bbe John:5:1-15
bbe@John:5:1 @After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
bbe@John:5:2 @Now in Jerusalem near the sheep-market there is a public bath which in Hebrew is named Beth-zatha. It has five doorways.
bbe@John:5:3 @In these doorways there were a great number of people with different diseases: some unable to see, some without the power of walking, some with wasted bodies.
bbe@John:5:5 @One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years.
bbe@John:5:6 @When Jesus saw him there on the floor it was clear to him that he had been now a long time in that condition, and so he said to the man, Is it your desire to get well?
bbe@John:5:7 @The ill man said in answer, Sir, I have nobody to put me into the bath when the water is moving; and while I am on the way down some other person gets in before me.
bbe@John:5:8 @Jesus said to him, Get up, take your bed and go.
bbe@John:5:9 @And the man became well straight away, and took up his bed and went. Now that day was the Sabbath.
bbe@John:5:10 @So the Jews said to the man who had been made well, It is the Sabbath; and it is against the law for you to take up your bed.
bbe@John:5:11 @He said to them, But he who made me well, said to me, Take up your bed and go.
bbe@John:5:12 @Then they put to him the question: Who is the man who said to you, Take it up and go?
bbe@John:5:13 @Now he who had been made well had no knowledge who it was, Jesus having gone away because of the number of people who were in that place.
bbe@John:5:14 @After a time Jesus came across him in the Temple and said to him, See, you are well and strong; do no more sin for fear a worse thing comes to you.
bbe@John:5:15 @The man went away and said to the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
