John 10

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 Truly I say to you, He who does not go through the door into the place where the sheep are kept, but gets in by some other way, is a thief and an outlaw.

2 He who goes in by the door is the keeper of the sheep.

3 The porter lets him in; and the sheep give ear to his voice; he says over the names of the sheep, and takes them out.

4 When he has got them all out, he goes before them, and the sheep go after him, for they have knowledge of his voice.

5 They will not go after another who is not their keeper, but will go from him in flight, because his voice is strange to them.

6 In this Jesus was teaching them in the form of a story: but what he said was not clear to them.

7 So Jesus said again, Truly I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

8 All who came before me are thieves and outlaws: but the sheep did not give ear to them.

9 I am the door: if any man goes in through me he will have salvation, and will go in and go out, and will get food.

10 The thief comes only to take the sheep and to put them to death: he comes for their destruction: I have come so that they may have life and have it in greater measure.

11 I am the good keeper of sheep: the good keeper gives his life for the sheep.

12 He who is a servant, and not the keeper or the owner of the sheep, sees the wolf coming and goes in flight, away from the sheep; and the wolf comes down on them and sends them in all directions:

13 Because he is a servant he has no interest in the sheep.

14 I am the good keeper; I have knowledge of my sheep, and they have knowledge of me,

15 Even as the Father has knowledge of me and I of the Father; and I am giving my life for the sheep.

16 And I have other sheep which are not of this field: I will be their guide in the same way, and they will give ear to my voice, so there will be one flock and one keeper.

17 For this reason am I loved by the Father, because I give up my life so that I may take it again.

18 No one takes it away from me; I give it up of myself. I have power to give it up, and I have power to take it again. These orders I have from my Father.

19 There was a division again among the Jews because of these words.

20 And a number of them said, He has an evil spirit and is out of his mind; why do you give ear to him?

21 Others said, These are not the words of one who has an evil spirit. Is it possible for an evil spirit to make blind people see?

22 Then came the feast of the opening of the Temple in Jerusalem: it was winter;

23 And Jesus was walking in the Temple, in Solomon's covered way.

24 Then the Jews came round him, saying, how long are you going to keep us in doubt? If you are the Christ, say so clearly.

25 Jesus said in answer, I have said it and you have no belief: the works which I do in my Father's name, these give witness about me.

26 But you have no belief because you are not of my sheep.

27 My sheep give ear to my voice, and I have knowledge of them, and they come after me:

28 And I give them eternal life; they will never come to destruction, and no one will ever take them out of my hand.

29 That which my Father has given to me has more value than all; and no one is able to take anything out of the Father's hand.

30 I and my Father are one.

31 Then the Jews took up stones again to send at him.

32 Jesus said to them in answer, I have let you see a number of good works from the Father; for which of those works are you stoning me?

33 This was their answer: We are not stoning you for a good work but for evil words; because being a man you make yourself God.

34 In answer, Jesus said, Is there not a saying in your law, I said, You are gods?

35 If he said they were gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Writings may not be broken),

36 Do you say of him whom the Father made holy and sent into the world, Your words are evil; because I said, I am God's Son?

37 If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not have belief in me;

38 But if I am doing them, then have belief in the works even if you have no belief in me; so that you may see clearly and be certain that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.

39 Then again they made an attempt to take him; but he got away from them.

40 And he went again to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John first gave baptism; and he was there for a time.

41 And a great number of people came to him, saying, John did no sign: but everything John said of this man was true.

42 And a number came to have faith in him there.

Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB

1 0 Omein, omein, I say to you, the one not entering through the derech hasha’ar (way of the entrance) into the mikhla haTzon (fold [enclosure] of the sheep) but going up another derech, that one is a ganav and a shoded (robber) [Rev 13:4].

2 But the one entering through the derech hasha’ar is Ro’eh haTzon (Shepherd of the flock [of sheep]).

3 To this one the doorkeeper opens, and the tzon hears the Ro’eh’s voice and the Ro’eh calls b’shem (by name) each of his own tzon and leads them out. [TEHILLIM 95:7]

4 When the Ro’eh has brought out all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the tzon follow the Ro’eh, because they have da’as of the Ro’eh’s voice.

5 But a zar (stranger, foreigner) they will never follow, but will flee from him, because they do not have da’as of the voice of zarim (strangers, foreigners).

6 This figure of speech Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach told them. But those ones did not have binah (understanding) of what he was saying to them.

7 Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, therefore, again, Omein, omein, I say to you, Ani Hu the derech hasha’ar (way of the entrance) of the tzon.

8 All who came before me are ganavim (thieves) and shodedim (robbers), but the tzon did not listen to them. [YIRMEYAH 23:1,2; YECHEZKEL 34:2-3]

9 I am the derech hasha’ar. Through me, if anyone enters, he will come to yeshu’at Eloheinu and will go in and will go out and will find mir’eh (pasture) [BAMIDBAR 27:17; TEHILLIM 118:20; 23:2]

10 The ganav does not come except in order that he may steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have Chayyim (Life) and that they may have it more abundantly. [TEHILLIM 65:11]

11 I am the Ro’eh HaTov (the Good Shepherd). The Ro’eh HaTov lays down his neshamah for the tzon. [TEHILLIM 23:1; YESHAYAH 40:11; YECHEZKEL 34:11-16,23; YESHAYAH 53:7,8,10]

12 The hireling, the one who is not the Ro’eh?the hireling, the one to whom the tzon does not belong?this hireling sees the ze’ev (wolf) coming and abandons the tzon and runs for his life and the ze’ev seizes them and scatters them. [ZECHARYAH 11:16]

13 This happens because he is a hireling and the tzon means nothing to him.

14 Ani Hu the Ro’eh HaTov, and I have da’as of my tzon and my tzon has da’as of me. [SHEMOT 33:12]

15 Just as HaAv has da’as of me and I have da’as of HaAv, so I lay down my neshamah for the tzon.

16 And another tzon I have which is not of this mikhla (fold [enclosure]); those also it is necessary for me to bring, and my voice they will hear, and they will become eder echad with Ro’eh echad (One flock with one Shepherd). [YESHAYAH 56:8; YECHEZKEL 34:23; 37:24]

17 Therefore, HaAv has ahavah for me, because I lay down my neshamah that I may take it up again.

18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have samchut (authority) to lay it down, and I have samchut to receive it again. This mitzvah I received from HaAv of me. [YESHAYAH 52:13-53:12]

19 There was a machloket (division of dissension) again among those of Yehudah, because of these dvarim of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.

20 And many of them were saying, He has a shed (demon), and He is meshugga?why do you listen to him? [MELACHIM BAIS 9:11; YIRMEYAH 29:26]

21 Others said, These dvarim are not of one being possessed of shedim. Surely a shed (demon) is not able to open the eyes of an ivver (blind man)? [SHEMOT 4:11]

22 Then the Chag (Festival) of Channukah took place in Yerushalayim. It was winter.

23 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was walking around in the Beis Hamikdash in the area called Ulam Shlomo (Solomon’s Colonnade).

24 Then those of Yehudah encircled Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and were saying to him, How much longer are you going to hold our neshamot in suspense? If you are the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, tell us openly.

25 In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, I did tell you and you do not have emunah. The pe’ulot which I do b’Shem Avi, these pe’ulot give solemn edut (testimony, see Yn 8:18) about me.

26 But you do not have emunah (faith), because you do not belong to my Tzon.

27 My Tzon hear my voice, and I have da’as of them, and they follow me.

28 And I give to them Chayyei Olam, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. [YESHAYAH 66:22]

29 That which HaAv of me has given me is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch out of the hand of HaAv.

30 I and HaAv are echad. [DEVARIM 6:4; TEHILLIM 33:6; BERESHIS 2:24]

31 Again those of Yehudah took up stones that they might stone him.

32 In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Many ma’asim tovim I showed you from HaAv. Because of which ma’aseh do you stone me?

33 In reply, those of Yehudah said to him, For a ma’aseh tov we do not stone you, but for Chillul Hashem and because you, being a man, make yourself G-d. [VAYIKRA 24:16]

34 In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach answered them, Has it not been written in your Torah, ANI AMARTI ELOHIM ATEM (I said you are g-ds.) [TEHILLIM 82:6] [SHEMOT 7:1; 22:27 TARGUM HASHIVIM]

35 If those ones he called g-ds, to whom the Dvar Hashem came and lo tufar Kitvei Hakodesh (and the Kitvei Hakodesh cannot be broken, TEHILLIM 119:89,142)

36 Can you say of the One whom HaAv set apart as HaKadosh and sent into the Olam Hazeh that he commits Chillul Hashem because I said, Ben HaElohim Ani Hu? [YIRMEYAH 1:5]

37 If I do not accomplish the pe’ulot of Avi, do not regard me with bitachon.

38 But if I do, even if you do not have emunah in me, chotsh have emunah in the pe’ulot, so that you may continue to have da’as and binah that HaAv is in me and I am in HaAv.

39 They were seeking, therefore, again to seize him, and he eluded their hand.

40 And he went away again beyond the Yarden to the place where Yochanan was in the beginning giving the mikveh mayim’s tevilah of teshuvah, and he remained there.

41 And many came to him and were saying, Yochanan indeed did no ot (miraculous sign), but everything Yochanan said about this man was HaEmes.

42 And many put their emunah (faith) in him [as Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach] there.
