And [some] of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?
Jesus said unto them, ‹If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.›
‹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.›
‹But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.›
‹To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.›
‹And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.›
‹And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.›
This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
Then said Jesus unto them again, ‹Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.›
‹All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.›
