John 5:5-9

5There was a certain man there who had been ill for thirty-eight years.

6When Jesus noticed him lying there [helpless], knowing that he had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, “Do you want to get well?”

7The invalid answered, “Sir, I have no one to put me in the pool when the water is stirred up, and while I am coming [to get into it myself], someone else steps down ahead of me.”

8Jesus said to him, “Get up; pick up your pallet and walk.”

9Immediately the man was healed and recovered his strength, and picked up his pallet and walked. Now that day was the Sabbath.
