John 5 : 1 - 14
Chapter 5
1 | After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. |
2 | Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches. |
3 | In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water. |
4 | For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and stirred up the water; then whoever stepped in first, after the stirring of the water, was made well of whatever disease he had. |
5 | Now a certain man was there who had an infirmity thirty-eight years. |
6 | When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, "Do you want to be made well?" |
7 | The sick man answered Him, "Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me." |
8 | Jesus said to him, "Rise, take up your bed and walk." |
9 | And immediately the man was made well, took up his bed, and walked. And that day was the Sabbath. |
10 | The Jews therefore said to him who was cured, "It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed." |
11 | He answered them, "He who made me well said to me, "Take up your bed and walk."' |
12 | Then they asked him, "Who is the Man who said to you, "Take up your bed and walk'?" |
13 | But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a multitude being in that place. |
14 | Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, "See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you." |
