1Truly 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.
2He who goes in by the door is the keeper of the sheep.
3The porter lets him in; and the sheep give ear to his voice; he says over the names of the sheep, and takes them out.
4When he has got them all out, he goes before them, and the sheep go after him, for they have knowledge of his voice.
5They will not go after another who is not their keeper, but will go from him in flight, because his voice is strange to them.
6In this Jesus was teaching them in the form of a story: but what he said was not clear to them.
7So Jesus said again, Truly I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
