Iohannem 5
1 Post hæc erat dies festus Judæorum, et ascendit Jesus Jerosolymam.
After these things, was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up unto Jerusalem.
2 Est autem Jerosolymis probatica piscina, quæ cognominatur hebraice Bethsaida, quinque porticus habens.
Now there is in Jerusalem, at the Sheep-gate, a pool, which is called in Hebrew Bethzatha, —having, five porches.
3 In his jacebat multitudo magna languentium, cæcorum, claudorum, aridorum, exspectantium aquæ motum.
In these, was lying a throng of them who were sick, —blind, lame, withered.
4 Angelus autem Domini descendebat secundum tempus in piscinam, et movebatur aqua. Et qui prior descendisset in piscinam post motionem aquæ, sanus fiebat a quacumque detinebatur infirmitate.
5 Erat autem quidam homo ibi triginta et octo annos habens in infirmitate sua.
And there was a certain man there, who, for thirty-eight years, had continued in his sickness.
6 Hunc autem cum vidisset Jesus jacentem, et cognovisset quia jam multum tempus haberet, dicit ei: Vis sanus fieri?
Jesus, seeing, this one, lying, and taking note that now, a long time, had he continued, saith unto him—Desirest thou to be made, well?
7 Respondit ei languidus: Domine, hominem non habeo, ut, cum turbata fuerit aqua, mittat me in piscinam: dum venio enim ego, alius ante me descendit.
The sick man answered him—Sir! I have, no man, that, as soon as the water hath been troubled, might thrust me into the pool; but, while, I, am coming, another, before me, goeth down.
8 Dicit ei Jesus: Surge, tolle grabatum tuum et ambula.
Jesus saith unto him—Rise! take up thy couch, and be walking.
9 Et statim sanus factus est homo ille: et sustulit grabatum suum, et ambulabat. Erat autem sabbatum in die illo.
And, straightway, the man was made well and took up his couch, and began to walk. Now it was Sabbath, on that day.
10 Dicebant ergo Judæi illi qui sanatus fuerat: Sabbatum est, non licet tibi tollere grabatum tuum.
The Jews, therefore, were saying, unto him who had been cured—It is, Sabbath; and it is not allowable for thee to take up thy couch: —
11 Respondit eis: Qui me sanum fecit, ille mihi dixit: Tolle grabatum tuum et ambula.
who, however, answered them—He that made me well, he, unto me, said—Take up thy couch, and be walking.
12 Interrogaverunt ergo eum: Quis est ille homo qui dixit tibi: Tolle grabatum tuum et ambula?
They questioned him—Who is the man that said unto thee, Take up [thy couch], and be walking?
13 Is autem qui sanus fuerat effectus, nesciebat quis esset. Jesus enim declinavit a turba constituta in loco.
But, the healed one, knew not, who, it was; for, Jesus, had turned aside, a multitude, being in the place.
14 Postea invenit eum Jesus in templo, et dixit illi: Ecce sanus factus es; jam noli peccare, ne deterius tibi aliquid contingat.
After these things, Jesus findeth him, in the temple, and said unto him—See! thou hast become, well: —No more, be committing sin, lest, some worse thing, do thee befall.
15 Abiit ille homo, et nuntiavit Judæis quia Jesus esset, qui fecit eum sanum.
The man went away, and told the Jews, that it was, Jesus, who had made him well.
16 Propterea persequebantur Judæi Jesum, quia hæc faciebat in sabbato.
And, on this account, were the Jews persecuting Jesus, because, these things, he had been doing, on Sabbath.
17 Jesus autem respondit eis: Pater meus usque modo operatur, et ego operor.
But, he, answered them—My Father, until even now, is working; and, I, am working.
18 Propterea ergo magis quærebant eum Judæi interficere: quia non solum solvebat sabbatum, sed et patrem suum dicebat Deum, æqualem se faciens Deo. Respondit itaque Jesus, et dixit eis:
On this account, therefore, the rather, were the Jews seeking to slay him, —because, not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but was calling God, his own Father, making, himself, equal, with, God.
19 Amen, amen dico vobis: non potest Filius a se facere quidquam, nisi quod viderit Patrem facientem: quæcumque enim ille fecerit, hæc et Filius similiter facit.
Jesus, therefore, answered, and went on to say unto them—Verily, verily, I say unto you: The Son cannot be doing, of himself, a single thing, —save anything he may see, the Father, doing; for, whatsoever, he, may be doing, these things, the Son also, in like manner, doeth.
20 Pater enim diligit Filium, et omnia demonstrat ei quæ ipse facit: et majora his demonstrabit ei opera, ut vos miremini.
For, the Father, dearly loveth the Son, and, all things, pointeth out to him, which, himself, is doing; and, greater works than these, will he point out to him, that, ye, may marvel.
21 Sicut enim Pater suscitat mortuos, et vivificat, sic et Filius, quos vult, vivificat.
For, just as the Father waketh up the dead, and quickeneth them, in like manner, the Son also, whom he pleaseth, doth quicken.
22 Neque enim Pater judicat quemquam: sed omne judicium dedit Filio,
For neither doth, the Father, judge anyone, —but, all the judging, hath given unto the Son:
23 ut omnes honorificent Filium, sicut honorificant Patrem; qui non honorificat Filium, non honorificat Patrem, qui misit illum.
That, all, may honour the Son, just as they honour the Father: he that doth not honour the Son, doth not, in fact, honour the Father who sent him.
24 Amen, amen dico vobis, quia qui verbum meum audit, et credit ei qui misit me, habet vitam æternam, et in judicium non venit, sed transiit a morte in vitam. (aiōnios g166)
Verily, verily, I say unto you: He that heareth, my word, and believeth in him that sent me, hath life age-abiding, and, into judgment, cometh not, but hath passed over, out of death into life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Amen, amen dico vobis, quia venit hora, et nunc est, quando mortui audient vocem Filii Dei: et qui audierint, vivent.
Verily, verily, I say unto you: There cometh an hour, and now is, when, the dead, shall hearken unto the voice of the Son of God, and, they who have hearkened, shall live.
26 Sicut enim Pater habet vitam in semetipso, sic dedit et Filio habere vitam in semetipso:
For, just as, the Father, hath life, in himself, in like manner, unto the Son also, hath he given, life, to have, in himself;
27 et potestatem dedit ei judicium facere, quia Filius hominis est.
And, authority, hath he given him, to be executing, judgment, —because, Son of Man, is he!
28 Nolite mirari hoc, quia venit hora in qua omnes qui in monumentis sunt audient vocem Filii Dei:
Do not be marvelling at this: because there come an hour, in which, all they in the tombs, shall hearken unto his voice,
29 et procedent qui bona fecerunt, in resurrectionem vitæ; qui vero mala egerunt, in resurrectionem judicii.
and shall come forth, —they who, the good things, have done, unto a resurrection, of life; but, they who the corrupt things, have practised, unto a resurrection, of judgment.
30 Non possum ego a meipso facere quidquam. Sicut audio, judico: et judicium meum justum est, quia non quæro voluntatem meam, sed voluntatem ejus qui misit me.
I, cannot be doing, of myself, a single thing, —Just as I hear, I judge; and, my judging, is, just, —because I seek not my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
31 Si ego testimonium perhibeo de meipso, testimonium meum non est verum.
If, I, bear witness, concerning myself, my witness, is not, true.
32 Alius est qui testimonium perhibet de me: et scio quia verum est testimonium, quod perhibet de me.
Another, it is, who beareth witness concerning me, —and I know that, true, is the witness which he witnesseth concerning me.
33 Vos misistis ad Joannem, et testimonium perhibuit veritati.
Ye, have sent forth unto John, —and he hath borne witness to the truth: —
34 Ego autem non ab homine testimonium accipio: sed hæc dico ut vos salvi sitis.
I, however, not from man, my witness, receive; but, these things, I say, that, ye, may be saved: —
35 Ille erat lucerna ardens et lucens: vos autem voluistis ad horam exsultare in luce ejus.
He, was the burning and shining lamp, and, ye, were willing to exult, for an hour, in his light.
36 Ego autem habeo testimonium majus Joanne. Opera enim quæ dedit mihi Pater ut perficiam ea: ipsa opera, quæ ego facio, testimonium perhibent de me, quia Pater misit me:
But, I, have, as my witness, something greater than John’s; for, the works which the Father hath given me, that I should complete them, —the works themselves which I am doing, bear witness concerning me, that, the Father, hath sent me.
37 et qui misit me Pater, ipse testimonium perhibuit de me: neque vocem ejus umquam audistis, neque speciem ejus vidistis:
And so, the Father who sent me, he, hath borne witness concerning me; Neither, a sound of him, at any time, have ye heard, nor, a form of him, have ye seen;
38 et verbum ejus non habetis in vobis manens: quia quem misit ille, huic vos non creditis.
And, his word, ye have not, within you abiding—because, as touching him whom, he, sent, in him, ye, believe not.
39 Scrutamini Scripturas, quia vos putatis in ipsis vitam æternam habere: et illæ sunt quæ testimonium perhibent de me: (aiōnios g166)
Ye search the Scriptures, because, ye, think, by them, to have, life age-abiding; and, those [Scriptures], are they which bear witness concerning me: (aiōnios g166)
40 et non vultis venire ad me ut vitam habeatis.
And yet ye choose not to come unto me, that, life, ye may have.
41 Claritatem ab hominibus non accipio.
Glory from men, am I not receiving; —
42 Sed cognovi vos, quia dilectionem Dei non habetis in vobis.
But I have taken knowledge of you, that, the love of God, ye have not, in yourselves: —
43 Ego veni in nomine Patris mei, et non accipitis me; si alius venerit in nomine suo, illum accipietis.
I, have come, in the name of my Father, —and ye are not receiving me: If, another, shall come in his own name, him, ye will receive!
44 Quomodo vos potestis credere, qui gloriam ab invicem accipitis, et gloriam quæ a solo Deo est, non quæritis?
How can, ye, believe, —Glory from one another, receiving; and, the glory which is from the only God, are not seeking?
45 Nolite putare quia ego accusaturus sim vos apud Patrem: est qui accusat vos Moyses, in quo vos speratis.
Do not think that, I, will accuse you unto the Father: There, is, who accuseth you, even, Moses, —on whom, ye, have set your hope.
46 Si enim crederetis Moysi, crederetis forsitan et mihi: de me enim ille scripsit.
For, if ye had been believing, in Moses, ye would, in that case, have been believing, in me: for, concerning me, he wrote.
47 Si autem illius litteris non creditis, quomodo verbis meis credetis?
But, if, in his writings, ye are not believing, how, in my sayings, will ye believe?
