WNT(i)
2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, called in Hebrew 'Bethesda.' It has five arcades.
3 In these there used to lie a great number of sick persons, and of people who were blind or lame or paralyzed.

5 And there was one man there who had been an invalid for thirty-eight years.
6 Jesus saw him lying there, and knowing that he had been a long time in that condition, He asked him, "Do you wish to have health and strength?"
7 "Sir," replied the sufferer, "I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is moved; but while I am coming some one else steps down before me."
8 "Rise," said Jesus, "take up your mat and walk."
9 Instantly the man was restored to perfect health, and he took up his mat and began to walk.
10 That day was a Sabbath. So the Jews said to the man who had been cured, "It is the Sabbath: you must not carry your mat."
11 "He who cured me," he replied, "said to me, 'Take up your mat and walk.'"
