New Testament
10:1 | "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber." |
10:2 | But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep." |
10:3 | To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out." |
10:4 | And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice." |
10:5 | Yet they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers." |
10:6 | Jesus spoke this parable to them, but they did not understand those things which He spoke to them. |
10:7 | Then Jesus said to them again, "Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep." |
10:8 | All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them." |
10:9 | I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture." |
10:10 | The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." |
10:11 | "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep." |
10:12 | But he who is a hireling, and is not the shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches them and scatters the sheep." |
10:13 | The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care for the sheep." |
10:14 | I am the good shepherd; and know My sheep, and am known by My own." |
10:15 | As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep." |
10:16 | And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they will hear My voice; and there will be one flockĀ andĀ one shepherd." |
10:17 | "Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again." |
10:18 | No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it again. This command I have received from My Father." |
10:19 | Therefore there was a division again among the Jews because of these sayings. |
10:20 | And many of them said, "He has a demon and is mad. Why do you listen to Him?" |
10:21 | Others said, "These are not the words of one who has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?" |
10:22 | Now it was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem, and it was winter. |
10:23 | And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon's porch. |
10:24 | Then the Jews surrounded Him and said to Him, "How long do You keep us in doubt? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly." |
10:25 | Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me." |
10:26 | But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you." |
10:27 | My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me." |
10:28 | And I give them eternal life, and they will never perish; neither will anyone snatch them out of My hand." |
10:29 | My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand." |
10:30 | I and My Father are one." |
10:31 | Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him. |
10:32 | Jesus responded to them, "Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?" |
10:33 | The Jews answered Him, saying, "For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God." |
10:34 | Jesus replied to them, "Is it not written in your law, 'I said, "You are gods"'? |
10:35 | If He called them gods, to whom the word of God came, and the Scripture cannot be broken," |
10:36 | do you say of Him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'?" |
10:37 | If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me;" |
10:38 | but if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him." |
10:39 | Therefore they sought again to seize Him, but He escaped out of their hand. |
10:40 | And He went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptizing at first, and there He stayed. |
10:41 | Then many came to Him and said, "John performed no miracle, but all the things that John spoke about this Man are true." |
10:42 | And many believed on Him there. |
King James Bible 2016
Unlike most other modern versions, this Bible's text is based upon the same Hebrew Masoretic Text, and Greek Textus Receptus, of the King James Version of 1611.
In non Textus Receptus versions, the issue of having the best underlying manuscripts, is often overshadowed by the massive amount of omissions in the text. Because the KJV 2016 is not dealing with issues of omission and addition, the focus has been upon definition, and the KJV translators choices have been used as the benchmark.
One issue not often majored upon in the bible version debate is simply the way Greek words are defined. Many times, the NKJV leans upon the definition choices of modern versions as well as defaulting to Vines and Strong's definitions, which are almost always favorable to the Revised Version. In other words, one may have a correct text to translate from, but use erroneous modern version/modern dictionary definitions which change or distort the meaning of the words. Jay Green was accused of having a good TR bible but with "Alexandrian readings".
The KJV 2016 Edition rejects such erroneous modern definitions and restores the distinctness of historical KJV readings. The NKJV also tended to gravitate toward KJV marginal notes, which are in truth, rejected readings, and also toward Geneva Bible definitions, which the KJV had already cleared up.
