John 5:2-7

2NowG1161 there isG1510 atG1722 JerusalemG3588G2414 byG1909 the sheepG4262 market a poolG2861, which is calledG1951 in the Hebrew tongueG1447 BethesdaG964, havingG2192 fiveG4002 porchesG4745.

3InG1722 theseG3778 layG2621 aG4128 greatG4183 multitudeG4128 of impotent folkG770, of blindG5185, haltG5560, witheredG3584, waiting forG1551 the movingG2796 of the waterG3588G5204.

4ForG1063 an angelG32 went downG2597 at a certainG2596 seasonG2540 intoG1722 the poolG3588G2861, andG2532 troubledG5015 the waterG3588G5204: whosoeverG3588 thenG3767 firstG4413 afterG3326 the troublingG3588G5016 of the waterG3588G5204 stepped inG1684 was madeG1096 wholeG5199 ofG3553 whatsoeverG1221 diseaseG3553 he hadG2722.

5AndG1161 a certainG5100 manG444 wasG1510 thereG1563, which hadG2192 an infirmityG3588G769 thirtyG5144 andG2532 eightG3638 yearsG2094.

6WhenG3708 JesusG3588G2424 sawG3708 himG3778 lieG2621, andG2532 knewG1097 thatG3754 he had beenG2192 nowG2235 a longG4183 timeG5550 in that case, he saithG3004 unto himG846, Wilt thouG2309 be madeG1096 wholeG5199?

7The impotent manG770 answeredG611 himG846, SirG2962, I haveG2192 noG3756 manG444, whenG3752 the waterG3588G5204 is troubledG5015, toG2443 putG906 meG1473 intoG1519 the poolG3588G2861: butG1161 whileG3739 IG1473 am comingG2064, anotherG243 steppeth downG2597 beforeG4253 meG1473.
