John

²Now there is in Jerusalem by the sheep gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew Bethesda, having five porches. ³In these lay a multitude of them that were sick, blind, halt, withered. ⁵And a certain man was there, which had been thirty and eight years in his infirmity. ⁶When Jesus saw him lying, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wouldest thou be made whole? ⁷The sick 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 steppeth down before me. ⁸Jesus saith unto him, Arise, take up thy bed, and walk. ⁹And straightway the man was made whole, and took up his bed and walked. Now it was the sabbath on that day.
