Und wenn er seine Schafe hat ausgelassen, geht er vor ihnen hin, und die Schafe folgen ihm nach; denn sie kennen seine Stimme.
Y como ha sacado fuera todas las propias, va delante de ellas; y las ovejas le siguen, porque conocen su voz.
Cuando ha sacado a todas las suyas, va delante de ellas, y las ovejas lo siguen, porque conocen su voz.
Lorsqu'il a fait sortir toutes ses propres brebis, il marche devant elles; et les brebis le suivent, parce qu'elles connaissent sa voix.
E quando ha messe fuori le sue pecore, va davanti a loro, e le pecore lo seguitano, perciocchè conoscono la sua voce.
E, quando tira para fora as suas ovelhas, vai adiante delas, e as ovelhas o seguem, porque conhecem a sua voz.
