1 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way, he is (A)a thief and a robber.
1 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.

3 To him, the porter openeth, and, the sheep, unto his voice, hearken: and, his own sheep, he calleth by name, and leadeth them forth.

3 It's to him the gatekeeper opens the gate, and it's his voice the sheep hear. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
4 As soon as, all his own, he hath put forth, before them, he moveth on, and, the sheep, follow him, because they know his voice;
4 When he puts forth all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know (E)his voice.
4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
4 When he has brought all his own outside, he goes ahead of them. The sheep follow him because they recognize his voice.
4 When he has driven out all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they recognize his voice.
5 But, a stranger, will they in nowise follow, but will flee from him, because they know not the voice, of strangers.
5 A stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know (F)the voice of strangers.”
5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
5 They will never follow a stranger; instead they will run away from him, because they don’t recognize the voice of strangers.”
5 They'll never follow a stranger, but will run away from him because they don't recognize the voice of strangers."

32 Jesus replied to them, "I've shown you many good actions from my Father. For which of them are you going to stone me?"
33 The Jews answered him - Concerning a noble work, are we not stoning thee; but concerning profane speech, - and because, thou, being, a man, art making thyself, God.
33 The Jews answered Him, “For a good work we do not stone You, but for (AQ)blasphemy; and because You, being a man, (AR)make Yourself out to be God.”
33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
33 “We aren’t stoning(AH) You for a good work,” the Jews answered, “but for blasphemy, because You—being a man—make Yourself God.”
33 The Jewish leaders answered him, "We are not going to stone you for a good action, but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, are making yourself God!"
35 If, those, he called gods, unto whom, the word of God, came - and the Scripture cannot be broken -
35 If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),
35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
35 If He called those whom the word(AJ) of God came to ‘gods’—and the Scripture(AK) cannot be broken—

36 do you say of Him, whom the Father (AV)sanctified and (AW)sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘(AX)I am the Son of God’?
36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
36 do you say, ‘You are blaspheming’ to the One the Father set apart and sent into the world, because I said: I am the Son of God?(AL)
36 how can you say to the one whom the Father has consecrated and sent into the world, "You're blaspheming,' because I said, "I'm the Son of God'?
38 But, if I am doing them, even though, in me, ye believe not, in the works, believe, - that ye may get to know and go on to know, that the Father is, in me, and, I, am, in the Father.
38 but if I do them, though you do not believe Me, believe (AZ)the works, so that you may (f)know and understand that (BA)the Father is in Me, and I in the Father.”
38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.

38 But if I'm doing them, even though you don't believe me, believe the actions, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father."
