John 5:16-18

16For thisG3778 reasonG1223 1the JewsG2453 were persecutingG1377 JesusG2424, becauseG3754 He was doingG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778 on a SabbathG4521. 17But He answeredG611 them, “My FatherG3962 2is workingG2038 untilG2193 nowG737, and I MyselfG1473 am workingG2038.” 18For thisG3778 reasonG1223 thereforeG3767 3the JewsG2453 4were seekingG2212 all the moreG3123 to killG615 Him, becauseG3754 He not onlyG3440 was breakingG3089 the SabbathG4521, but alsoG2532 was callingG3004 GodG2316 His ownG2398 FatherG3962, 5makingG4160 HimselfG1438 equalG2470 with GodG2316.
