John:5:1-15
Seeker Overlay ON
*
After these things ,
was a feast of the Jews ,
and Jesus went up unto Jerusalem .
*
Now there is in Jerusalem ,
at the Sheep-gate ,
a pool ,
which is called in Hebrew Bethzatha ,
having ,
five porches .
*
In these ,
was lying a throng of them who were sick ,
blind ,
lame ,
withered .
*
And there was a certain man there ,
who ,
for thirty-eight years ,
had continued in his sickness .
*
Jesus ,
seeing ,
this one ,
lying ,
and taking note that now ,
a long time ,
had he continued ,
saith unto him Desirest thou to be made ,
well ?
*
The sick man answered him Sir !
I have ,
no man ,
that ,
as soon as the water hath been troubled ,
might thrust me into the pool ;
but ,
while ,
I ,
am coming ,
another ,
before me ,
goeth down .
*
Jesus saith unto him Rise !
take up thy couch ,
and be walking .
*
And ,
straightway ,
the man was made well and took up his couch ,
and began to walk .
Now it was Sabbath ,
on that day .
*
The Jews ,
therefore ,
were saying ,
unto him who had been cured It is ,
Sabbath ;
and it is not allowable for thee to take up thy couch :
*
who ,
however ,
answered them He that made me well ,
he ,
unto me ,
said Take up thy couch ,
and be walking .
*
They questioned him Who is the man that said unto thee ,
Take up ,
and be walking ?
*
But ,
the healed one ,
knew not ,
who ,
it was ;
for ,
Jesus ,
had turned aside ,
a multitude ,
being in the place .
*
After these things ,
Jesus findeth him ,
in the temple ,
and said unto him See !
thou hast become ,
well :
No more ,
be committing sin ,
lest ,
some worse thing ,
do thee befall .
*
The man went away ,
and told the Jews ,
that it was ,
Jesus ,
who had made him well .
