non cognoverunt quid esset, quod loquebatur eis.
   7 Dixit ergo iterum Iesus: "Amen, amen dico vobis: Ego sum ostium ovium.
   8 Omnes, quotquot venerunt ante me, fures sunt et latrones, sed non audierunt eos oves.
   9 Ego sum ostium; per me, si quis introierit, salvabitur et ingredietur et egredietur et pascua inveniet.
   10 Fur non venit, nisi ut furetur et mactet et perdat; ego veni, ut vitam habeant et abundantius habeant.
   11 Ego sum pastor bonus; bonus pastor animam suam ponit pro ovibus;
   12 mercennarius et, qui non est pastor, cuius non sunt oves propriae, videt lupum venientem et dimittit oves et fugit - et lupus rapit eas et dispergit -
   13 quia mercennarius est et non pertinet ad eum de ovibus.
   14 Ego sum pastor bonus et cognosco meas, et cognoscunt me meae,
   15 sicut cognoscit me Pater, et ego cognosco Patrem; et animam meam pono pro ovibus.
   16 Et alias oves habeo, quae non sunt ex hoc ovili, et illas oportet me adducere, et vocem meam audient et fient unus grex, unus pastor.
   17 Propterea me Pater diligit, quia ego pono animam meam, ut iterum sumam eam.
   18 Nemo tollit eam a me, sed ego pono eam a meipso. Potestatem habeo ponendi eam et potestatem habeo iterum sumendi eam. Hoc mandatum accepi a Patre meo".
   19 Dissensio iterum facta est inter Iudaeos propter sermones hos.
   20 Dicebant autem multi ex ipsis: "Daemonium habet et insanit! Quid eum auditis?".
   21 Alii dicebant: "Haec verba non sunt daemonium habentis! Numquid daemonium potest caecorum oculos aperire?".
   22 Facta sunt tunc Encaenia in Hierosolymis. Hiems erat;
   23 et ambulabat Iesus in templo in porticu Salomonis.
   24 Circumdederunt ergo eum Iudaei et dicebant ei: "Quousque animam nostram tollis? Si tu es Christus, dic nobis palam!".
   25 Respondit eis Iesus: "Dixi vobis, et non creditis; opera, quae ego facio in nomine Patris mei, haec testimonium perhibent de me.
   26 Sed vos non creditis, quia non estis ex ovibus meis.
   27 Oves meae vocem meam audiunt, et ego cognosco eas, et sequuntur me;
   28 et ego vitam aeternam do eis, et non peribunt in aeternum, et non rapiet eas quisquam de manu mea.
   29 Pater meus quod dedit mihi, maius omnibus est, et nemo potest rapere de manu Patris.
   30 Ego et Pater unum sumus".
   31 Sustulerunt iterum lapides Iudaei, ut lapidarent eum.
   32 Respondit eis Iesus: "Multa opera bona ostendi vobis ex Patre; propter quod eorum opus me lapidatis?".
   33 Responderunt ei Iudaei: "De bono opere non lapidamus te sed de blasphemia, et quia tu, homo cum sis, facis teipsum Deum".
   34 Respondit eis Iesus: "Nonne scriptum est in lege vestra: "Ego dixi: Dii estis?".
   35 Si illos dixit deos, ad quos sermo Dei factus est, et non potest solvi Scriptura,
   36 quem Pater sanctificavit et misit in mundum, vos dicitis: "Blasphemas!", quia dixi: Filius Dei sum?
   37 Si non facio opera Patris mei, nolite credere mihi;
   38 si autem facio, et si mihi non vultis credere, operibus credite, ut cognoscatis et sciatis quia in me est Pater, et ego in Patre".
   39 Quaerebant ergo iterum eum prehendere; et exivit de manibus eorum.
   40 Et abiit iterum trans Iordanem in eum locum, ubi erat Ioannes baptizans primum, et mansit illic.
   41 Et multi venerunt ad eum et dicebant: "Ioannes quidem signum fecit nullum; omnia autem, quaecumque dixit Ioannes de hoc, vera erant".
   42 Et multi crediderunt in eum illic.

King James Version

   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.
   2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
   3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
   4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
   5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
   6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
   7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
   8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
   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.
   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.
   11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
   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.
   13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
   14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
   15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I 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 fold, and one shepherd.
   17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
   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.
   19 ¶ There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.
   20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?
   21 Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
   22 ¶ And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.
   23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.
   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.
   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.
   26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
   27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
   28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
   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.
   30 I and my Father are one.
   31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
   32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
   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.
   34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
   35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
   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?
   37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
   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.
   39 Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,
   40 And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode.
   41 And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man were true.
   42 And many believed on him there.
