John 5:17-29
17But He answeredG611 them, “My FatherG3962 1is workingG2038 untilG2193 nowG737, and I MyselfG1473 am workingG2038.” 18For thisG3778 reasonG1223 thereforeG3767 2the JewsG2453 3were seekingG2212 all the moreG3123 to killG615 Him, becauseG3754 He not onlyG3440 was breakingG3089 the SabbathG4521, but alsoG2532 was callingG3004 GodG2316 His ownG2398 FatherG3962, 4makingG4160 HimselfG1438 equalG2470 with GodG2316.
19ThereforeG3767 JesusG2424 answeredG611 and was sayingG3004 to them, “TrulyG281, trulyG281, I sayG3004 to you, 5the SonG5207 canG1410 doG4160 nothingG3756G3762 of HimselfG1438, unlessG302G3361 it is somethingG5100 He seesG991 the FatherG3962 doingG4160; for whateverG3739G302 6the FatherG3962 doesG4160, theseG3778 thingsG3778 the SonG5207 alsoG2532 doesG4160 in the sameG3668 wayG3668. 207For the FatherG3962 lovesG5368 the SonG5207 and showsG1166 Him allG3956 thingsG3956 that He HimselfG846 is doingG4160; and the Father will showG1166 Him 8greaterG3173 worksG2041 than theseG3778, soG2443 thatG2443 you will beG2296 amazedG2296. 21For justG5618 as the FatherG3962 raisesG1453 the deadG3498 and 9givesG2227 them lifeG2227, soG3779 10the SonG5207 alsoG2532 givesG2227 lifeG2227 toG2227 whomG3739 He wishesG2309. 22For not evenG3761 the FatherG3962 judgesG2919 anyoneG3762, but 11He has givenG1325 allG3956 judgmentG2920 to the SonG5207, 23soG2443 thatG2443 allG3956 will honorG5091 the SonG5207 justG2531 asG2531 they honorG5091 the FatherG3962. 12The one who does not honorG5091 the SonG5207 does not honorG5091 the FatherG3962 who sentG3992 Him.
24“TrulyG281, trulyG281, I sayG3004 to you, the one who hearsG191 My wordG3056, and 13believesG4100 Him who sentG3992 Me, hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222, and 14does not comeG2064 into judgmentG2920, but has 15passedG3327 out of deathG2288 into lifeG2222. 25TrulyG281, trulyG281, I sayG3004 to you, 1617a timeG5610 is comingG2064 and 18even nowG3568 has arrivedG1510, whenG3753 19the deadG3498 will hearG191 the voiceG5456 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, and thoseG3588 who 20hearG191 will liveG2198. 26For justG5618 as the FatherG3962 hasG2192 lifeG2222 in HimselfG1438, soG3779 He 21gaveG1325 to the SonG5207 alsoG2532 to haveG2192 lifeG2222 in HimselfG1438; 27and He gaveG1325 Him authorityG1849 to 22executeG4160 judgmentG2920, becauseG3754 He is 23the SonG5207 of ManG444. 28Do not beG2296 amazedG2296 at thisG3778; for 2425a timeG5610 is comingG2064 whenG1722G3739 26allG3956 whoG3588 are in the tombsG3419 will hearG191 His voiceG5456, 29and will comeG1607 outG1607: 27thoseG3588 who didG4160 the goodG18 deeds to a resurrectionG386 of lifeG2222, thoseG3588 who committedG4238 the badG5337 deeds to a resurrectionG386 of judgmentG2920.
