John Chapter 5

5^:1After these-things was (a) feast of-the Jews, and Jesus went-up to Jerusalem. ² And there-is in [the] Jerusalem at the sheep (gate a) pool [the] called in-Hebrew ‘Bethesda,’ having five porches. ³ In these (a) crowd of-[the] sick-ones was-lying—blind, lame, paralyzed. [ ⁴ ] ⁵ (A)-certain man was there for-thirty and eight years, having in the weakness of-him. ⁶ [The] Jesus, seeing this-one lying and knowing that he was-having already for-(a)-long time, says to-him, “Do-you-want to-become well?”

⁷ The infirm-one answered him, “Sir, I-do┘not└have (a) person in-order-that, when the water is stirred, he-can-put me in the pool. And in which (time) I am-coming, another (person) comes down ahead-of me.”

⁸ [The] Jesus says to-him, “Get-up, pick-up the bedroll of-you and walk.^”

⁹ And immediately the man became healthy and picked-up the bedroll of-him and began-to-walk.

And it-was (the) Sabbath on that [the] day. ¹⁰ Then the Jews said to-the healed-one, “It-is Sabbath, and it-is┘not└lawful for-you to-carry the bedroll of-you.”

¹¹ And the (man) answered them, “The-one having-made┘me└healthy—that-one said to me, ‘Pick-up the bedroll of-you and walk.’”

¹² They-asked him, “Who is the man the-one having-said to-you, ‘Pick-up and walk’?” ¹³ And the-one having-been-healed did┘not└know who he-was, for [the] Jesus had-left, (a) crowd being in-the-place. ¹⁴ After these-things [the] Jesus finds him in the temple and said to-him, “Behold, you-have-become healthy; no-longer sin, lest² something worse become to-you.” ¹⁵ The man went-away and reported to-the Jews that Jesus was the-One having-made┘him└well. ¹⁶ And on-account-of this, the Jews began-to-persecute [the] Jesus, because he-was-doing these-things on (the) Sabbath. ¹⁷ But [the] Jesus answered them, “The Father of-me is-working up-to now and-I am-working.” ¹⁸ Then on-account-of this, the Jews were-seeking more to-kill him because not only was-he-breaking the Sabbath, but also he-was-calling [the] God his ‘Father,’ making himself equal to-[the] God.

¹⁹ Then [the] Jesus answered and said to-them,

“Truly, truly, I-tell you, the Son is┘not└able of himself to-do something unless² he-sees the Father doing something; for whatever² that-One does—these-things also the Son likewise does. ²⁰ For the Father loves the Son and shows him all-things that he does, and he-will-show him greater works than-these in-order-that you may-marvel. ²¹ For as the Father raises the dead and makes-alive, so also the Son makes-alive whom he-wants-to. ²² For neither does┘the Father└judge anybody, but he-has-given all [the] judgment to-the Son, ²³ in-order-that all may-honor the Son as they-honor the Father. The-one not honoring the Son does┘not└honor the Father, the-One having-sent him. ²⁴ Truly, truly, I-tell you that the-one hearing the word of-me and believing the-One having-sent me has eternal life and does┘not└come into condemnation, but has-crossed-over from [the] death into [the] life. ²⁵ Truly, truly, I-tell you that (the) hour is-coming and now is when the dead will-hear the voice of the Son of-[the] God, the remaining and the-ones having-heard will-come-to-life. ²⁶ For as the Father has life in himself, so also he-gave to-the Son to-have life in himself. ²⁷ And he-gave him authority to-make judgment, because he-is (a) Son of-Man. ²⁸ Do┘ not└marvel-at this—that (the) hour is-coming in which all the-ones in the grave will hear the voice of-him, ²⁹ and the-ones having-done [the] good-things will-come-out into (the) resurrection of-life, and the-ones having-done [the] foul-things into (the) resurrection of-condemnation. ³⁰ I am┘not└able to-do anything from myself; even-as I-hear, I judge; and [the] my [the] judgment is just, because I-do┘not└seek [the] my [the] will, but the will of-the-One having-sent me.

                        ³¹ “If I testify about myself, the testimony of-me is not valid. ³² Another is the-one testifying about me, and I-know that the testimony that he-testifies about me is true. ³³ You have-sent to John, and he-has-testified to-the truth. ³⁴ But I do┘not└receive [the] testimony from man, but I-say these-things in-order-that you may-be-saved. ³⁵ That-one was the/a lamp [the] burning and shining, and you were-willing to-be-happy for (a) time in the light of-him. ³⁶ But I have [the] testimony greater than [the] John, for the works that the Father has-given me in-order-that I-might-carry┘them└out—the works themselves that I-do testify about me that the Father has-sent me. ³⁷ And the having-sent me Father—that-one has-testified about me. You-have┘neither└heard (the) voice of-him at-any-time, nor have-you-seen (the) visible-form of-him. ³⁸ And the word of-him you-do┘not└have staying in you, because whom that-One sent—this-One you do┘not└believe. ³⁹ You-search the scriptures because you think in them to-have eternal life; and those are the-ones testifying about me. ⁴⁰ And you-do┘not└want to-come to me in-order-that you-may-find life.

                        ⁴¹ “I-do┘not└receive glory from men, ⁴² but I-have-known you that you-do┘not└have the love of-[the] God in yourselves. ⁴³ I have-come in the name of-the Father of-me, and you-do┘not└receive me; if another comes in [the] his-own [the] name, that-one you-will-receive. ⁴⁴ How are┘you└able to-believe, receiving glory from one-another, and do┘not└seek the glory [the] from the only God? ⁴⁵ Do┘not└suppose that I will-accuse you to the Father; Moses is the-one accusing you, in whom you have-hoped. ⁴⁶ If you believed Moses, you would-be-believing me, because that-one wrote about me. ⁴⁷ And if you do┘not└believe the writings of-that-one, how will-you-believe [the] my words?”
