1 Some time later there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish festivals.
2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool with five covered colonnades, which in Hebrew is called Bethesda. Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, in Aramaic called Bethesda, which has five roofed colonnades. Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches. Now in Jerusalem, by the Sheep Gate, there is a pool which in Hebrew is called Bethesda, having five porticoes. Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades.
3 On these walkways lay a great number of the sick, the blind, the lame, and the paralyzed. In these lay a multitude of invalids—blind, lame, and paralyzed. In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water. In these porticoes lay a multitude of those who were sick, blind, limping, or paralyzed. Here a great number of disabled people used to lie—the blind, the lame, the paralyzed.
4 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 One man there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. One man was there who had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years. Now a man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years. One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lying there and realized that he had spent a long time in this condition, He asked him, “Do you want to get well? When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had already been there a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be healed?” 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? Jesus, upon seeing this man lying there and knowing that he had already been in that condition for a long time, said to him, “Do you want to get well?” When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?”
7 “Sir, the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am on my way, someone else goes in before me. The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, and while I am going another steps down before me.” 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. 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.” “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.”
8 Then Jesus told him, “Get up, pick up your mat, and walk. Jesus said to him, “Get up, take up your bed, and walk.” Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. Jesus said to him, “Get up, pick up your pallet and walk.” Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.”
9 Immediately the man was made well, and he picked up his mat and began to walk. Now this happened on the Sabbath day, And at once the man was healed, and he took up his bed and walked. Now that day was the Sabbath. And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath. Immediately the man became well, and picked up his pallet and began to walk. Now it was a Sabbath on that day. At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked. The day on which this took place was a Sabbath,
10 so the Jews said to the man who had been healed, “This is the Sabbath! It is unlawful for you to carry your mat. So the Jews said to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath, and it is not lawful for you to take up your bed.” The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed. So the Jews were saying to the man who was cured, “It is a Sabbath, and it is not permissible for you to carry your pallet.” and so the Jewish leaders said to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath; the law forbids you to carry your mat.”
11 But he answered, “The man who made me well told me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk. But he answered them, “The man who healed me, that man said to me, ‘Take up your bed, and walk.’” He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk. But he answered them, “He who made me well was the one who said to me, ‘Pick up your pallet and walk.’” But he replied, “The man who made me well said to me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’ “
12 “Who is this man who told you to pick it up and walk? they asked. They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Take up your bed and walk’?” Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk? They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Pick it up and walk’?” So they asked him, “Who is this fellow who told you to pick it up and walk?”
13 But the man who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away while the crowd was there. Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, as there was a crowd 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. But the man who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away while there was a crowd in that place. The man who was healed had no idea who it was, for Jesus had slipped away into the crowd that was there.
14 Afterward, Jesus found the man at the temple and said to him, “See, you have been made well. Stop sinning, or something worse may happen to you. Afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, “See, you are well! Sin no more, that nothing worse may happen to you.” 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. Afterward, Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, “Behold, you have become well; do not sin anymore, so that nothing worse happens to you.” Later Jesus found him at the temple and said to him, “See, you are well again. Stop sinning or something worse may happen to you.”
15 And the man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well. The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had healed him. The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole. The man went away, and informed the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well. The man went away and told the Jewish leaders that it was Jesus who had made him well.
16 Now because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jews began to persecute Him. And this was why the Jews were persecuting Jesus, because he was doing these things 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. For this reason the Jews were persecuting Jesus, because He was doing these things on a Sabbath. So, because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jewish leaders began to persecute him.
17 But Jesus answered them, “To this very day My Father is at His work, and I too am working. But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.” But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work. But He answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I Myself am working.” In his defense Jesus said to them, “My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I too am working.”
18 Because of this, the Jews tried all the harder to kill Him. Not only was He breaking the Sabbath, but He was even calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God. This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with 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. For this reason therefore the Jews were seeking all the more to kill Him, because He not only was breaking the Sabbath, but also was calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God. For this reason they tried all the more to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
19 So Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing by Himself, unless He sees the Father doing it. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does. So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, that the Son does likewise. 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. Therefore Jesus answered and was saying to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, these things the Son also does in the same way. Jesus gave them this answer: “Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does.
20 The Father loves the Son and shows Him all He does. And to your amazement, He will show Him even greater works than these. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself is doing. And greater works than these will he show him, so that you 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. For the Father loves the Son and shows Him all things that He Himself is doing; and the Father will show Him greater works than these, so that you will be amazed. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does. Yes, and he will show him even greater works than these, so that you will be amazed.
21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom He wishes. For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom he will. For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so the Son also gives life to whom He wishes. For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son gives life to whom he is pleased to give it.
22 Furthermore, the Father judges no one, but has assigned all judgment to the Son, For the Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son, For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son, Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son,
23 so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the
