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.

¹`Verily, verily, I say to you, He who is not entering through the door to the fold of the sheep, but is going up from another side, that one is a thief and a robber;

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

²and he who is entering through the door is shepherd of the sheep;

³Ka 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.

³to this one the doorkeeper doth open, and the sheep hear his voice, and his own sheep he doth call by name, and doth lead them forth;

⁴A 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.

⁴and when his own sheep he may put forth, before them he goeth on, and the sheep follow him, because they have known his voice;

⁵E 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.

⁵and a stranger they will not follow, but will flee from him, because they have not known the voice of strangers.`

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

⁶This similitude spake Jesus to them, and they knew not what the things were that he was speaking to them;

⁷Na 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.

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

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

⁸all, as many as came before me, are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them;

⁹Ko 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.

⁹I am the door, through me if any one may come in, he shall be saved, and he shall come in, and go out, and find pasture.

¹⁰Heoi 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.

¹⁰`The thief doth not come, except that he may steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they may have life, and may have [it] abundantly.

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

¹¹`I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd his life layeth down for the sheep;

¹²Tena 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.

¹²and the hireling, and not being a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, doth behold the wolf coming, and doth leave the sheep, and doth flee; and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep;

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

¹³and the hireling doth flee because he is an hireling, and is not caring for the sheep.

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

¹⁴`I am the good shepherd, and I know my [sheep], and am known by mine,

¹⁵Pera 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.

¹⁵according as the Father doth know me, and I know the Father, and my life I lay down for the sheep,

¹⁶He 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.

¹⁶and other sheep I have that are not of this fold, these also it behoveth me to bring, and my voice they will hear, and there shall become one flock — one shepherd.

¹⁷Koia 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.

¹⁷`Because of this doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life, that again I may take it;

¹⁸Ehara 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.

¹⁸no one doth take it from me, but I lay it down of myself; authority I have to lay it down, and authority I have again to take it; this command I received from my Father.`

¹⁹¶ Katahi ka wehewehea nga Hurai, na enei kupu.

¹⁹Therefore, again, there came a division among the Jews, because of these words,

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

²⁰and many of them said, `He hath a demon, and is mad, why do ye hear him?`

²¹Ko 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?

²¹others said, `These sayings are not those of a demoniac; is a demon able blind men`s eyes to open?`

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

²²And the dedication in Jerusalem came, and it was winter,

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

²³and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the porch of Solomon,

²⁴Na 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.

²⁴the Jews, therefore, came round about him, and said to him, `Till when our soul dost thou hold in suspense? if thou art the Christ, tell us freely.`

²⁵Ka 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.

²⁵Jesus answered them, `I told you, and ye do not believe; the works that I do in the name of my Father, these testify concerning me;

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

²⁶but ye do not believe, for ye are not of my sheep,

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

²⁷according as I said to you: My sheep my voice do hear, and I know them, and they follow me,

²⁸E 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.

²⁸and life age-during I give to them, and they shall not perish — to the age, and no one shall pluck them out of my hand;

²⁹Ko 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.

²⁹my Father, who hath given to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to pluck out of the hand of my Father;

³⁰Ko ahau, ko te Matua, kotahi maua.

³⁰I and the Father are one.`

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

³¹Therefore, again, did the Jews take up stones that they may stone him;

³²Ka 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?

³²Jesus answered them, `Many good works did I shew you from my Father; because of which work of them do ye stone me?`

³³Ka 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.

³³The Jews answered him, saying, `For a good work we do not stone thee, but for evil speaking, and because thou, being a man, dost make thyself God.`

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

³⁴Jesus answered them, `Is it not having been written in your law: I said, ye are gods?

³⁵Ki 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,

³⁵if them he did call gods unto whom the word of God came, (and the Writing is not able to be broken,)

³⁶E 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?

³⁶of him whom the Father did sanctify, and send to the world, do ye say — Thou speakest evil, because I said, Son of God I am?

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

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

³⁸Tena 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.

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

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

³⁹Therefore were they seeking again to seize him, and he went forth out of their hand,

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

⁴⁰and went away again to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John was at first baptizing, and remained there,

⁴¹He 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.

⁴¹and many came unto him, and said — `John, indeed, did no sign, and all things, as many as John said about this one were true;`

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

⁴²and many did believe in him there.
