- 1. After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
- 2. Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
- 3. In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
- 4. For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
- 5. And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
- 6. When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
- 7. The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.
- 8. Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
- 9. And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
- 10. The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
- 11. He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
- 12. Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?
- 13. And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.
- 14. Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
- 15. The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.
- 16. And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.
- 17. But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
- 18. Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
- 19. Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
- 20. For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.
- 21. For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
- 22. For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
- 23. That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
- 24. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
- 25. Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
- 26. For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
- 27. And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
- 28. Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
- 29. And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
- 30. I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
- 31. If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
- 32. There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
- 33. Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
- 34. But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved.
- 35. He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
- 36. But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
- 37. And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
- 38. And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
- 39. Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
- 40. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
- 41. I receive not honour from men.
- 42. But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
- 43. I am come in my Father
- 44. How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?
- 45. Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
- 46. For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
- 47. But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
