John 5:16-18 And for this cause the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he did these things on the sabbath.

JPS_ASV_Byz⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ And for this cause the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he did these things on the sabbath. ¹⁷ But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh even until now, and I work. ¹⁸ For this cause therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only brake the sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
