John 10:22-42

Common English Bible w/ Apocrypha CEBA

22 The time came for the Festival of Dedication in Jerusalem. It was winter,

23 and Jesus was in the temple, walking in the covered porch named for Solomon.

24 The Jewish opposition circled around him and asked, "How long will you test our patience? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."

25 Jesus answered, "I have told you, but you don't believe. The works I do in my Father's name testify about me,

26 but you don't believe because you don't belong to my sheep.

27 My sheep listen to my voice. I know them and they follow me.

28 I give them eternal life. They will never die, and no one will snatch them from my hand.

29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them from my Father's hand.

30 I and the Father are one."

31 Again the Jewish opposition picked up stones in order to stone him.

32 Jesus responded, "I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of those works do you stone me?"

33 The Jewish opposition answered, "We don't stone you for a good work but for insulting God. You are human, yet you make yourself out to be God."

34 Jesus replied, "Isn't it written in your Law, I have said, you are gods?"

35 Scripture calls those to whom God's word came gods, and scripture can't be abolished.

36 So how can you say that the one whom the Father has made holy and sent into the world insults God because he said, ‘I am God's Son'?

37 If I don't do the works of my Father, don't believe me.

38 But if I do them, and you don't believe me, believe the works so that you can know and recognize that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.”

39 Again, they wanted to arrest him, but he escaped from them.

40 Jesus went back across the Jordan to the place where John had baptized at first, and he stayed there.

41 Many people came to him. "John didn't do any miraculous signs," they said, "but everything John said about this man was true."

42 Many believed in Jesus there.

New International Version NIV

22 Then came the Festival of Dedication at Jerusalem. It was winter,

23 and Jesus was in the temple courts walking in Solomon’s Colonnade.

24 The Jews who were there gathered around him, saying, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly.”

25 Jesus answered, “I did tell you, but you do not believe. The works I do in my Father’s name testify about me,

26 but you do not believe because you are not my sheep.

27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.

28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.

29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand.

30 I and the Father are one.”

31 Again his Jewish opponents picked up stones to stone him,

32 but Jesus said to them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?”

33 “We are not stoning you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.”

34 Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I have said you are “gods” ’?

35 If he called them ‘gods,’ to whom the word of God came—and Scripture cannot be set aside—

36 what about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world? Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, ‘I am God’s Son’?

37 Do not believe me unless I do the works of my Father.

38 But if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.”

39 Again they tried to seize him, but he escaped their grasp.

40 Then Jesus went back across the Jordan to the place where John had been baptizing in the early days. There he stayed,

41 and many people came to him. They said, “Though John never performed a sign, all that John said about this man was true.”

42 And in that place many believed in Jesus.
