¹Verily, verily, I say to you, He that enters not in by the door to the fold of the sheep, but mounts up elsewhere, *he* is a thief and a robber;

¹ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܕܠܐ ܥܐܠ ܡܢ ܬܪܥܐ ܠܛܝܪܐ ܕܥܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܤܠܩ ܡܢ ܕܘܟܐ ܐܚܪܢܝܐ ܗܘ ܓܢܒܐ ܗܘ ܘܓܝܤܐ ܀

²but he that enters in by the door is [the] shepherd of the sheep.

²ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܕܥܐܠ ܡܢ ܬܪܥܐ ܪܥܝܐ ܗܘ ܕܥܢܐ ܀

³To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out.

³ܘܠܗܢܐ ܢܛܪ ܬܪܥܐ ܦܬܚ ܠܗ ܬܪܥܐ ܘܥܢܐ ܫܡܥܐ ܩܠܗ ܘܥܪܒܘܗܝ ܩܪܐ ܒܫܡܗܝܗܘܢ ܘܡܦܩ ܠܗܘܢ ܀

⁴When he has put forth all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.

⁴ܘܡܐ ܕܐܦܩ ܥܢܗ ܩܕܡܝܗ ܐܙܠ ܘܥܪܒܘܗܝ ܕܝܠܗ ܐܙܠܝܢ ܒܬܪܗ ܡܛܠ ܕܝܕܥܝܢ ܩܠܗ ܀

⁵But they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, because they know not the voice of strangers.

⁵ܒܬܪ ܢܘܟܪܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܐܙܠܐ ܥܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܥܪܩܐ ܡܢܗ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥܐ ܩܠܗ ܕܢܘܟܪܝܐ ܀

⁶This allegory spoke Jesus to them, but they did not know what it was [of] which he spoke to them.

⁶ܗܕܐ ܦܠܐܬܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܝܕܥܘ ܡܢܐ ܡܠܠ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܀

⁷Jesus therefore said again to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

⁷ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܬܘܒ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܬܪܥܗ ܕܥܢܐ ܀

⁸All whoever came before me are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them.

⁸ܘܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܬܘ ܓܢܒܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܓܝܤܐ ܐܠܐ ܠܐ ܫܡܥܬ ܐܢܘܢ ܥܢܐ ܀

⁹I am the door: if any one enter in by me, he shall be saved, and shall go in and shall go out and shall find pasture.

⁹ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܬܪܥܐ ܘܒܝ ܐܢ ܐܢܫ ܢܥܘܠ ܢܚܐ ܘܢܥܘܠ ܘܢܦܘܩ ܘܪܥܝܐ ܢܫܟܚ ܀

¹⁰The thief comes not but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I am come that they might have life, and might have [it] abundantly.

¹⁰ܓܢܒܐ ܠܐ ܐܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܕܢܓܢܘܒ ܘܕܢܩܛܘܠ ܘܕܢܘܒܕ ܐܢܐ ܐܬܝܬ ܕܚܝܐ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܡܕܡ ܕܝܬܝܪ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܀

¹¹I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep:

¹¹ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܪܥܝܐ ܛܒܐ ܪܥܝܐ ܛܒܐ ܢܦܫܗ ܤܐܡ ܚܠܦ ܥܢܗ ܀

¹²but he who serves for wages, and who is not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf seizes them and scatters the sheep.

¹²ܐܓܝܪܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܪܥܝܐ ܘܠܘ ܕܝܠܗ ܐܢܘܢ ܥܪܒܐ ܡܐ ܕܚܙܐ ܕܐܒܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܫܒܩ ܥܢܐ ܘܥܪܩ ܘܐܬܐ ܕܐܒܐ ܚܛܦ ܘܡܒܕܪ ܠܗ ܠܥܢܐ ܀

¹³Now he who serves for wages flees because he serves for wages, and is not himself concerned about the sheep.

¹³ܐܓܝܪܐ ܕܝܢ ܥܪܩ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܓܝܪܐ ܗܘ ܘܠܐ ܒܛܝܠ ܠܗ ܥܠ ܥܢܐ ܀

¹⁴I am the good shepherd; and I know those that are mine, and am known of those that are mine,

¹⁴ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܪܥܝܐ ܛܒܐ ܘܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܠܕܝܠܝ ܘܡܬܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܡܢ ܕܝܠܝ ܀

¹⁵as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.

¹⁵ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܝܕܥ ܠܝ ܐܒܝ ܘܐܢܐ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܠܐܒܝ ܘܢܦܫܝ ܤܐܡ ܐܢܐ ܚܠܦ ܥܢܐ ܀

¹⁶And I have other sheep which are not of this fold: those also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one flock, one shepherd.

¹⁶ܐܝܬ ܠܝ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܥܪܒܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܘ ܡܢ ܛܝܪܐ ܗܢܐ ܘܐܦ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܠܝ ܠܡܝܬܝܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܢܫܡܥܘܢ ܩܠܝ ܘܬܗܘܐ ܥܢܐ ܟܠܗ ܚܕܐ ܘܚܕ ܪܥܝܐ ܀

¹⁷On this account the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it again.

¹⁷ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܒܝ ܪܚܡ ܠܝ ܕܐܢܐ ܤܐܡ ܐܢܐ ܢܦܫܝ ܕܬܘܒ ܐܤܒܝܗ ܀

¹⁸No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down and I have authority to take it again. I have received this commandment of my Father.

¹⁸ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܢܫ ܫܩܠ ܠܗ ܡܢܝ ܐܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܤܐܡ ܐܢܐ ܠܗ ܡܢ ܨܒܝܢܝ ܫܠܝܛ ܐܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܤܝܡܝܗ ܘܫܠܝܛ ܐܢܐ ܕܬܘܒ ܐܤܒܝܗ ܕܗܢܐ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܩܒܠܬ ܡܢ ܐܒܝ ܀

¹⁹There was a division again among the Jews on account of these words;

¹⁹ܘܗܘܬ ܬܘܒ ܦܠܓܘܬܐ ܒܝܢܝ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܠܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܀

²⁰but many of them said, He has a demon and raves; why do ye hear him?

²⁰ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܕܕܝܘܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܘܡܫܢܐ ܫܢܐ ܡܢܐ ܫܡܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܗ ܀

²¹Others said, These sayings are not [those] of one that is possessed by a demon. Can a demon open blind people's eyes?

²¹ܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܠܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܝ ܕܕܝܘܢܐ ܠܡܐ ܕܝܘܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܥܝܢܐ ܕܤܡܝܐ ܠܡܦܬܚܘ ܀

²²Now the feast of the dedication was celebrating at Jerusalem, and it was winter.

²²ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܥܐܕܐ ܕܚܘܕܬܐ ܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܘܤܬܘܐ ܗܘܐ ܀

²³And Jesus walked in the temple in the porch of Solomon.

²³ܘܡܗܠܟ ܗܘܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܗܝܟܠܐ ܒܐܤܛܘܐ ܕܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܀

²⁴The Jews therefore surrounded him, and said to him, Until when dost thou hold our soul in suspense? If thou art the Christ, say [so] to us openly.

²⁴ܘܚܕܪܘܗܝ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܐܡܬܝ ܢܤܒ ܐܢܬ ܢܦܫܢ ܐܢ ܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܢ ܓܠܝܐܝܬ ܀

²⁵Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye do not believe. The works which I do in my Father's name, these bear witness concerning me:

²⁵ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܥܒܕܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܐ ܒܫܡܗ ܕܐܒܝ ܗܢܘܢ ܤܗܕܝܢ ܥܠܝ ܀

²⁶but ye do not believe, for ye are not of my sheep, as I told you.

²⁶ܐܠܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܥܪܒܝ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܀

²⁷My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me;

²⁷ܥܪܒܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܩܠܝ ܫܡܥܝܢ ܘܐܢܐ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܐܬܝܢ ܒܬܪܝ ܀

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

²⁸ܘܐܢܐ ܝܗܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܘܠܐ ܢܐܒܕܘܢ ܠܥܠܡ ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܢܚܛܘܦ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܝܕܝ ܀

²⁹My Father who has given [them] to me is greater than all, and no one can seize out of the hand of my Father.

²⁹ܐܒܝ ܓܝܪ ܕܝܗܒ ܠܝ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܪܒ ܗܘ ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܡܢ ܐܝܕܗ ܕܐܒܝ ܢܚܛܘܦ ܀

³⁰I and the Father are one.

³⁰ܐܢܐ ܘܐܒܝ ܚܕ ܚܢܢ ܀

³¹The Jews therefore again took stones that they might stone him.

³¹ܘܫܩܠܘ ܬܘܒ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܟܐܦܐ ܠܡܪܓܡܗ ܀

³²Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewn you of my Father; for which work of them do ye stone me?

³²ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܥܒܕܐ ܫܦܝܪܐ ܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܝ ܚܘܝܬܟܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܐܝܢܐ ܥܒܕܐ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܪܓܡܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܝ ܀

³³The Jews answered him, For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy, and because thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

³³ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܛܠ ܥܒܕܐ ܫܦܝܪܐ ܪܓܡܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܠܟ ܐܠܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܡܓܕܦ ܐܢܬ ܘܟܕ ܐܝܬܝܟ ܒܪ ܐܢܫܐ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܢܦܫܟ ܐܠܗܐ ܀

³⁴Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?

³⁴ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܟܬܝܒ ܒܢܡܘܤܟܘܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܡܪܬ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀

³⁵If he called *them* gods to whom the word of God came (and the scripture cannot be broken),

³⁵ܐܢ ܠܗܢܘܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܠܗܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܗܘܬ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܟܬܒܐ ܕܢܫܬܪܐ ܀

³⁶do ye say of him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest, because I said, I am Son of God?

³⁶ܠܐܝܢܐ ܕܐܒܐ ܩܕܫܗ ܘܫܕܪܗ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܡܓܕܦ ܐܢܬ ܥܠ ܕܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܒܪܗ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀

³⁷If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not;

³⁷ܐܠܐ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܐ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܐܒܝ ܠܐ ܬܗܝܡܢܘܢܢܝ ܀

³⁸but if I do, even if ye believe not me, believe the works, that ye may know [and believe] that the Father is in me and I in him.

³⁸ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܐ ܐܦܢ ܠܝ ܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܥܒܕܐ ܗܝܡܢܘ ܕܬܕܥܘܢ ܘܬܗܝܡܢܘܢ ܕܐܒܝ ܒܝ ܘܐܢܐ ܒܐܒܝ ܀

³⁹They sought therefore again to take him; and he went away from out of their hand

³⁹ܘܒܥܘ ܗܘܘ ܬܘܒ ܕܢܐܚܕܘܢܝܗܝ ܘܢܦܩ ܠܗ ܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܐܝܕܝܗܘܢ ܀

⁴⁰and departed again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptising at the first: and he abode there.

⁴⁰ܘܐܙܠ ܠܗ ܠܥܒܪܐ ܕܝܘܪܕܢܢ ܠܕܘܟܬܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܟܕ ܡܥܡܕ ܗܘܐ ܘܗܘܐ ܬܡܢ ܀

⁴¹And many came to him, and said, John did no sign; but all things which John said of this [man] were true.

⁴¹ܘܐܬܘ ܐܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܠܘܬܗ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܝܘܚܢܢ ܐܦ ܠܐ ܚܕܐ ܐܬܐ ܥܒܕ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܕܝܢ ܕܐܡܪ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܥܠ ܓܒܪܐ ܗܢܐ ܫܪܝܪ ܗܘ ܀

⁴²And many believed on him there.

⁴²ܘܤܓܝܐܐ ܗܝܡܢܘ ܒܗ ܀
