< John 5 >

1 After these things, there was a feast day of the Jews, and so Jesus ascended to Jerusalem.
ⲁ̅ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲡϣⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅.
2 Now at Jerusalem is the Pool of Evidence, which in Hebrew is known as the Place of Mercy; it has five porticos.
ⲃ̅⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⲇⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ϯ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲃⲁⲧⲓⲕⲏ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲕⲟⲗⲩⲙⲃⲏⲑⲣⲁ ⲑⲏ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲉⲧϩⲉⲃⲣⲉⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲃⲏⲑⲥⲁⲓⲇⲁ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥⲧⲟ⳿ⲁ.
3 Along these lay a great multitude of the sick, the blind, the lame, and the withered, waiting for the movement of the water.
ⲅ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩⲣⲟϫⲡ ⲡⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙⲏ ϣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲏⲉⲧϣⲱⲛⲓ ϩⲁⲛⲃⲉⲗⲗⲉⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛϭⲁⲗⲉⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲉⲩϣⲟⲩ⳿ⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲩϫⲟⲩϣⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲩⲕⲓⲙ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ.
4 Now at times an Angel of the Lord would descend into the pool, and so the water was moved. And whoever descended first into the pool, after the motion of the water, he was healed of whatever infirmity held him.
ⲇ̅ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲉϥ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ϧⲉⲛ ϯⲕⲟⲗⲩⲙⲃⲏⲑⲣⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϥⲕⲓⲙ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉϥ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲏ ⲧ ⳿ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲡⲓⲕⲓⲙ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲉϥ⳿ⲉⲉⲣⲫⲁϧⲣⲓ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲛⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲛⲧⲁϥ.
5 And there was a certain man in that place, having been in his infirmity for thirty-eight years.
ⲉ̅ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲁϥⲉⲣ ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ ⳿ⲛⲣⲟⲙⲡⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉϥϣⲱⲛⲓ.
6 Then, when Jesus had seen him reclining, and when he realized that he had been afflicted for a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be healed?”
ⲋ̅ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥ⳿ⲛⲕⲟⲧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲉⲣ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲭⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲭⲟⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ.
7 The invalid answered him: “Lord, I do not have any man to put me in the pool, when the water has been stirred. For as I am going, another descends ahead of me.”
ⲍ̅ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧϣⲱⲛⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲡⲁ⳪ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛϯ ⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛⲑⲟϩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϩⲓⲧ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϯⲕⲟⲗⲩⲙⲃⲏⲑⲣⲁ ϩⲱⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϣⲁⲣⲉ ⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲉⲣϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ.
8 Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your stretcher, and walk.”
ⲏ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲧⲱⲛⲕ ⳿ⲁⲗⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕϭ ⲗⲟϫ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲟϣⲓ.
9 And immediately the man was healed. And he took up his stretcher and walked. Now this day was the Sabbath.
ⲑ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲥⲁⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲁϥⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥϭⲗⲟϫ ⲁϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ.
10 Therefore, the Jews said to the one who had been healed: “It is the Sabbath. It is not lawful for you to take up your stretcher.”
ⲓ̅ⲛⲁⲩϫⲱ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲉⲣⲫⲁϧⲣⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲥϣⲉ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕϭⲗⲟϫ.
11 He answered them, “The one who healed me, he said to me, ‘Take up your stretcher and walk.’”
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲑⲣⲓⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲡⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲓ ϫⲉ ⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕϭⲗⲟϫ ⲙⲁϣⲉ ⲛⲁⲕ.
12 Therefore, they questioned him, “Who is that man, who said to you, ‘Take up your bed and walk?’”
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩϣⲉⲛϥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲕ ϫⲉ ⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕ ϭⲗⲟϫ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲟϣⲓ.
13 But the one who had been given health did not know who it was. For Jesus had turned aside from the crowd gathered in that place.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲫⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⲛⲁϥ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ.
14 Afterwards, Jesus found him in the temple, and he said to him: “Behold, you have been healed. Do not choose to sin further, otherwise something worse may happen to you.”
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϫⲉⲙϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲁⲕⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ϫⲉ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ ⲡⲉⲧϩⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩⲟ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲕ.
15 This man went away, and he reported to the Jews that it was Jesus who had given him health.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲁϥϣⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲑⲣⲓⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ.
16 Because of this, the Jews were persecuting Jesus, for he was doing these things on the Sabbath.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲛⲁⲩϭⲟϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁϥ⳿⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ.
17 But Jesus answered them, “Even now, my Father is working, and I am working.”
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ϣⲁ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲡⲁⲓⲱⲧ ⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϩⲱ ϯⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ.
18 And so, because of this, the Jews were seeking to kill him even more so. For not only did he break the Sabbath, but he even said that God was his Father, making himself equal to God.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⲛⲁⲩⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱϥ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲑⲃⲉϥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲙⲟⲛⲟⲛ ⲛⲁϥⲃⲱⲗ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲁϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲫϯ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲓⲱⲧ ⲉϥ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϩⲓⲥⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲫϯ.
19 Then Jesus responded and said to them: “Amen, amen, I say to you, the Son is not able to do anything of himself, but only what he has seen the Father doing. For whatever he does, even this does the Son do, similarly.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲁⲙⲏⲛ ⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⲉⲣ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲁϥ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲉϥ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲣⲁ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲕⲉϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ.
20 For the Father loves the Son, and he shows him all that he himself does. And greater works than these will he show him, so much so that you shall wonder.

21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives life, so also does the Son give life to whomever he wills.

22 For the Father does not judge anyone. But he has given all judgment to the Son,

23 so that all may honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son, does not honor the Father who sent him.

25 Amen, amen, I say to you, that the hour is coming, and it is now, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear it shall live.

26 For just as the Father has life in himself, so also has he granted to the Son to have life in himself.

27 And he has given him the authority to accomplish judgment. For he is the Son of man.

28 Do not be amazed at this. For the hour is coming in which all who are in the grave shall hear the voice of the Son of God.

29 And those who have done good shall go forth to the resurrection of life. Yet truly, those who have done evil shall go to the resurrection of judgment.

30 I am not able to do anything of myself. As I hear, so do I judge. And my judgment is just. For I do not seek my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

36 But I hold a greater testimony than that of John. For the works which the Father has given to me, so that I may complete them, these works themselves that I do, offer testimony about me: that the Father has sent me.

37 And the Father who has sent me has himself offered testimony about me. And you have never heard his voice, nor have you beheld his appearance.

39 Study the Scriptures. For you think that in them you have eternal life. And yet they also offer testimony about me. (aiōnios g166)

43 I have come in the name of my Father, and you do not accept me. If another will arrive in his own name, him you will accept.
ⲙ̅ⲅ̅⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲁⲓ⳿ⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲣⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲱⲧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϭⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲣⲉϣⲁⲛ ⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿Ⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲫⲱϥ ⳿ⲛⲣⲁⲛ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϭⲓⲧϥ.
44 How are you able to believe, you who accept glory from one another and yet do not seek the glory that is from God alone?
ⲙ̅ⲇ̅ⲡⲱⲥ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϩϯ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛϭⲓⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲡⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱϥ ⲁⲛ.
45 Do not consider that I might accuse you with the Father. There is one who accuses you, Moses, in whom you hope.
ⲙ̅ⲉ̅ⲙⲏ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉⲩⲓ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉⲑⲛⲁⲉⲣⲕⲁⲧⲏ ⲅⲟⲣⲓⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁⲉⲣⲕⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲣⲓⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲙⲱ⳿ⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⲫⲏ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
46 For if you were believing in Moses, perhaps you would believe in me also. For he wrote about me.
ⲙ̅ⲋ̅⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲉⲙⲱ⳿ⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⲛⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ϩⲱ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲁ ⲫⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧ.
47 But if you do not believe by his writings, how will you believe by my words?”
ⲙ̅ⲍ̅ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫⲏ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲡⲱⲥ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲥⲁϫⲓ
