John 5
1 After these things there was the feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
After this was the feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Now there is at Jerusalem, by the sheep-gate, a pool, which is called in Hebrew Bethzatha, having five porches.
Now there is in Jerusalem, near the sheep-gate, a pool, called, in the Hebrew tongue, Bethesda, with five porches.
3 In these were lying a multitude of diseased persons, blind, lame, withered.
In these lay a great multitude of sick persons, blind, lame, withered, who waited for the moving of the water.
For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and stirred the water. Then he who entered first after the motion of the water, was cured of whatever disease he had.
5 And a certain man was there, who had had his infirmity thirty-eight years.
And a certain man was there, who had been sick thirty-eight years.
6 Jesus saw this man lying there, and knowing that he had been for a long time diseased, saith to him, Dost thou wish to be made well?
When Jesus saw him lying, and knew that he had been already a long time in that condition, he said to him: Do you wish to be restored to health?
7 The diseased 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 goeth down before me.
The sick man answered him: Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred; but while I am coming, another goes down before me.
8 Jesus saith to him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
Jesus said to him: Arise, take up your bed and walk.
9 And immediately the man was made well, and took up his bed, and walked. And that day was the sabbath.
And the man was immediately restored to health; and he took up his bed and walked. And that day was the sabbath.
10 The Jews therefore said to him that was cured, It is the sabbath; and it is not lawful for thee to take up the bed.
The Jews, therefore, said to him that was cured: It is the sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed.
11 He answered them, He that made me well, the same said to me, Take up thy bed, and walk. T
He answered them: He that restored me to health said to me, Take up your bed and walk.
12 hey asked him, Who is the man that said to thee, Take up, and walk?
Then they asked him: Who is he that said to you, Take up your bed and walk?
13 But the diseased man knew not who it was; for Jesus had withdrawn himself, there being a crowd in the place.
But he that had been restored to health knew not who he was; for Jesus had withdrawn himself, because a multitude was in the place.
14 Afterwards Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art made well; sin no more, lest something worse befall thee.
After this Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him: Behold, you have been restored to health; sin no more, lest some worse thing befall you.
15 The man went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus that had restored him to health.
16 And on this account the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did these things on the sabbath.
And for this reason did the Jews persecute Jesus, and seek to kill him, because he had done these things on the sabbath.
17 But he answered them, My Father is working up to this time, and I work.
But Jesus answered them: My Father works till now, and I also work.
18 On this account the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath, but also said that God was his own Father, making himself equal with God.
For this reason, therefore, the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he had not only broken the sabbath, but also said that God was his own father, making himself equal with God.
19 Then answered Jesus and said to them, Truly, truly do I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing; for whatever He doeth, these things the Son also doeth in like manner;
Then Jesus answered and said to them: Verily, verily I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do; for whatever things he does, these also the Son does in like manner.
20 for the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things which he himself doeth; and greater works than these will he show him, so that ye will wonder.
For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does; and he will show him greater works than these, that you may be astonished.
21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and giveth them life, so the Son also giveth life to whom he will.
For as the Father raises the dead, and makes them alive, so also the Son makes alive whom he will.
22 For neither doth the Father judge any one, but hath committed all judgment to the Son;
For the Father judges no one, but has given all judicial authority to the Son;
23 that all may honor the Son, as they honor the Father. He that honoreth not the Son, honoreth not the Father, who sent him.
that all may honor the Son, as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son, honors not the Father who sent him.
24 Truly, truly do I say to you, He that heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and cometh not into condemnation, but hath passed out of death into life. (aiōnios g166)
Verily, verily I say to you, He that hears my word, and believes on him that sent me, has eternal life, and comes not into condemnation, but has passed from death into life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Truly, truly do I say to you, The hour is coming and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear will live.
Verily, verily I say to you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear, shall live.
26 For as the Father hath life in himself, so did he give to the Son also to have life in himself.
For as the Father has life in himself, so has he given to the Son also to have life in himself;
27 And he gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man.
and he has 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 which all that are in the tombs will hear his voice,
Be not astonished at this; for the hour is coming in which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 and will come forth, they that have done good, to a resurrection of life; they that have done evil, to a resurrection of condemnation.
and shall come forth; those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.
30 I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
31 If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is not worthy of credit.
32 There is another who beareth witness of me; and ye know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
There is another that testifies concerning me, and I know that the testimony which he testifies concerning me is worthy of credit.
33 Ye have sent to John, and he hath borne witness to the truth.
You sent to John, and he bore testimony to the truth.
34 But the testimony which I receive is not from man; but these things I say, that ye may be saved.
But I receive not testimony from man; yet I say these things that you may be saved.
35 He was the burning and shining lamp: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
He was the burning and shining lamp; and you were willing, for a time, to rejoice in his light.
36 But the testimony which I have, is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father hath given me to perform, the works themselves which I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
But I have testimony greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has given me to finish, these very works which I do, testify concerning me, that the Father has sent me.
37 And the Father who sent me, he hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.
And the Father, who sent me, has testified concerning me. You 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 sent, him ye believe not.
And his word you have not remaining in you; for whom he has sent, him you believe not.
39 Ye search the Scriptures, because ye yourselves think that in them ye have everlasting life; and it is they which testify of me; (aiōnios g166)
You search the scriptures, because in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify concerning me: (aiōnios g166)
40 and ye are not willing to come to me, that ye may have life.
and yet you refuse to come to me, that you may have life.
41 I receive not honor from men;
I receive not honor from men.
42 but I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
But I know you, that you have not the love of God in you.
43 I have come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not; if another come in his own name, him ye will receive.
I have come in my Father’s name, and you receive me not; if another should come in his own name, him you would receive.
44 How can ye believe while ye receive honor from one another, and seek not the honor that is from him who alone is God?
How can you believe who receive honor one from another, and seek not the honor that comes from God alone?
45 Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye have placed your hope.
Think not that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuses you, Moses, in whom you trust.
46 For if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me; for he wrote of me.
For if you had believed Moses, you would have believed me; for he wrote of me.
47 But if ye do not believe his writings, how will ye believe my words?
But if you believe not his writings, how shall you believe my words?
