John 5

5
A Paralytic Is Healed
1 After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 2Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool called in Aramaic Bethzatha,#The majority of later manuscripts read “Bethesda,” while other early manuscripts read “Bethsaida” which has five porticoes. 3In these were lying a large number of those who were sick, blind, lame, paralyzed.#The majority of later manuscripts add the following words: “waiting for the moving of the water. 4 For an angel of the Lord from time to time went down in the pool and stirred up the water. So the one who went in first after the stirring of the water was healed of whatever disease he suffered.” 5And a certain man was there who had been thirty-eight years in his sickness. 6Jesus, when he#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“saw”) which is understood as temporal saw this one lying there and knew that he had been sick#*The phrase “been sick” is not in the Greek text, but is supplied from the context a long time already, said to him, “Do you want to become well?” 7The one who was sick answered him, “Sir, I do not have anyone that, whenever the water is stirred up, could put me into the pool. But while#Literally “during which time” I am coming, another goes down before me.” 8Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk!” 9And immediately the man became well and picked up his mat and began to walk.#*The imperfect tense has been translated as ingressive here (“began to walk”) (Now it was the Sabbath on that day.)
10So the Jews were saying to the one who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath, and it is not permitted for you to pick up the mat!”#Some manuscripts have “your mat” 11But he answered them, “The one who made me well—that one said to me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk!’ ” 12So they asked him,#Some manuscripts have “They asked him” “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Pick up your mat#*In Greek the direct object (“your mat”) is not in the Greek text but the repetition is implied from the previous verse and walk?’ ” 13But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn while#*Here “while” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“was”) a crowd was in the place.
Equal with God
14After these things Jesus found him at the temple and said to him, “Look, you have become well! Sin no longer, lest something worse happen to you.” 15The man went and reported to the Jews that Jesus was the one who made him well. 16And on account of this the Jews began to persecute#*The imperfect tense has been translated as ingressive here (“began to persecute”) Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath. 17But he answered#Some manuscripts have “Jesus answered” them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.” 18So on account of this the Jews were seeking even more to kill him, because he not only was breaking the Sabbath, but also was calling God his own Father, thus#*Here “thus” is supplied as a component of the participle (“making”) which is understood as result making himself equal with God.
The Authority of the Son
19So Jesus answered and said to them, “Truly, truly I say to you, the Son can do nothing from himself except what he sees the Father doing. For whatever that one does, these things also the Son does likewise. 20For the Father loves the Son and shows him everything that he himself is doing. And greater works than these he will show him, so that you will be astonished. 21For just as the Father raises the dead and makes them#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation alive, thus also the Son makes alive whomever he wishes. 22For the Father does not judge anyone, but he has given all judgment to the Son, 23in order that all people#*The word “people” is not in the Greek text but is implied will honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. The one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him. 24Truly, truly I say to you that the one who hears my word and who believes the one who sent me has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.
25“Truly, truly I say to you, that an hour is coming—and now is here—when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and the ones who hear will live. 26For just as the Father has life in himself, thus also he has granted to the Son to have life in himself. 27And he has granted him authority to carry out judgment, because he is the Son of Man.
28“Do not be astonished at this, because an hour is coming in which all those in the tombs will hear his voice 29and they will come out—those who have done good things to a resurrection of life, but those who have practiced evil things to a resurrection of judgment. 30I am able to do nothing from myself. Just as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek my own will, but the will of the one who sent me.
Further Testimony About the Son
31“If I testify about myself, my testimony is not true. 32There is another who testifies about me, and I know that the testimony which he testifies about me is true. 33You have sent to John and he has testified to the truth. 34(And I do not receive testimony from people, but I say these things in order that you may be saved.) 35That one was the lamp which was burning and shining, and you wanted to rejoice for an hour in his light.
36“But I have a testimony greater than John’s, for the works which the Father has given to me that I should complete them—the very works which I am doing—these testify about me, that the Father has sent me. 37And the Father who sent me, that one has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time nor seen his form. 38And you do not have his word residing in yourselves, because the one whom that one sent, in this one you do not believe. 39You search#Or “Search” (an imperative) the scriptures because you think that you have eternal life in them, and it is these that testify about me. 40And you are not willing to come to me so that you may have life.
41“I do not accept glory#Or “honor” from people, 42but I know you, that you do not have the love of God in yourselves. 43I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not accept me. If another should come in his own name, you would accept that one! 44How are you able to believe, if you#*Here “if” is supplied as a component of the participle (“accept”) which is understood as conditional accept glory from one another, and do not seek the glory which is from the only God? 45Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father! The one who accuses you is Moses, in whom you have put your hope! 46For if you had believed Moses, you would believe me, for that one wrote about me. 47But if you do not believe that one’s writings, how will you believe my words?”
