John 5:1-9

The Healing at Bethesda

¹After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

²Now in Jerusalem, by the Sheep Gate, there is a pool which in Hebrew is called Bethesda, having five porticoes. ³In these porticoes lay a multitude of those who were sick, blind, limping, or paralyzed. ⁵Now a man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years. ⁶Jesus, upon seeing this man lying there and knowing that he had already been in that condition for a long time, *said to him, “Do you want to get well?” ⁷The sick man answered Him, “Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I am coming, another steps down before me.” ⁸Jesus *said to him, “Get up, pick up your pallet and walk.” ⁹Immediately the man became well, and picked up his pallet and began to walk.

Now it was a Sabbath on that day.

⁴For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
