    health , ] with whatsoever disease he was -afflicted . * [ This passage between asterisks is of very doubtful authority , but may be explained by the water being occasionally disturbed by an intermittent medicinal spring ,. which might by the ignorant multitude be attributed to supernatural agency . ] And a certain man was there , who-hadj 3 ejejxll ^^ in [ a state of ] infirmity .

    Jesus , seeing him lie , and knowing that he had been how along time [ afflicted , ] saith unto him : Wilt thou be made whole ?' The infirm man answered him : * Lord , I have no man , when the water is troubled , to put me into the bath ; but while I am coming , another goeth down before me . ' Jesus saith untohim : 'Arise ,

    take up thy bed , [ a portable couch or mattress used by the common people , ] and walk . ' And immediately the man was made wrfole , and took up his bed , and walked . Now the sabbath was on that day . The Jews therefore said unto him who had been cured : * It is the sabbath ; it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed . " * He answered them : ' He , who made me whole , said ' unto

    me : * Take up thy bed and walk . ' Then they asked him : Who is the man that said unto thee : " Take up thy bed and walk ? " ' But he that had been cured , knew not who it was ; for Jesus had gone away , there being a multitude in the place . Afterwards Jesus findeth him in the temple , and said unto him : Behold , thou hast been made whole ; sin nt ) more , lest Something worse befall thee . ' The man went and told the Jews , that it was Jesus who had made

    him whole . Wherefore the Jews persecuted Jesus , because he had done these things on the sabbath , But Jesus answered them : c My father worketh hitherto , and I work . ' Wherefore the more sought the Jews to kill him , because he had not only broken the sabbath , but also called God his own father , making himself equal [ i . e . especially related ] to God . Then Jesus answered and said unto them : * Verily , verily , I say unto you , The son can of himself do nothing , but what he seeth the father do ; for whatsoever he

    [ the father ] doeth , the son also doeth likewise ; for the father loveth the son , and showeth frim all things which himself doeth * and will show him greater works than these to your wonder . For as the father raiseth the dead , and maketh them alive , [ or restoreth them to life , ] so also the son maketh whom he will alive . Nor doth the father judge any one , but hath committed all judgment unto the son ; that all may honour the son , as they honour the father . He who honoureth not the son , honoureth not the

    father who sent him . Verily , verily I say unto you ; He' who heareth my word , and believeth in him who sent me , hath everlasting life , andcoraeth not into judgment , [ or condemnation , ] but is passed from death into life . Verily , verily I say unto you , The hour cometh and now is , when the dead shall hear the voice of the son of God ; and they who hear , shall live . For as the father hath life in himself , so hath he given unto the son also to have life in himself 5 and hath given him authority to execute
