2 Now δὲ de G1161 there is G1510 in Jerusalem Ἱεροσολύμοις Hi'erosolumois G2414 , at the sheepgate, a pool κολυμβήθρα, kolumbēthra G2861 , which is G1510 called in Hebrew Ἑβραϊστὶ Hebraisti G1447 , Bethesda , having five πέντε pente G4002 porches. 3 In these lay a multitude πλῆθος plēthos G4128 of sick G770 , blind τυφλῶν, tuphlōn G5185 , lame χωλῶν, chōlōn G5560 , withered G3584 , [awaiting the moving of the water. 4 For an angel descended at a certain season in the pool and troubled the water. Whoever therefore first went in after the troubling of the water became well, whatever disease he laboured under.] 6 Jesus Ἰησοῦς Iēsous G2424 seeing G3708 this [ man G3778 ] lying [ there ], and knowing G1097 that he was [ in that state] now a great G4183 length of time χρόνον chronon G5550 , says λέγει legei G3004 to him , Wouldest thou become γενέσθαι; genesthai G1096 well ? 7 The infirm [ man ἄνθρωπον anthrōpon G444 ] answered ἀπεκρίθη apekrithē G611 him , Sir κύριε, kurie G2962 , I have not a man G444 , in order G2443 , when ὅταν hotan G3752 the water ὕδωρ hudōr G5204 has been troubled G5015 , to cast G906 me into the pool κολυμβήθραν· kolumbēthran G2861 ; but while I am coming G2064 another descends G2597 before me . 8 Jesus Ἰησοῦς· Iēsous G2424 says λέγει legei G3004 to him , Arise ἔγειρε, egeire G1453 , take ἆρον aron G142 up thy couch and walk περιπάτει. peripatei G4043 . 9 And immediately εὐθέως eutheōs G2112 the man ἄνθρωπος anthrōpos G444 became G1096 well , and took G142 up his couch and walked περιεπάτει· periepatei G4043 : and on that day ἡμέρᾳ. hēmera G2250 was G1510 sabbath σάββατον sabbaton G4521 . 10 The Jews Ἰουδαῖοι Ioudaioi G2453 therefore οὖν oun G3767 said ἔλεγον elegon G3004 to the healed τεθεραπευμένῳ· tetherapeumenō G2323 [man], It is G1510 sabbath σάββατόν sabbaton G4521 , it is G1510 not permitted thee to take ἆραι arai G142 up thy couch. 11 He answered ἀπεκρίθη apekrithē G611 them , He that made G4160 me well , he said G3004 to me , Take ἆρον aron G142 up thy couch and walk περιπάτει. peripatei G4043 . 14 After these things ταῦτα tauta G3778 Jesus Ἰησοῦς Iēsous G2424 finds εὑρίσκει heuriskei G2147 him in the temple , and said G3004 to him , Behold ἴδε ide G2396 , thou art become γέγονας· gegonas G1096 well : sin ἁμάρτανε hamartane G264 no more μηκέτι mēketi G3371 , that something τι ti G5100 worse do not happen γένηται. genētai G1096 to thee. 16 And for this the Jews Ἰουδαῖοι Ioudaioi G2453 persecuted G1377 Jesus Ἰησοῦν Iēsoun G2424 [ and sought to kill him ], because he had done these things G3778 on sabbath σαββάτῳ.¶ sabbatō G4521 . 17 But Jesus answered ἀπεκρίνατο apekrinato G611 them , My Father πατήρ patēr G3962 worketh hitherto and I work G2038 . 19 Jesus Ἰησοῦς Iēsous G2424 therefore οὖν oun G3767 answered ἀπεκρίνατο apekrinato G611 and said ἔλεγεν elegen G3004 to them , Verily, verily, I say λέγω legō G3004 to you , The Son υἱὸς huios G5207 can do nothing of himself save whatever he sees βλέπῃ blepē G991 the Father πατέρα patera G3962 doing : for whatever things ταῦτα tauta G3778 he does , these things G3778 also G2532 the Son υἱὸς huios G5207 does in like manner . 23 that all may honour the Son υἱὸν huion G5207 , even as they honour the Father πατέρα. patera G3962 . He who honours not the Son υἱὸν huion G5207 , honours not the Father πατέρα patera G3962 who has sent G3992 him . 24 Verily, verily, I say λέγω legō G3004 unto you , that he that hears ἀκούων akouōn G191 my word λόγον logon G3056 , and believes G4100 him that has sent G3992 me , has life ζωὴν zōēn G2222 eternal αἰώνιον aiōnion G166 , and does not come G2064 into judgment κρίσιν krisin G2920 , but is passed out of death θανάτου thanatou G2288 into life ζωήν.¶ zōēn G2222 . 28 Wonder G2296 not at this , for an hour ὥρα hōra G5610 is coming G2064 in which all who are in the tombs μνημείοις mnēmeiois G3419 shall hear ἀκούσουσιν akousousin G191 his voice φωνῆς phōnēs G5456 , 29 and shall go G1607 forth ; those that have practised good ἀγαθὰ agatha G18 , to resurrection ἀνάστασιν anastasin G386 of life ζωῆς, zōēs G2222 , and those that have done evil φαῦλα phaula G5337 , to resurrection ἀνάστασιν anastasin G386 of judgment κρίσεως. kriseōs G2920 . 30 I cannot do anything of myself ; as I hear ἀκούω akouō G191 , I judge κρίνω, krinō G2919 , and my judgment κρίσις krisis G2920 is G1510 righteous G1342 , because I do not seek ζητῶ zētō G2212 my will , but the will of him that has sent G3992 me . 32 It is G1510 another who bears witness μαρτυρῶν marturōn G3140 concerning περὶ peri G4012 me , and I know that the witness μαρτυρεῖ marturei G3140 which he bears concerning περὶ peri G4012 me is G1510 true ἀληθής alēthēs G227 . 33 Ye have sent G649 unto John Ἰωάννην, Iōannēn G2491 , and he has borne witness μεμαρτύρηκεν memarturēken G3140 to the truth ἀληθείᾳ· alētheia G225 . 35 He was G1510 the burning καιόμενος kaiomenos G2545 and shining φαίνων, phainōn G5316 lamp λύχνος luchnos G3088 , and ye were G1510 willing ἠθελήσατε ēthelēsate G2309 for a season to rejoice ἀγαλλιαθῆναι agalliathēnai G21 in his light φωτὶ phōti G5457 . 36 But I have the witness μαρτυρεῖ marturei G3140 [ that is ] greater G3173 than [ that ] of John Ἰωάννου· Iōannou G2491 ; for the works ἔργα erga G2041 which the Father πατὴρ patēr G3962 has given G1325 me that I should complete them , the works ἔργα erga G2041 themselves which I do , bear witness G3140 concerning περὶ peri G4012 me that the Father πατήρ patēr G3962 has sent G649 me . 37 And the Father πατὴρ patēr G3962 who has sent G3992 me himself has borne witness μεμαρτύρηκεν memarturēken G3140 concerning περὶ peri G4012 me . Ye have neither heard G191 his voice φωνὴν phōnēn G5456 at any time πώποτε pōpote G4455 , nor have seen G3708 his shape, 38 and ye have not his word λόγον logon G3056 abiding G3306 in you ; for whom he hath sent G649 , him ye do not believe πιστεύετε.¶ pisteuete G4100 . 40 and ye will θέλετε thelete G2309 not come ἐλθεῖν elthein G2064 to me that ye might have life ζωὴν zōēn G2222 . 42 but I know G1097 you , that ye have not the love ἀγάπην agapēn G26 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 in you . 43 I am come ἐλήλυθα elēlutha G2064 in my Father's name ὀνόματι onomati G3686 , and ye receive λαμβάνετέ lambanete G2983 me not ; if another come ἔλθῃ elthē G2064 in his own ἰδίῳ, idiō G2398 name ὀνόματι onomati G3686 , him ye will receive λήμψεσθε.¶ lēmpsesthe G2983 . 47 But if ye do not believe πιστεύετε, pisteuete G4100 his writings , how πῶς pōs G4459 shall ye believe πιστεύσετε;¶ pisteusete G4100 my words ? ← John 4 John 6 → Darby Bible — 1889 — Public Domain
