10:1 Truly, Truly, I say unto you:

He that entereth not by ha sha'ar(door, dalat) into the mikhla ha tzon (sheepfold), but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

10:2 But he that entereth in by ha sha'ar (door) is the shepherd of the sheep.

10:3 To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear His voice; and He calls (kara) His own sheep by name and leads them out.

10:4  When He puts forth all His own, He goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow Him because they know His voice.

10:5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from Him: for they know not the voice of strangers.

10:6 This parable spake Yeshua (ישוע) unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.

10:7 Then said Yeshua (ישוע) unto them again,

Truly, Truly, I say unto you,

לכם אני הוא פתח הצאן׃

ANI HU ha sha'ar of the tzon (sheep).

10:8 All that ever came before Me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.

10:9 ANI HU ha sha'ar: by Me if any man enter in, he shall come to yeshu'at Eloheinu, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

10:10 The thief comes 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.

10:11 ANI HU (I am) Ro'eh haTov (good shepherd): the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

10:12 But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them.

10:13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

10:14 ANI HU Ro'eh ha Tov, and know My [sheep], and am known of mine.

10:15 As Ha AVI knoweth Me, even so know I Ha AVI: and I lay down My life for the sheep.

10:16 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.

10:17 Therefore doth My AVI love Me, because I lay down My life, that I might take it again.

10:18 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 AVI.

10:19 Therefore there was a division again among the Yehudim because of these words

10:20 And many of them said:

"He has a demon and is raving mad.

Why do you listen to Him?"

10:21 Others said:

"These are not the words of one being demon-possessed.

Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?"

10:22 And it was at Yerushalayim Hannukah (feast of dedication), and it was winter.

10:23 And Yeshua (ישוע) walked in the Beit Ha Mikdash in  ulam (porch) Shlomo.

10:24 Then came the Yehudim round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be Ha Moshiach, tell us plainly.

10:25 Yeshua (ישוע) answered them:

I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in My AVI's Name, they bear witness of Me.

10:26 But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, just as I said to you.

10:27 My sheep hear My Voice, and I know them, and they Follow Me:

10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any [man] pluck them out of My hand.

10:29 My AVI, which gave [them] Me, is greater than all; and no [man] is able to pluck [them] out of My AVI's hand.

אנחנו׃ אחד ואבי אני

ANI ve AVI ECHAD ANUKHNU:

10:30 I and the Father are One ."

10:31 The image “http://www.messianic-torah-truth-seeker.org/Torah/Rainbow/S-stoning.gif” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors. Then the Yehudim took up stones again to stone him.

10:32 Yeshua (ישוע) answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from My AVI; for which of those works do ye stone me?

10:33The image “http://www.messianic-torah-truth-seeker.org/Torah/Rainbow/S-stoning.gif” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors. The Yehudim answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself Elohim (אלהים).

10:34 Yeshua (ישוע) answered them:

Is it not written in your Torah, I said, Ye are gods?

10:35 If he called them gods, unto whom Dvar Elohim (אלהים) came, and the scripture cannot be broken;

10:36 Say ye of him, whom Ha AVI hath set aparted, and sent into Olam Hazeh, Thou blasphemest; because I said, ANI BEN Elohim (אלהים)?

10:37 If I do not the works of My AVI, believe Me not.

10:38 But if I do, though ye believe not Me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that Ha AVI [is] in Me, and I in him.

10:39 Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,

10:40 And went away again beyond Yarden into the place where Yochanan at first immersed; and there he abode.

10:41 And many resorted unto him, and said, Yochanan did no miracle: but all things that Yochanan spake of this man were true.

10:42 And many believed on him there.
