John 10:18-21

English Standard Version

^18 (A)No one takes it from me, but ^(B)I lay it down ^(C)of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and ^(D)I have authority to take it up again. ^(E)This charge I have received from my Father.”

^19 (F)There was again a division among the Jews because of these words. ²⁰ Many of them said, ^(G)“He has a demon, and ^(H)is insane; why listen to him?” ²¹ Others said, “These are not the words of one who is oppressed by a demon. ^(I)Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?”
