< John 5 >
1 After these things there was (the *o*) feast of the Jews, and went up (*k*) Jesus to Jerusalem.
After these things 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 near the sheep-market a pool, called in Hebrew Bethesda, with five porticos about it.
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 number of people that were infirm, blind, lame, 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 descended at a certain season into the pool, and moved the water; the first therefore that went in after the disturbing of the water, was cured of whatever malady he laboured under.
5 There was now a certain man there thirty (and *no*) eight years being in infirmity (himself. *no*)
And there was a man who had been under illness thirty 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?
Jesus seeing him lie there, and knowing that he had been now a long time ill, saith unto him, Dost thou desire to be cured?
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 infirm man answered Him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is moved, to put me into the pool; but while I am coming, another goes 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 cured: and he took up his bed and walked.
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*)
Now this was the sabbath-day, therefore the Jews said to him that was cured, It is the sabbath, 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 well, 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?’
Therefore they asked him, Who is the man that said to 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.
but he, that was healed, did not know who it was: for Jesus had withdrawn himself, there being many people in the 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.
Afterwards Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art healed; sin no more, least something worse befal thee.
15 Went away the man and (told *NK(o)*) to the Jews that Jesus it is the [One] having made him well.
And the man went away, and told the Jews, that it was Jesus who had healed him.
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 for this did the Jews persecute Jesus, and endeavoured to put Him to death; 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 without intermission, and so do I.
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.
For this therefore the Jews sought the more to kill Him, because He had not only broken the sabbath, but had also called God his own 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.
Jesus therefore answered 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 whatsoever He doth, these also the Son doth in like manner.
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, which He Himself doth: and He will shew Him greater than these, that ye may wonder.
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 giveth life: even so the Son maketh alive whom He pleaseth.
22 Not for the Father does judge no [one], but judgment all has given to the Son,
For neither doth the Father judge any one, but hath committed all judgement to 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 may honour the Son, even as they honour the Father: he, that honoureth not the Son, honoureth not the Father that 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 )
Verily, verily I say unto you, he, that heareth my word, and believeth in Him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come under condemnation; but is passed from death to life. (aiōnios )
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 tell you, that the time is coming, and even 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 also 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 also to execute judgement, 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
Wonder not at this; for the time is coming, in 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 to the resurrection of life, and they that have done evil to 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 do nothing of my self: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father that hath sent me.
31 If I myself shall bear witness concerning Myself, the testimony of Mine not is true;
If I alone bear witness of my self, my testimony is not true in law:
32 Another it is who is bearing witness concerning Me, and I know that true is the testimony which he bears witness concerning Me.
but there is another who testifieth concerning me; and I know that the testimony, which he giveth concerning me, is true.
33 You yourselves have sent unto John and he has borne witness to the truth;
Ye your selves sent unto John, and he bore witness to the truth:
34 I myself now not from man the testimony receive but these things I say that you yourselves may be saved.
though I need not testimony from man; but I say these things that ye may 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 indeed a burning and shining light, and for a while ye willingly rejoiced 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 a testimony greater than John's: for the works which the Father hath given me to perform, the very works which 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 who sent me, hath Himself borne witness of me: and yet ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.
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; because ye believe not Him, whom He hath sent.
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 )
Ye search the scriptures; for ye think that in them ye have eternal life: (aiōnios )
40 and not you are willing to come to Me that life you may have.
and they testify of me: and yet ye will not come to me, that ye may have life.
41 Glory from men not I take;
Though I desire not applause 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 should 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, who receive applause from each other, and the glory which is from God only, ye seek not?
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.
Think not that I shall 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 if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me; for he wrote concerning 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?
