| 1 After these things was a feast of the Jews, and went up the Jesus to Jerusalem. |
|
| |
|
| 2 Is now in the Jerusalem, by the sheep-gate, a swimming bath, that being called in Hebrew Bethesda, five porches having. |
|
| 3 In these were lying a multitude great of those sick, blind, blame, withered waiting the of the water moving. |
|
| 4 A messenger for at a season went down in the swimming-bath, and agitated the water; he then first stepping in after the agitation of the water, sound became, who indeed was held by disease. |
|
| 5 Was and a certain man there, thirty and eight years being in the feeble health. |
|
| 6 This seeing the Jesus lying, and knowing that long already time he had been, he says to him: Do thou wish sound to become?
|
|
| 7 Answered him he sick being: O sir, a man not I have, that when may be agitated the water, he may put me into the swimming-bath; in which but am coming I, another before me goes down. |
|
| 8 Says to him the Jesus: Rise, take up the bed of thee, and walk.
|
|
| 9 And immediately became sound the man, and took up the bed of himself, and walked. It was and a sabbath in that the day. |
|
| 10 Said then the Jews to the having been healed: A sabbath it is; not it is lawful for thee to carry the bed. |
|
| 11 He answered them: He having made a sound, he to me said: Take up the bed of thee, and walk. |
|
| 12 They asked then him: Who is the man, he saying to thee: Take up the bed of thee, and walk? |
|
| 13 He but having been cured not knew who it is; the for Jesus slipped out, a crowd being in the place. |
|
| 14 After these finds him the Jesus in the temple, and said to him: See, sound thou hast become; no longer do thou sin, that so worse to thee anything may happen.
|
|
| 15 Went away the man, and told to the Jews, that Jesus it is, he having made him sound. |
|
| 16 And through this persecuted the Jesus the Jews, because these he did in a sabbath. |
|
| 17 The and Jesus answered them: The father of me till now works, and I work.
|
|
| 18 Through this therefore more sought him the Jews to kill, because not only he was breaking the sabbath, but also a Father his own said the God, equal himself making to the God. |
|
| |
|
| 19 Answered then the Jesus and said to them: Indeed indeed I say to you, not is able the son to do of himself nothing, if not anything he may see the Father doing; what for ever he may do, these also the son in like manner does.
|
|
| 20 The for Father loves the son, and all shows to him, what he does; and greater of these shows to him works, so that you may wonder.
|
|
| 21 As for the Father raises the dead ones and makes alive; thus also the son, whom he will, makes alive.
|
|
| 22 Not even for the Father judges any one; but the judgment all has given to the son;
|
|
| 23 so that all may honor the son, even as they honor the Father. He not honoring the son, not honors the Father, that having sent him.
|
|
| 24 Indeed indeed I say to you, that he the word of me hearing, and believing, the having sent me has life age-lasting, and into judgment not comes, but has passed out of the death into the life.
|
|
| 25 Indeed indeed I say to you, that comes an hour, and now is, when the dead ones shall hear the voice of the son of the God; and those having heard will live.

And now is – Omitted by Sinaitic ms. - R1077 footnote. Other manuscripts contain this clause. If this clause is legitimate, there is still a simple explanation, for our Lord elsewhere said "let the dead bury their dead." As all are under the death sentence from father Adam, they are, in a sense, already dead. Thus some of Adam's children did hear when Jesus spoke these words and they did choose life. |
| 26 As for the Father has life in himself; so he gave also the son life to have in himself.
|
|
| 27 And authority he gave to him also judgment to execute, because a son of man he is.
|
|
| 28 Not wonder you this; because comes an hour, in which all those in the tombs, shall hear the voice of him,
|
|
| 29 and shall come forth, those the good things having done, to a resurrection of life; those and the evil things having done, to a resurrection of judgment.
|
|
| 30 Not am able I to do of myself nothing. Even as I hear, I judge, and the judgment the mine just is; that not I seek the will the mine, but the will of the sending me.
|
|
| 31 If I testify concerning myself, the testimony of me out not is true.
|
|
| 32 Another is he testifying concerning me; and I know, that rue is the testimony, which he testifies concerning me.
|
|
| 33 You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.
|
|
| 34 I but not from a man the testimony receive; but these things I say, that you may be saved.
|
|
| 35 He was the lamp the burning and shinning; you and were willing to rejoice for an hour in the light of him.
|
|
| 36 I but have the testimony greater of the John; the for works, which gave to me the Father, that I might finish them, these the works, which I do, testifies concerning me, because the Father me has sent.
|
|
| 37 And he having sent me Father himself has testified concerning me. Neither a voice of him have you heard at any time, nor form of him have you seen.
|
|
| 38 And the word of him not you have abiding in you; because whom sent he, this you not believe.
|
|
| 39 You search the writings, because you think in them life age-lasting to have; and they are those testifying concerning me;
|
|
| 40 and not you are willing to come to me, so that life you may have.
|
|
| 41 Glory from men not I receive;
|
|
| 42 but I have known you, that the love of the God not you have in yourselves.
|
|
| 43 I have come in the name of the Father of me, and not you receive me; if another should come in the name the own, him you will receive.
|
|
| 44 How are able you to believe, glory from one another receiving, and the glory that from the only God not you seek?
|
|
| 45 Not think you, that I will accuse you to the Father; is he accusing you, Moses, into whom you have hoped.
|
|
| 46 If for you believe Moses, you would believe me; concerning for me he wrote.
|
|
| 47 If but the of him writings not you believe, how the my words will you believe.
