1 I assure you that whoever doesn’t enter into the sheep pen through the gate but climbs over the wall is a thief and an outlaw.
2 The one who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep.
3 The guard at the gate opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
4 Whenever he has gathered all of his sheep, he goes before them and they follow him, because they know his voice.
