5 And a certain man was there who had an infirmity thirty-eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he said unto him, Dost thou desire to be made whole?
7 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man when the water is troubled to put me into the pool, but while I am coming, another steps down before me.
8 Jesus said unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 And immediately the man was made whole and took up his bed and walked, and on that day was the sabbath.
10 The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day; it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
11 He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed and walk.
