John 5

  1. After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 🔗
  2. Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches. 🔗
  3. In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water. 🔗
  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. And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years. 🔗
  6. 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? 🔗
  7. 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. 🔗
  8. Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. 🔗
  9. And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath. 🔗
  10. The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed. 🔗
  11. He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk. 🔗
  12. Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk? 🔗
  13. And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place. 🔗
  14. 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. 🔗
  15. The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole. 🔗
  16. And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day. 🔗
  17. But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work. 🔗
  18. 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. 🔗
  19. 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. 🔗
  20. 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. 🔗
  21. For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. 🔗
  22. For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: 🔗
  23. That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him. 🔗
  24. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. 🔗
  25. Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. 🔗
  26. For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 🔗
  27. And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man. 🔗
  28. Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 🔗
  29. And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. 🔗
  30. I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me. 🔗
  31. If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true. 🔗
  32. There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true. 🔗
  33. Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth. 🔗
  34. But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved. 🔗
  35. He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light. 🔗
  36. But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me. 🔗
  37. And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. 🔗
  38. And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not. 🔗
  39. Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 🔗
  40. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. 🔗
  41. I receive not honour from men. 🔗
  42. But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you. 🔗
  43. I am come in my Father2019s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. 🔗
  44. How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only? 🔗
  45. Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust. 🔗
  46. For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. 🔗
  47. But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words? 🔗
