dby - John:5:1-15

dby@John:5:1 @ After these things was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

dby@John:5:2 @ Now there is in Jerusalem, at the sheepgate, a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches.

dby@John:5:3 @ In these lay a multitude of sick, blind, lame, withered, [awaiting the moving of the water.

dby@John:5:4 @ 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.]

dby@John:5:5 @ But there was a certain man there who had been suffering under his infirmity thirty and eight years.

dby@John:5:6 @ Jesus seeing this [man] lying [there], and knowing that he was [in that state] now a great length of time, says to him, Wouldest thou become well?

dby@John:5:7 @ The infirm [man] answered him, Sir, I have not a man, in order, when the water has been troubled, to cast me into the pool; but while I am coming another descends before me.

dby@John:5:8 @ Jesus says to him, Arise, take up thy couch and walk.

dby@John:5:9 @ And immediately the man became well, and took up his couch and walked: and on that day was sabbath.

dby@John:5:10 @ The Jews therefore said to the healed [man], It is sabbath, it is not permitted thee to take up thy couch.

dby@John:5:11 @ He answered them, He that made me well, he said to me, Take up thy couch and walk.

dby@John:5:12 @ They asked him [therefore], Who is the man who said to thee, Take up thy couch and walk?

dby@John:5:13 @ But he that had been healed knew not who it was, for Jesus had slidden away, there being a crowd in the place.

dby@John:5:14 @ After these things Jesus finds him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art become well: sin no more, that something worse do not happen to thee.

dby@John:5:15 @ The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
