John 10:5-8 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

5. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognise a stranger’s voice.’

6. Jesus used this figure of speech, but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them.

7. Therefore Jesus said again, ‘Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep.

8. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them.
