After <G3326> this <G5023> there was <G2258> <G5713> a feast <G1859> of the Jews <G2453>; and <G2532> Jesus <G2424> went up <G0305> <G5627> to <G1519> Jerusalem <G2414>.
2
Now <G1161> there is <G2076> <G5748> at <G1722> Jerusalem <G2414> by <G1909> the sheep <G4262> [market] a pool <G2861>, which <G3588> is called <G1951> <G5746> in the Hebrew tongue <G1447> Bethesda <G0964>, having <G2192> <G5723> five <G4002> porches <G4745>.
3
In <G1722> these <G5025> lay <G2621> <G5711> a great <G4183> multitude <G4128> of impotent folk <G0770> <G5723>, of blind <G5185>, halt <G5560>, withered <G3584>, waiting for <G1551> <G5740> the moving <G2796> of the water <G5204>.
4
For <G1063> an angel <G0032> went down <G2597> <G5707> at <G2596> a certain season <G2540> into <G1722> the pool <G2861>, and <G2532> troubled <G5015> <G5707> the water <G5204>: whosoever then <G3767> first <G4413> after <G3326> the troubling <G5016> of the water <G5204> stepped in <G1684> <G5631> was made <G1096> <G5711> whole <G5199> of <G3739> whatsoever <G1221> disease <G3553> he had <G2722> <G5712>.
5
And <G1161> a certain <G5100> man <G0444> was <G2258> <G5713> there <G1563>, which had <G2192> <G5723> an infirmity <G1722> <G0769> thirty <G5144> and eight <G3638> years <G2094>.
6
When Jesus <G2424> saw <G1492> <G5631> him <G5126> lie <G2621> <G5740>, and <G2532> knew <G1097> <G5631> that <G3754> he had been <G2192> <G5719> now <G2235> a long <G4183> time <G5550> [in that case], he saith <G3004> <G5719> unto him <G0846>, Wilt thou <G2309> <G5719> be made <G1096> <G5635> whole <G5199>?
7
The impotent man <G0770> <G5723> answered <G0611> <G5662> him <G0846>, Sir <G2962>, I have <G2192> <G5719> no <G3756> man <G0444>, when <G3752> the water <G5204> is troubled <G5015> <G5686>, to <G2443> put <G0906> <G5725> me <G3165> into <G1519> the pool <G2861>: but <G1161> while <G1722> <G3739> I <G1473> am coming <G2064> <G5736>, another <G0243> steppeth down <G2597> <G5719> before <G4253> me <G1700>.
8
Jesus <G2424> saith <G3004> <G5719> unto him <G0846>, Rise <G1453> <G5669>, take up <G0142> <G5657> thy <G4675> bed <G2895>, and <G2532> walk <G4043> <G5720>.
9
And <G2532> immediately <G2112> the man <G0444> was made <G1096> <G5633> whole <G5199>, and <G2532> took up <G0142> <G5656> his <G0848> bed <G2895>, and <G2532> walked <G4043> <G5707>: and <G1161> on <G1722> the same <G1565> day <G2250> was <G2258> <G5713> the sabbath <G4521>.
10
The Jews <G2453> therefore <G3767> said <G3004> <G5707> unto him that was cured <G2323> <G5772>, It is <G2076> <G5748> the sabbath day <G4521>: it is <G1832> <G0000> not <G3756> lawful <G1832> <G5748> for thee <G4671> to carry <G0142> <G5658> [thy] bed <G2895>.
11
He answered <G0611> <G5662> them <G0846>, He that made <G4160> <G5660> me <G3165> whole <G5199>, the same <G1565> said <G2036> <G5627> unto me <G3427>, Take up <G0142> <G5657> thy <G4675> bed <G2895>, and <G2532> walk <G4043> <G5720>.
12
Then <G3767> asked they <G2065> <G5656> him <G0846>, What <G3739> <G5101> man <G0444> is <G2076> <G5748> that which <G3588> said <G2036> <G5631> unto thee <G4671>, Take up <G0142> <G5657> thy <G4675> bed <G2895>, and <G2532> walk <G4043> <G5720>?
13
And <G1161> he that was healed <G2390> <G5685> wist <G1492> <G5715> not <G3756> who <G5101> it was <G2076> <G5748>: for <G1063> Jesus <G2424> had conveyed himself away <G1593> <G5656>, a multitude <G3793> being <G5607> <G5752> in <G1722> [that] place <G5117>.
14
Afterward <G3326> <G5023> Jesus <G2424> findeth <G2147> <G5719> him <G0846> in <G1722> the temple <G2411>, and <G2532> said <G2036> <G5627> unto him <G0846>, Behold <G2396>, thou art made <G1096> <G5754> whole <G5199>: sin <G0264> <G5720> no more <G3371>, lest <G3363> a worse thing <G5501> <G5100> come <G1096> <G5638> unto thee <G4671>.
15
The man <G0444> departed <G0565> <G5627>, and <G2532> told <G0312> <G5656> the Jews <G2453> that <G3754> it was <G2076> <G5748> Jesus <G2424>, which <G3588> had made <G4160> <G5660> him <G0846> whole <G5199>.
16
And <G2532> therefore <G1223> <G5124> did <G1377> <G0000> the Jews <G2453> persecute <G1377> <G5707> Jesus <G2424>, and <G2532> sought <G2212> <G5707> to slay <G0615> <G5658> him <G0846>, because <G3754> he had done <G4160> <G5707> these things <G5023> on <G1722> the sabbath day <G4521>.
17
But <G1161> Jesus <G2424> answered <G0611> <G5662> them <G0846>, My <G3450> Father <G3962> worketh <G2038> <G5736> hitherto <G2193> <G0737>, and I <G2504> work <G2038> <G5736>.
18
Therefore <G1223> <G5124> <G3767> the Jews <G2453> sought <G2212> <G5707> the more <G3123> to kill <G0615> <G5658> him <G0846>, because <G3754> he <G3089> <G0000> not <G3756> only <G3440> had broken <G3089> <G5707> the sabbath <G4521>, but <G0235> said <G3004> <G5707> also <G2532> that God <G2316> was his <G2398> Father <G3962>, making <G4160> <G5723> himself <G1438> equal <G2470> with God <G2316>.
19
Then <G3767> answered <G0611> <G5662> Jesus <G2424> and <G2532> said <G2036> <G5627> unto them <G0846>, Verily <G0281>, verily <G0281>, I say <G3004> <G5719> unto you <G5213>, The Son <G5207> can <G1410> <G5736> <G3756> do <G4160> <G5721> nothing <G3762> of <G0575> himself <G1438>, but <G3362> what <G5100> he seeth <G0991> <G5725> the Father <G3962> do <G4160> <G5723>: for <G1063> what things soever <G0302> he <G1565> doeth <G4160> <G5725>, these <G5023> also <G2532> doeth <G4160> <G5719> the Son <G5207> likewise <G3668>.
20
For <G1063> the Father <G3962> loveth <G5368> <G5719> the Son <G5207>, and <G2532> sheweth <G1166> <G5719> him <G0846> all things <G3956> that <G3739> himself <G0846> doeth <G4160> <G5719>: and <G2532> he will shew <G1166> <G5692> him <G0846> greater <G3187> <G0000> works <G2041> than <G3187> these <G5130>, that <G2443> ye <G5210> may marvel <G2296> <G5725>.
21
For <G1063> as <G5618> the Father <G3962> raiseth up <G1453> <G5719> the dead <G3498>, and <G2532> quickeneth <G2227> <G5719> [them]; even <G2532> so <G3779> the Son <G5207> quickeneth <G2227> <G5719> whom <G3739> he will <G2309> <G5719>.
22
For <G1063> <G3761> the Father <G3962> judgeth <G2919> <G5719> no man <G3762>, but <G0235> hath committed <G1325> <G5758> all <G3956> judgment <G2920> unto the Son <G5207>:
23
That <G2443> all <G3956> [men] should honour <G5091> <G5725> the Son <G5207>, even as <G2531> they honour <G5091> <G5719> the Father <G3962>. He that honoureth <G5091> <G5723> not <G3361> the Son <G5207> honoureth <G5091> <G5719> not <G3756> the Father <G3962> which <G3588> hath sent <G3992> <G5660> him <G0846>.
24
Verily <G0281>, verily <G0281>, I say <G3004> <G5719> unto you <G5213>, <G3754> He that heareth <G0191> <G5723> my <G3450> word <G3056>, and <G2532> believeth <G4100> <G5723> on him that sent <G3992> <G5660> me <G3165>, hath <G2192> <G5719> everlasting <G0166> life <G2222>, and <G2532> shall <G2064> <G0000> not <G3756> come <G2064> <G5736> into <G1519> condemnation <G2920>; but <G0235> is passed <G3327> <G5758> from <G1537> death <G2288> unto <G1519> life <G2222>.
25
Verily <G0281>, verily <G0281>, I say <G3004> <G5719> unto you <G5213>, <G3754> The hour <G5610> is coming <G2064> <G5736>, and <G2532> now <G3568> is <G2076> <G5748>, when <G3753> the dead <G3498> shall hear <G0191> <G5695> the voice <G5456> of the Son <G5207> of God <G2316>: and <G2532> they that hear <G0191> <G5660> shall live <G2198> <G5695>.
26
For <G1063> as <G5618> the Father <G3962> hath <G2192> <G5719> life <G2222> in <G1722> himself <G1438>; so <G2532> <G3779> hath he given <G1325> <G5656> to the Son <G5207> to have <G2192> <G5721> life <G2222> in <G1722> himself <G1438>;
27
And <G2532> hath given <G1325> <G5656> him <G0846> authority <G1849> to execute <G4160> <G5721> judgment <G2920> also <G2532>, because <G3754> he is <G2076> <G5748> the Son <G5207> of man <G0444>.
28
Marvel <G2296> <G5720> not <G3361> at this <G5124>: for <G3754> the hour <G5610> is coming <G2064> <G5736>, in <G1722> the which <G3739> all <G3956> that are in <G1722> the graves <G3419> shall hear <G0191> <G5695> his <G0846> voice <G5456>,
29
And <G2532> shall come forth <G1607> <G5695>; they that have done <G4160> <G5660> good <G0018>, unto <G1519> the resurrection <G0386> of life <G2222>; and <G1161> they that have done <G4238> <G5660> evil <G5337>, unto <G1519> the resurrection <G0386> of damnation <G2920>.
30
I <G1473> can <G1410> <G5736> of <G0575> mine own self <G1683> do <G4160> <G5721> nothing <G3756> <G3762>: as <G2531> I hear <G0191> <G5719>, I judge <G2919> <G5719>: and <G2532> my <G1699> judgment <G2920> is <G2076> <G5748> just <G1342>; because <G3754> I seek <G2212> <G5719> not <G3756> mine own <G1699> will <G2307>, but <G0235> the will <G2307> of the Father <G3962> which <G3739> hath sent <G3992> <G5660> me <G3165>.
31
If <G1437> I <G1473> bear witness <G3140> <G5725> of <G4012> myself <G1683>, my <G3450> witness <G3141> is <G2076> <G5748> not <G3756> true <G0227>.
32
There is <G2076> <G5748> another <G0243> that beareth witness <G3140> <G5723> of <G4012> me <G1700>; and <G2532> I know <G1492> <G5758> that <G3754> the witness <G3141> which <G3739> he witnesseth <G3140> <G5719> of <G4012> me <G1700> is <G2076> <G5748> true <G0227>.
33
Ye <G5210> sent <G0649> <G5758> unto <G4314> John <G2491>, and <G2532> he bare witness <G3140> <G5758> unto the truth <G0225>.
34
But <G1161> I <G1473> receive <G2983> <G5719> not <G3756> testimony <G3141> from <G3844> man <G0444>: but <G0235> these things <G5023> I say <G3004> <G5719>, that <G2443> ye <G5210> might be saved <G4982> <G5686>.
35
He <G1565> was <G2258> <G5713> a burning <G2545> <G5746> and <G2532> a shining <G5316> <G5723> light <G3088>: and <G1161> ye <G5210> were willing <G2309> <G5656> for <G4314> a season <G5610> to rejoice <G0021> <G5677> in <G1722> his <G0846> light <G5457>.
36
But <G1161> I <G1473> have <G2192> <G5719> greater <G3187> witness <G3141> than [that] of John <G2491>: for <G1063> the works <G2041> which <G3739> the Father <G3962> hath given <G1325> <G5656> me <G3427> to <G2443> finish <G5048> <G5661> <G0846>, the same <G0846> works <G2041> that <G3739> I <G1473> do <G4160> <G5719>, bear witness <G3140> <G5719> of <G4012> me <G1700>, that <G3754> the Father <G3962> hath sent <G0649> <G5758> me <G3165>.
37
And <G2532> the Father <G3962> himself <G0846>, which hath sent <G3992> <G5660> me <G3165>, hath borne witness <G3140> <G5758> of <G4012> me <G1700>. Ye have <G0191> <G0000> neither <G3777> heard <G0191> <G5754> his <G0846> voice <G5456> at any time <G4455>, nor <G3777> seen <G3708> <G5758> his <G0846> shape <G1491>.
38
And <G2532> ye have <G2192> <G5719> not <G3756> his <G0846> word <G3056> abiding <G3306> <G5723> in <G1722> you <G5213>: for <G3754> whom <G3739> <G1565> he hath sent <G0649> <G5656>, him <G5129> ye <G5210> believe <G4100> <G5719> not <G3756>.
39
Search <G2045> <G5719> <G5720> the scriptures <G1124>; for <G3754> in <G1722> them <G0846> ye <G5210> think <G1380> <G5719> ye have <G2192> <G5721> eternal <G0166> life <G2222>: and <G2532> they <G1565> are they <G1526> <G5748> which testify <G3140> <G5723> of <G4012> me <G1700>.
40
And <G2532> ye will <G2309> <G5719> not <G3756> come <G2064> <G5629> to <G4314> me <G3165>, that <G2443> ye might have <G2192> <G5725> life <G2222>.
41
I receive <G2983> <G5719> not <G3756> honour <G1391> from <G3844> men <G0444>.
42
But <G0235> I know <G1097> <G5758> you <G5209>, that <G3754> ye have <G2192> <G5719> not <G3756> the love <G0026> of God <G2316> in <G1722> you <G1438>.
43
I am <G1473> come <G2064> <G5754> in <G1722> my <G3450> Father's <G3962> name <G3686>, and <G2532> ye receive <G2983> <G5719> me <G3165> not <G3756>: if <G1437> another <G0243> shall come <G2064> <G5632> in <G1722> his own <G2398> name <G3686>, him <G1565> ye will receive <G2983> <G5695>.
44
How <G4459> can <G1410> <G5736> ye <G5210> believe <G4100> <G5658>, which receive <G2983> <G5723> honour <G1391> one of another <G3844> <G0240>, and <G2532> seek <G2212> <G5719> not <G3756> the honour <G1391> that [cometh] from <G3844> God <G2316> only <G3441>?
45
Do <G1380> <G0000> not <G3361> think <G1380> <G5720> that <G3754> I <G1473> will accuse <G2723> <G5692> you <G5216> to <G4314> the Father <G3962>: there is <G2076> <G5748> [one] that accuseth <G2723> <G5723> you <G5216>, [even] Moses <G3475>, in <G1519> whom <G3739> ye <G5210> trust <G1679> <G5758>.
46
For <G1063> <G1487> had ye believed <G4100> <G5707> Moses <G3475>, ye would have believed <G4100> <G5707> <G0302> me <G1698>: for <G1063> he <G1565> wrote <G1125> <G5656> of <G4012> me <G1700>.
47
But <G1161> if <G1487> ye believe <G4100> <G5719> not <G3756> his <G1565> writings <G1121>, how <G4459> shall ye believe <G4100> <G5692> my <G1699> words <G4487>?
