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.

1 He pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te kahore tetahi e tomo ra te kuwaha ki te kainga hipi, ki te piki ke, he tahae ia, he tangata pahua.

2 Tena ko te tangata e tomo ana ra te kuwaha, ko te hepara ia o nga hipi.

3 Ka uaki te kaitiaki tatau ki a ia; ka rongo ano nga hipi ki tona reo: na ka karangatia e ia ana hipi ake, to tenei ingoa, to tenei ingoa, ka arahina ki waho.

4 A ka oti ana ake hipi te tuku ki waho, ka haere ia i mua i a ratou, ka aru nga hipi i a ia: e matau ana hoki ratou ki tona reo.

5 E kore ia ratou e aru i te tauhou, engari ka oma i a ia: e kore hoki e matau ki te reo o nga tauhou.

6 I korerotia tenei kupu whakarite e Ihu ki a ratou: heoi kihai ratou i mohio ki nga mea i korerotia e ia ki a ratou.

7 Na ka mea ano a Ihu ki a ratou, He pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ko ahau te tatau o nga hipi.

8 He tahae, he kaipahua te hunga katoa i haere mai i mua i ahau: heoi kihai nga hipi i whakarongo ki a ratou.

9 Ko ahau te tatau: ki te waiho ahau hei huarahi tomokanga mo tetahi, e ora ia, a ka haere ki roto, ka haere ki waho, ka kite hoki i te kai.

10 Heoi ano ta te tahae e haere mai ai, he tahae, he patu, he whakamoti hoki: i haere mai ahau kia whiwhi ai ratou ki te ora, ina, tona nui noa atu.

11 Ko ahau te hepara pai, he hepara pai, ka tuku i a ia ano kia mate mo nga hipi.

12 Tena ko te tangata e utua ana, ehara nei i te hepara, ehara nei i a ia nga hipi, i tona kitenga i te wuruhi e haere mai ana, whakarerea ake e ia nga hipi, oma ana: na ka hopukia ratou e te wuruhi, a whakamararatia ana nga hipi.

13 Ka oma te tangata e utua ana, no te mea e utua ana ia, kahore hoki ona whakaaro ki nga hipi.

14 Ko ahau te hepara pai, e matau ana hoki ki aku, a e matau ana aku ki ahau.

15 Pera tonu me to te Matua matau ki ahau, me toku matau hoki ki te Matua: e tuku ana hoki ahau i ahau ki te mate mo nga hipi.

16 He hipi atu ano aku, ehara nei i tenei kainga: me arahi mai ratou e ahau, a ka rongo ratou ki toku reo; a e whakakotahitia te kahui, kotahi ano hoki hepara.

17 Koia te Matua ka aroha mai ai ki ahau, no te mea e tuku ana ahau i ahau kia mate, kia whakaora ake ai ano ahau i ahau.

18 Ehara i te mea ma tetahi tangata ahau e whakamate, engari maku ano ahau e tuku ki te mate. Kei ahau te tikanga mo te tuku atu, kei ahau ano te tikanga mo te whakaora. Na toku matua tenei ture kua riro mai nei i ahau.

19 Katahi ka wehewehea nga Hurai, na enei kupu.

20 He tokomaha o ratou i mea, He rewera tona, e haurangi ana; he aha koutou ka whakarongo ai ki a ia?

21 Ko etahi i mea, Ehara enei i nga kupu a te tangata e nohoia ana e te rewera. E ahei koia i te rewera te mea i nga kanohi o nga matapo kia kite?

22 Na i Hiruharama tenei, i te hakari horohoronga: he hotoke;

23 A e haereere ana a Ihu i te temepara, i te whakamahau o Horomona.

24 Na ka karapotia ia e nga Hurai, ka mea ratou ki a ia, Kia pehea te roa o tau waiho i o matou ngakau kia hikirangi ana? Ki te mea ko te Karaiti koe, korerotia matanuitia mai ki a matou.

25 Ka whakahoki a Ihu ki a ratou, Kua korerotia e ahau ki a koutou, a kahore koutou e whakapono: ko nga mahi e mahi nei ahau i runga i te ingoa o toku Matua, ko enei hei kaiwhakaatu moku.

26 Otira e kore koutou e whakapono, no te mea ehara koutou i te hipi naku.

27 E rongo ana aku hipi ki toku reo, e matau ana ahau ki a ratou, e aru ana hoki ratou i ahau:

28 E hoatu ana e ahau ki a ratou he ora tonu; e kore ratou e ngaro ake ake, e kore ano hoki tetahi e kapo atu i a ratou i roto i toku ringa.

29 Ko toku Matua, nana nei ratou i homai ki ahau, nui ake i te katoa; e kore ano ratou e taea e tetahi te kapo atu i roto i te ringa o toku Matua.

30 Ko ahau, ko te Matua, kotahi maua.

31 Katahi ka mau ano nga Hurai ki te kohatu hei aki ki a ia.

32 Ka whakahokia e Ihu ki a ratou, He maha nga mahi pai kua whakakitea nei e ahau ki a koutou, he mea na toku Matua; mo tehea o aua mahi ka akina ai ahau e koutou?

33 Ka whakahoki nga Hurai ki a ia, ka mea, Ehara te mahi pai i te mea e akina ai koe; engari mo te kohukohu; mo te mea hoki ko koe, tangata nei ano, e whakaatua ana i a koe.

34 Ka whakahokia e Ihu ki a ratou, Kahore ranei i tuhituhia i roto i to koutou ture, I mea ahau, he atua koutou?

35 Ki te huaina e ia he atua te hunga i tae mai nei te kupu a te Atua ki a ratou, a e kore hoki e taea te whakakahore te karaipiture,

36 E mea ana oti koutou ki ta te Matua i whakatapu ai, i tono mai ai hoki ki te ao, E kohukohu ana koe; noku i mea, Ko te Tama ahau a te Atua?

37 Ki te kore ahau e mahi i nga mahi a toku Matua, aua ahau e whakaponohia.

38 Tena ki te mahi ahau, ahakoa kahore koutou e whakapono ki ahau, whakaponohia nga mahi: kia matau ai koutou, kia whakapono ai, ko te Matua kei roto i ahau, me ahau hoki kei roto i a ia.

39 Na ka whai ano ratou kia hopukia ia: heoi puta ana ia i o ratou ringa;

40 Na ka haere ano ia ki tawahi o Horano, ki te wahi i matua iriiri ai a Hoani; a noho ana i reira.

41 He tokomaha hoki i haere ki a ia; i mea ratou, Kihai a Hoani i mahi i tetahi merekara; he pono ia nga mea katoa i korerotia e Hoani mo tenei.

42 A he tokomaha o reira i whakapono ki a ia.
