CHAPTER -5
CHAPTER 5
5:1
After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to
Jerusalem.
5:2
Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is
called in the Hebrew tongue
Bethesda, having five porches.
5:3
In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt,
withered, waiting for the
moving of the water.
5:4
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.
5:5
And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight
years.
5:6
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?
5:7
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.
5:8
Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
5:9
And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and
walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
5:10
The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath
day: it is not lawful for
thee to carry thy bed.
5:11
He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take
up thy bed, and walk.
5:12
Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up
thy bed, and walk?
5:13
And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed
himself away,
a multitude being in that place.
5:14
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.
5:15
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had
made him whole.
5:16
And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him,
because he had
done these things on the sabbath day.
5:17
But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
5:18
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.
5:19
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.
5:20
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.
5:21
For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so
the Son quickeneth whom he will.
5:22
For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto
the Son:
5:23
That all men should honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He
that honoreth not the
Son honoreth not the Father which hath sent him.
5:24
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.
5:25
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.
5:26
For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son
to have life in himself;
5:27
And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is
the Son of man.
5:28
Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that
are in the graves shall hear his voice,
5:29
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.
5:30
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.
5:31
If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
5:32
There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the
witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
5:33
Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
5:34
But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that
ye might be saved.
5:35
He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a
season to rejoice in his light.
5:36
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.
5:37
And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath born witness of me.
Ye have neither heard
his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
5:38
And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him
ye believe not.
5:39
Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life:
and they are they which testify of me.
5:40
And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
5:41
I receive not honor from men.
5:42
But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
5:43
I am come in my Father�s name, and ye receive me not: if another
shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
5:44
How can ye believe, which receive honor one of another, and seek not
the honor that cometh from God only?
5:45
Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that
accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
5:46
For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me; for he wrote
of me.
5:47
But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?.
