World English Bible
1Post hæc erat dies festus Judæorum, et ascendit Jesus Jerosolymam.
1After these things, there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2Est autem Jerosolymis probatica piscina, quæ cognominatur hebraice Bethsaida, quinque porticus habens.
2Now in Jerusalem by the sheep gate, there is a pool, which is called in Hebrew, “Bethesda”, having five porches.
3In his jacebat multitudo magna languentium, cæcorum, claudorum, aridorum, exspectantium aquæ motum.
3In these lay a great multitude of those who were sick, blind, lame, or paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water;
4Angelus autem Domini descendebat secundum tempus in piscinam, et movebatur aqua. Et qui prior descendisset in piscinam post motionem aquæ, sanus fiebat a quacumque detinebatur infirmitate.
4for an angel went down at certain times into the pool and stirred up the water. Whoever stepped in first after the stirring of the water was healed of whatever disease he had.
5Erat autem quidam homo ibi triginta et octo annos habens in infirmitate sua.
5A certain man was there who had been sick for thirty-eight years.
6Hunc autem cum vidisset Jesus jacentem, et cognovisset quia jam multum tempus haberet, dicit ei: Vis sanus fieri?
6When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been sick for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to be made well?”
7Respondit ei languidus: Domine, hominem non habeo, ut, cum turbata fuerit aqua, mittat me in piscinam: dum venio enim ego, alius ante me descendit.
7The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I’m coming, another steps down before me.”
8Dicit ei Jesus: Surge, tolle grabatum tuum et ambula.
8Jesus said to him, “Arise, take up your mat, and walk.”
9Et statim sanus factus est homo ille: et sustulit grabatum suum, et ambulabat. Erat autem sabbatum in die illo.
9Immediately, the man was made well, and took up his mat and walked. Now that day was a Sabbath.
10Dicebant ergo Judæi illi qui sanatus fuerat: Sabbatum est, non licet tibi tollere grabatum tuum.
10So the Jews said to him who was cured, “It is the Sabbath. It is not lawful for you to carry the mat.”
11Respondit eis: Qui me sanum fecit, ille mihi dixit: Tolle grabatum tuum et ambula.
11He answered them, “He who made me well said to me, ‘Take up your mat and walk.’ ”
12Interrogaverunt ergo eum: Quis est ille homo qui dixit tibi: Tolle grabatum tuum et ambula?
12Then they asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Take up your mat and walk’ ?”
13Is autem qui sanus fuerat effectus, nesciebat quis esset. Jesus enim declinavit a turba constituta in loco.
13But he who was healed didn’t know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a crowd being in the place.
14Postea invenit eum Jesus in templo, et dixit illi: Ecce sanus factus es; jam noli peccare, ne deterius tibi aliquid contingat.
14Afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, “Behold, you are made well. Sin no more, so that nothing worse happens to you.”
15Abiit ille homo, et nuntiavit Judæis quia Jesus esset, qui fecit eum sanum.
15The man went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
16Propterea persequebantur Judæi Jesum, quia hæc faciebat in sabbato.
16For this cause the Jews persecuted Jesus and sought to kill him, because he did these things on the Sabbath.
17Jesus autem respondit eis: Pater meus usque modo operatur, et ego operor.
17But Jesus answered them, “My Father is still working, so I am working, too.”
18Propterea ergo magis quærebant eum Judæi interficere: quia non solum solvebat sabbatum, sed et patrem suum dicebat Deum, æqualem se faciens Deo. Respondit itaque Jesus, et dixit eis:
18For this cause therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
19Amen, amen dico vobis: non potest Filius a se facere quidquam, nisi quod viderit Patrem facientem: quæcumque enim ille fecerit, hæc et Filius similiter facit.
19Jesus therefore answered them, “Most certainly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father doing. For whatever things he does, these the Son also does likewise.
20Pater enim diligit Filium, et omnia demonstrat ei quæ ipse facit: et majora his demonstrabit ei opera, ut vos miremini.
20For the Father has affection for the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does. He will show him greater works than these, that you may marvel.
21Sicut enim Pater suscitat mortuos, et vivificat, sic et Filius, quos vult, vivificat.
21For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom he desires.
22Neque enim Pater judicat quemquam: sed omne judicium dedit Filio,
22For the Father judges no one, but he has given all judgment to the Son,
23ut omnes honorificent Filium, sicut honorificant Patrem; qui non honorificat Filium, non honorificat Patrem, qui misit illum.
23that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who doesn’t honor the Son doesn’t honor the Father who sent him.
24Amen, amen dico vobis, quia qui verbum meum audit, et credit ei qui misit me, habet vitam æternam, et in judicium non venit, sed transiit a morte in vitam.
24“Most certainly I tell you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and doesn’t come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.
25Amen, amen dico vobis, quia venit hora, et nunc est, quando mortui audient vocem Filii Dei: et qui audierint, vivent.
25Most certainly I tell you, the hour comes, and now is, when the dead will hear the Son of God’s voice; and those who hear will live.
26Sicut enim Pater habet vitam in semetipso, sic dedit et Filio habere vitam in semetipso:
26For as the Father has life in himself, even so he gave to the Son also to have life in himself.
27et potestatem dedit ei judicium facere, quia Filius hominis est.
27He also gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man.
28Nolite mirari hoc, quia venit hora in qua omnes qui in monumentis sunt audient vocem Filii Dei:
28Don’t marvel at this, for the hour comes in which all who are in the tombs will hear his voice
29et procedent qui bona fecerunt, in resurrectionem vitæ; qui vero mala egerunt, in resurrectionem judicii.
29and will come out; those who have done good, to the resurrection of life; and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.
30Non possum ego a meipso facere quidquam. Sicut audio, judico: et judicium meum justum est, quia non quæro voluntatem meam, sed voluntatem ejus qui misit me.
30I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is righteous, because I don’t seek my own will, but the will of my Father who sent me.
31Si ego testimonium perhibeo de meipso, testimonium meum non est verum.
31“If I testify about myself, my witness is not valid.
32Alius est qui testimonium perhibet de me: et scio quia verum est testimonium, quod perhibet de me.
32It is another who testifies about me. I know that the testimony which he testifies about me is true.
33Vos misistis ad Joannem, et testimonium perhibuit veritati.
33You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.
34Ego autem non ab homine testimonium accipio: sed hæc dico ut vos salvi sitis.
34But the testimony which I receive is not from man. However, I say these things that you may be saved.
35Ille erat lucerna ardens et lucens: vos autem voluistis ad horam exsultare in luce ejus.
35He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.
36Ego autem habeo testimonium majus Joanne. Opera enim quæ dedit mihi Pater ut perficiam ea: ipsa opera, quæ ego facio, testimonium perhibent de me, quia Pater misit me:
36But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father gave me to accomplish, the very works that I do, testify about me, that the Father has sent me.
37et qui misit me Pater, ipse testimonium perhibuit de me: neque vocem ejus umquam audistis, neque speciem ejus vidistis:
37The Father himself, who sent me, has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.
38et verbum ejus non habetis in vobis manens: quia quem misit ille, huic vos non creditis.
38You don’t have his word living in you, because you don’t believe him whom he sent.
39Scrutamini Scripturas, quia vos putatis in ipsis vitam æternam habere: et illæ sunt quæ testimonium perhibent de me:
39“You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me.
40et non vultis venire ad me ut vitam habeatis.
40Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.
41Claritatem ab hominibus non accipio.
41I don’t receive glory from men.
42Sed cognovi vos, quia dilectionem Dei non habetis in vobis.
42But I know you, that you don’t have God’s love in yourselves.
43Ego veni in nomine Patris mei, et non accipitis me; si alius venerit in nomine suo, illum accipietis.
43I have come in my Father’s name, and you don’t receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.
44Quomodo vos potestis credere, qui gloriam ab invicem accipitis, et gloriam quæ a solo Deo est, non quæritis?
44How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you don’t seek the glory that comes from the only God?
45Nolite putare quia ego accusaturus sim vos apud Patrem: est qui accusat vos Moyses, in quo vos speratis.
45“Don’t think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, even Moses, on whom you have set your hope.
46Si enim crederetis Moysi, crederetis forsitan et mihi: de me enim ille scripsit.
46For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote about me.
47Si autem illius litteris non creditis, quomodo verbis meis credetis?
47But if you don’t believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”
