John 5
1 After these things, there was a Jewish festival, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Yahushua went up to Jerusalem.
2 Now in Jerusalem by the sheep area there is a pool, which is called in Hebrew, "Beth Hesda," having five porches.
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 multitude of those who were sick, blind, lame, or paralyzed.
In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
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 A certain man was there, who had been sick for thirty-eight years.
And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been sick for a long time, he asked him, "Do you want to be made well?"
When Yahushua 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 sick man answered him, "Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I am on my way, someone else steps down ahead of me."
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 said to him, "Arise, take up your mat, and walk."
Yahushua saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 Immediately, the man was made well, and took up his mat and walked. Now it was the Sabbath on that day.
And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the Sabbath.
10 So the Jewish leaders said to him who was cured, "It is the Sabbath. It is not lawful for you to carry the mat."
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 But he answered them, "The one who made me well, that one said to me, 'Take up your mat, and walk.'"
He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
12 Then they asked him, "Who is the man who said to you to pick it up and walk?"
Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?
13 But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a crowd being in the place.
And he that was healed knew not who it was: for Yahushua had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.
14 Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, "See, you are made well. Sin no more, so that nothing worse happens to you."
Afterward Yahushua 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 went away, and told the Jewish leaders that it was Jesus who had made him well.
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Yahushua, which had made him whole.
16 For this cause the Jewish leaders persecuted Jesus, because he did these things on the Sabbath.
And therefore did the Jews persecute Yahushua, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the Sabbath day.
17 But he answered them, "My Father is still working, so I am working, too."
But Yahushua answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
18 For this cause therefore the Jewish leaders sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the Sabbath, but said also that Elohim was his Father, making himself equal with Elohim.
19 Jesus therefore answered them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father doing. For whatever things he does, these the Son also does likewise.
Then answered Yahushua 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 loves the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does. He will show him greater works than these, so that you may marvel.
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 raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom he desires.
For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
22 For the Father judges no one, but he has given all judgment to the Son,
For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
23 that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.
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 "Truly, truly, I tell you, he who hears my word, and believes him who sent me, has everlasting life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life. (aiōnios g166)
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. (aiōnios g166)
25 Truly, truly, I tell you, the hour comes, and now is, when the dead will hear the Son of God's voice; and those who hear will live.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of YHWH: and they that hear shall live.
26 For as the Father has life in himself, even so he gave to the Son also to have life in himself.
For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
27 He also gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man.
And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
28 Do not be amazed at this, for the hour comes, in which all that are in the tombs will hear his voice,
Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 and will come out; those who have done good, to the resurrection of life; and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.
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 myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous; because I do not seek my own will, but the will of the One who sent me.
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 testify about myself, my witness is not valid.
If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
32 It is another who testifies about me. I know that the testimony which he testifies about me is true.
There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
33 You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.
Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
34 But the testimony which I receive is not from man. However, I say these things that you may be saved.
But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved.
35 He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.
He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
36 But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John, for the works which the Father gave me to accomplish, the very works that I do, testify about me, that the Father has sent me.
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 The Father himself, who sent me, has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.
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 You do not have his word living in you; because you do not believe him whom he sent.
And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
39 You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have everlasting life; and these are they which testify about me. (aiōnios g166)
Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. (aiōnios g166)
40 But you are unwilling to come to me so that you may have life.
And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
41 I do not receive glory from people.
I receive not honour from men.
42 But I know you, that you do not have God's love in yourselves.
But I know you, that ye have not the love of Elohim in you.
43 I have come in my Father's name, and you do not receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.
I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
44 How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?
How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from Elohim only?
45 "Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, even Moses, on whom you have set your hope.
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 if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote about me.
For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?"
But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
