John 5:1-13 - A Paralytic Is Healed

1 After these things was the feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up into Jerusalem. 2 And there is a pool at the sheep-market, called in Hebrew Bethzatha, having five porches. 3 In them a multitude of the sick, blind, lame, withered, were lying down. 4 OMITTED TEXT

5 And a certain man was there, being thirty-eight years in his infirmity; 6 Jesus seeing him lying down, and knowing that he already has much time, says to him; Do you wish to be whole?

7 The sick man responded to Him, Lord, I have no man that may put me in the pool, when the water may be troubled: and while I come, another goes down before me.

8 And Jesus says to him, Arise, take thy bed, and walk about. 9 And the man was made whole, and he took up his bed and continued to walk about. And it was the Sabbath on that day. 10 Then the Jews were saying to the healed man, It is the Sabbath, and it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.

11 He responded to them, the one having made me whole, He said to me, Take thy bed, and walk about.

12 They asked him, Who is the man who said to thee, Take thy bed, and walk about? 13 And the sick man did not know who He is: for Jesus went out, the crowd being in the place.
