MLV(i)
1 The feast of the Jews was after these things, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Now there is a pool in Jerusalem by the sheep gate called Bethesda in Hebrew, having five porches.
3 A large multitude of those who were sick, blind, lame, dried up, were reclining in this area waiting for the moving of the water.
4 For a messenger was going down every opportunity in the pool, and was disturbing the water. Therefore, the first one who stepped after the disturbance of the water became healthy, from whatever disease in which the one was being held.
5 Now a certain man was there, who was held in sickness for thirty eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him reclining and having known that he had spent much time already there, he says to him, Do you wish to become healthy?
7 The sick man answered him, Lord, I do not have a man, in order that he might put me in the pool whenever the water is disturbed. But while I am coming, another is going down before me.
8 Jesus says to him, Arise, lift up your pallet and walk. 9 And immediately the man became healthy, and lifted up his pallet and was walking.
Now it was the Sabbath on that day.
