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 Father's 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
