John 5:6
King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology
CHAPTER 5. |
||
After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. |
||
Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches. |
||
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. |
||
And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years. |
||
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? |
||
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. |
||
Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. |
||
And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath. |
||
¶The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed. |
||
He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk. |
||
Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk? |
||
And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place. |
||
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. |
||
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole. |
||
And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day. |
||
¶But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work. |
||
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. |
||
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. |
||
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. |
