John 10:4-8 English Standard Version (ESV)

4. When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.

5. A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.”

6. This figure of speech Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.

7. So Jesus again said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

8. All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.
