Time. One year.
| John. | |
| CH. V. 1-47. | |
| After this there was a feast of the
Jews: and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. | |
| 2 Now there is at Jerusalem, by
the sheep market, a pool, which is
called in the Hebrew tongue, Bethesda,[132]
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 things 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,
hat 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 has 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 into 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[133]
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? | |

| At that time Jesus went on the sabbath-day through the corn, and his
disciples were a hungered, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to
eat.[134] | 23 And it came to pass, that he
went through the corn-fields on the sabbath-day; and his disciples began,
as they went, to pluck the ears of Corn. |
| 2 But when the Pharisees saw it,
they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples
do that which is not lawful to
do upon the sabbath-day.[135] | 24 And the Pharisees said unto him,
Behold, why do they on the sabbath-day
that which is not lawful? |
| 3 But he said unto them, Have ye
not read what David did when he was
a hungered, and they that were with him; | 25 And he said unto them, Have
ye never read what David did,[136] when
he had need, and was a hungered, he
and they that were with him? |
| 4 How he entered into the house of
God, and did eat the shew-bread,
which was not lawful for him to eat,
neither for them which were with him,
but only for the priests? | 26 How he went into the house of
God, in the days of Abiathar[137] the high
priest, and did eat the shew-bread,
which is not lawful to eat, but for the
priests, and gave also to them which
were with him? |
| 5 Or have ye not read in the law
how that on the sabbath-days the
priests in the temple profane the sabbath,
and are blameless?[138] | |
| 6 But I say unto you, that in this
place is one greater than the temple. | |
| 7 But if ye had known what this
meaneth,[139] I will have mercy, and not
sacrifice, ye would not have condemned
the guiltless. | 27 And he said unto them, The
sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: |
| 8 For the Son of man is Lord even
of the sabbath-day. | 28 Therefore, the Son of man is
Lord also of the sabbath. |
