4 “And when he has brought out his own sheep, he goes before them. And the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
5 “And they shall by no means follow a stranger, but shall flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.”
6 יהושע used this figure of speech, but they did not know what He had been saying to them.
7 יהושע therefore said to them again, “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 hear them.
9 “I am the door. Whoever enters through Me, he shall be saved, and shall go in and shall go out and find pasture.
10 “The thief does not come except to steal, and to slaughter, and to destroy. I have come that they might possess life, and that they might possess it beyond measure.
