John 5

1 After these things there was (the *o*) feast of the Jews, and went up (*k*) Jesus to Jerusalem.

After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

2 There is now in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which is being called in Hebrew (Bethzatha, *N(k)O*) five porches having.

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 were lying a multitude (great *K*) of those ailing, blind, lame, paralyzed (waiting for of the water motion. *K*)

In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.

4 (an angel *KO*) (for on occasion was going down among those pool and was troubling the water; the [one] who therefore first was climbing in after the disturbance of the water healthy was becoming of that whatever he was posessed disease. *K*)

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 There was now a certain man there thirty (and *no*) eight years being in infirmity (himself. *no*)

And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.

6 Him having seen Jesus lying, and having known that a long already time he has been, He says to him; Desire you well to become?

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 Answered Him the [one] ailing; Sir, a man not I have that when may be stirred the water (he may put *N(k)O*) me into the pool; in which now am going I myself, another before me descends.

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 Says to him Jesus; (do arise, *N(k)O*) do take up the mat of you and do walk.

Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.

9 And immediately became well the man and he took up the mat of him and was walking; It was now Sabbath on that [very] day.

And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.

10 Were saying therefore the Jews to the [one] healed; Sabbath it is, (and *no*) not it is lawful for you to take up the mat (of you. *NK*)

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 (The [man] *n(o)*) (however *no*) answered them; The [One] having made me well, that One to me said; do take up the mat of you and do walk.

He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.

12 They asked (therefore *KO*) him; Who is the man having said to you; do take up (the *ko*) (mat of you *KO*) and do walk?’

Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?

13 The [one] now having been healed not knew who it is; for Jesus moved away a crowd being in the place.

And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in [that] place.

14 After these things finds him Jesus in the temple and said to him; Behold well you have become; no more do sin that not worse to you something may happen.

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 Went away the man and (told *NK(o)*) to the Jews that Jesus it is the [One] having made him well.

The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.

16 And because of this were persecuting the Jews Jesus (and were seeking him to kill *K*) because these things He was doing on [the] Sabbath.

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; The Father of Mine until now is working, and I myself and I myself am working.

But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.

18 Because of this therefore [the] more were seeking Him the Jews to kill, because not only was He breaking the Sabbath, but also Father His own He was naming God equal Himself making to God.

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 Answered therefore Jesus and (was saying *N(k)O*) to them; Amen Amen I say to you; not is able the Son to do of Himself no [thing], (only *NK(o)*) unless anything He shall see the Father doing. whatever for maybe He shall do, these things also the Son likewise does.

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 loves the Son and all things shows to Him that He himself does, and greater than these He will show to Him works so that you yourselves 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 Even as for the Father raises up the dead and gives life, thus also the Son to whom He wishes gives life.

For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth [them]; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.

22 Not for the Father does judge no [one], but judgment all has given to the Son,

For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

23 so that all may honor the Son even as they honor the Father. He who not is honoring the Son not is honoring the Father the [One] having 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 Amen Amen I say to you that the [one] the word of Mine hearing and believing in the [One] having sent Me he has life eternal and into judgment not comes, 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 Amen Amen I say to you that is coming an hour and now is when the dead (will hear *N(k)O*) the voice of the Son of God and those having heard (will live. *N(k)O*)

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 As for the Father has life in Himself, so also to the Son He gave life to have in Himself,

For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;

27 And authority He gave to Him (and *k*) judgment to carry out, because Son of Man He is.

And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

28 Not do marvel at this, for is coming an hour in which all those in the tombs (will hear *N(k)O*) the voice of Him

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 forth — those good having done to [the] resurrection of life, and those evil having done 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 Not am able I myself to do of Myself no [thing]; even as I hear I judge, and the judgment of Mine just is, because not I seek the will of Me but the will of the [One who] having sent Me ([the] Father. *K*)

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 myself shall bear witness concerning Myself, the testimony of Mine not is true;

If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.

32 Another it is who is bearing witness concerning Me, and I know that true is the testimony which he bears witness concerning Me.

There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.

33 You yourselves have sent unto John and he has borne witness to the truth;

Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.

34 I myself now not from man the testimony receive but these things I say that you yourselves may be saved.

But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved.

35 He was the lamp which is burning and shining, you yourselves now were willing to rejoice for a season in the light of him.

He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.

36 I myself however have the testimony (greater than *N(k)O*) that of John; For the works that (has given *N(k)O*) Me the Father that I may complete them, same the works which (I myself *k*) I do, bear witness concerning Me that the Father Me has sent.

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 [One] having sent Me [the] Father (Himself *N(k)O*) has borne witness concerning Me; Neither voice of Him at any time have You heard nor form of Him have you seen,

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 the word of Him not you have in you abiding for whom sent He, in Him you yourselves not believe.

And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.

39 You diligently search the Scriptures, for you yourselves think in them life eternal to have; and these are they those bearing witness concerning 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 and not you are willing to come to Me that life you may have.

And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.

41 Glory from men not I take;

I receive not honour from men.

42 but I have known you that the love of God not you have in yourselves.

But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

43 I myself have come in the name of the Father of Mine, and not you receive Me; if another shall come in the name the own, him you will receive.

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 are able you yourselves to believe glory from one another receiving and the glory that [is] from the only God not you seek?

How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that [cometh] from God only?

45 Not do think that I myself will accuse you to the Father; There is [one] accusing you Moses in whom you yourselves have hoped.

Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is [one] that accuseth you, [even] Moses, in whom ye trust.

46 If for you were believing in Moses, you were believing then would in Me myself; concerning for Me he wrote.

For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.

47 If now in his writings not you believe, how in My declarations will you believe?

But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
