John 5:5-14

5NowG1161 a manG444 was thereG1563 who had beenG2192 1illG769 for thirty-eightG5144G3638 yearsG2094. 6JesusG2424, upon seeingG3708 thisG3778 manG3778 lyingG2621 there and knowingG1097 that he had alreadyG2235 beenG2192 in that condition for a longG4183 timeG5550, saidG3004 to him, “Do you wantG2309 to getG1096 wellG5199?” 7The sickG770 man answeredG611 Him, “SirG2962, I haveG2192 noG3756 manG444 to putG906 me into the poolG2861 whenG3752 the waterG5204 is stirredG5015 up, but whileG1722G3739 I am comingG2064, anotherG243 stepsG2597 downG2597 beforeG4253 me.” 8JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “2GetG1453 upG1453, pickG142 upG142 your palletG2895 and walkG4043.” 9ImmediatelyG2112 the manG444 becameG1096 wellG5199, and pickedG142 upG142 his palletG2895 and began to walkG4043.

3NowG1161 it was a SabbathG4521 on that dayG2250. 10SoG3767 4the JewsG2453 were sayingG3004 to the man who was curedG2323, “It is a SabbathG4521, and 5it is not permissibleG1832 for you to carryG142 your palletG2895.” 11But he answeredG611 them, “He who madeG4160 me wellG5199 was the oneG1565 who saidG3004 to me, ‘PickG142 upG142 your palletG2895 and walkG4043.’” 12They askedG2065 him, “WhoG5101 is the ManG444 who saidG3004 to you, ‘PickG142 it upG142 and walkG4043’?” 13But the man who was healedG2390 did not knowG3609 whoG5101 it was, for JesusG2424 had slippedG1593 awayG1593 while there was a crowdG3793 in that placeG5117. 14AfterwardG3326G3778, JesusG2424 foundG2147 him in the templeG2413 and saidG3004 to him, “BeholdG2396, you have becomeG1096 wellG5199; do not 6sinG264 anymoreG3371, 7soG2443 thatG2443 nothingG3361G5100 worseG5501 happensG1096 to you.”
