5After this there was a festival of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.G3326G5023G2258G1859G2453G2532G2424G305G1519G2414 2Now in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate there is a pool, called in Hebrew Beth-zatha, which has five porticoes.G1161G2076G1722G2414G1909G4262G2861G3588G1951G1447G964G2192G4002G4745 3In these lay many invalids—blind, lame, and paralyzed.G1722G5025G2621G4183G4128G770G5185G5560G3584G1551G2796G5204 4Waiting for the stirring of the water; for an angel of the Lord went down at certain seasons into the pool, and stirred up the water; whoever stepped in first after the stirring of the water was made well from whatever disease that person had.(????)G1063G32G2597G2596G2540G1722G2861G2532G5015G5204G3767G4413G3326G5016G5204G1684G1096G5199G3739G1221G3553G2722 5One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years.G1161G5100G444G2258G1563G2192G1722G769G5144G3638G2094 6When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been there a long time, he said to him, "Do you want to be made well?"G2424G1492G5126G2621G2532G1097G3754G2192G2235G4183G5550G3004G846G2309G1096G5199 7The 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 making my way, someone else steps down ahead of me."G770G611G846G2962G2192G3756G444G3752G5204G5015G2443G906G3165G1519G2861G1161G1722G3739G1473G2064G243G2597G4253G1700 8Jesus said to him, "Stand up, take your mat and walk."G2424G3004G846G1453G142G4675G2895G2532G4043 9At once the man was made well, and he took up his mat and began to walk. Now that day was a sabbath.G2532G2112G444G1096G5199G2532G142G846G2895G2532G4043G1161G1722G1565G2250G2258G4521 10So the Jews said to the man who had been cured, "It is the sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your mat."G2453G3767G3004G2323G2076G4521G1832G3756G1832G4671G142G2895 11But he answered them, "The man who made me well said to me, 'Take up your mat and walk.'"G611G846G4160G3165G5199G1565G2036G3427G142G4675G2895G2532G4043 12They asked him, "Who is the man who said to you, 'Take it up and walk'?"G3767G2065G846G5101G444G2076G3588G2036G4671G142G4675G2895G2532G4043 13Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had disappeared in the crowd that was there.G1161G2390G1492G3756G5101G2076G1063G2424G1593G3793G5607G1722G5117 14Later Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, "See, you have been made well! Do not sin any more, so that nothing worse happens to you."G3326G5023G2424G2147G846G1722G2411G2532G2036G846G2396G1096G5199G264G3371G3363G5501G5100G1096G4671 15The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.G444G565G2532G312G2453G3754G2076G2424G3588G4160G846G5199 16Therefore the Jews started persecuting Jesus, because he was doing such things on the sabbath.G2532G1223G5124G1377G2453G1377G2424G2532G2212G615G846G3754G4160G5023G1722G4521 17But Jesus answered them, "My Father is still working, and I also am working."G1161G2424G611G846G3450G3962G2038G2193G737G2504G2038 18For this reason the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because he was not only breaking the sabbath, but was also calling God his own Father, thereby making himself equal to God.G1223G5124G3767G2453G2212G3123G615G846G3754G3089G3756G3440G3089G4521G235G3004G2532G2316G2398G3962G4160G1438G2470G2316 19Jesus said to them, "Very truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing on his own, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, the Son does likewise.G3767G611G2424G2532G2036G846G281G281G3004G5213G5207G1410G3756G4160G3762G575G1438G3362G5100G991G3962G4160G1063G3739G302G1565G4160G5023G2532G4160G5207G3668 20The Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself is doing; and he will show him greater works than these, so that you will be astonished.G1063G3962G5368G5207G2532G1166G846G3956G3739G846G4160G2532G1166G846G3187G2041G3187G5130G2443G5210G2296 21Indeed, just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whomever he wishes.G1063G5618G3962G1453G3498G2532G2227G2532G3779G5207G2227G3739G2309 22The Father judges no one but has given all judgment to the Son,G1063G3761G3962G2919G3762G235G1325G3956G2920G5207 23so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Anyone who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.G2443G3956G5091G5207G2531G5091G3962G5091G3361G5207G5091G3756G3962G3588G3992G846 24Very truly, I tell you, anyone who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and does not come under judgment, but has passed from death to life.G281G281G3004G5213G3754G191G3450G3056G2532G4100G3992G3165G2192G166G2222G2532G2064G3756G2064G1519G2920G235G3327G1537G2288G1519G2222 25"Very truly, I tell you, the hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.G281G281G3004G5213G3754G5610G2064G2532G3568G2076G3753G3498G191G5456G5207G2316G2532G191G2198 26For just as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself;G1063G5618G3962G2192G2222G1722G1438G2532G3779G1325G5207G2192G2222G1722G1438 27and he has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man.G2532G1325G846G1849G4160G2920G2532G3754G2076G5207G444 28Do not be astonished at this; for the hour is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voiceG2296G3361G5124G3754G5610G2064G1722G3739G3956G1722G3419G191G846G5456 29and will come out—those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.G2532G1607G4160G18G1519G386G2222G1161G4238G5337G1519G386G2920 30"I can do nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek to do not my own will but the will of him who sent me.G1473G1410G575G1683G4160G3756G3762G2531G191G2919G2532G1699G2920G2076G1342G3754G2212G3756G1699G2307G235G2307G3962G3992G3165 31"If I testify about myself, my testimony is not true.G1437G1473G3140G4012G1683G3450G3141G2076G3756G227 32There is another who testifies on my behalf, and I know that his testimony to me is true.G2076G243G3140G4012G1700G2532G1492G3754G3141G3739G3140G4012G1700G2076G227 33You sent messengers to John, and he testified to the truth.G5210G649G4314G2491G2532G3140G225 34Not that I accept such human testimony, but I say these things so that you may be saved.G1161G1473G2983G3756G3141G3844G444G235G5023G3004G2443G5210G4982 35He was a burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.G1565G2258G2545G2532G5316G3088G1161G5210G2309G4314G5610G21G1722G846G5457 36But I have a testimony greater than John's. The works that the Father has given me to complete, the very works that I am doing, testify on my behalf that the Father has sent me.G1161G1473G2192G3187G3141G2491G1063G2041G3739G3962G1325G3427G2443G5048G846G846G2041G3739G1473G4160G3140G4012G1700G3754G3962G649G3165 37And the Father who sent me has himself testified on my behalf. You have never heard his voice or seen his form,G2532G3962G846G3992G3165G3140G4012G1700G191G3777G191G846G5456G4455G3777G3708G846G1491 38and you do not have his word abiding in you, because you do not believe him whom he has sent.G2532G2192G3756G846G3056G3306G1722G5213G3754G3739G1565G649G5129G5210G4100G3756 39"You search the scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that testify on my behalf.G2045G1124G3754G1722G846G5210G1380G2192G166G2222G2532G1565G1526G3140G4012G1700 40Yet you refuse to come to me to have life.G2532G2309G3756G2064G4314G3165G2443G2192G2222 41I do not accept glory from human beings.G2983G3756G1391G3844G444 42But I know that you do not have the love of God in you.G235G1097G5209G3754G2192G3756G26G2316G1722G1438 43I have come in my Father's name, and you do not accept me; if another comes in his own name, you will accept him.G1473G2064G1722G3450G3962G3686G2532G2983G3165G3756G1437G243G2064G1722G2398G3686G1565G2983 44How can you believe when you accept glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the one who alone is God?G4459G1410G5210G4100G2983G1391G3844G240G2532G2212G3756G1391G3844G2316G3441 45Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; your accuser is Moses, on whom you have set your hope.G1380G3361G1380G3754G1473G2723G5216G4314G3962G2076G2723G5216G3475G1519G3739G5210G1679 46If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me.G1063G1487G4100G3475G4100G302G1698G1063G1565G1125G4012G1700 47But if you do not believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?"G1161G1487G4100G3756G1565G1121G4459G4100G1699G4487
