John 5
1 Sometime after this there was a Jewish Festival; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
ⲁ̅ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲡϣⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅.
2 There is in Jerusalem, near the sheep-gate, a bath with five colonnades round it. It is called in Hebrew “Bethesda.”
ⲃ̅⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⲇⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ϯ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲃⲁⲧⲓⲕⲏ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲕⲟⲗⲩⲙⲃⲏⲑⲣⲁ ⲑⲏ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲉⲧϩⲉⲃⲣⲉⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲃⲏⲑⲥⲁⲓⲇⲁ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥⲧⲟ⳿ⲁ.
3 In these colonnades a large number of sick people were lying – blind, lame, and crippled.

5 One man who was there had been crippled for thirty-eight years.

6 Jesus saw the man lying there, and, finding that he had been in this state a long time, said to him, ‘Do you wish to be cured?’
ⲋ̅ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥ⳿ⲛⲕⲟⲧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲉⲣ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲭⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲭⲟⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ.
7 ‘I have no one, Sir,’ the sick man answered, ‘to put me into the bath when there is a troubling of the water, and, while I am getting to it, someone else steps down before me.’
ⲍ̅ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧϣⲱⲛⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲡⲁ⳪ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛϯ ⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛⲑⲟϩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϩⲓⲧ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϯⲕⲟⲗⲩⲙⲃⲏⲑⲣⲁ ϩⲱⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϣⲁⲣⲉ ⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲉⲣϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ.
8 ‘Stand up,’ said Jesus, ‘take up your mat, and walk.’
ⲏ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲧⲱⲛⲕ ⳿ⲁⲗⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕϭ ⲗⲟϫ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲟϣⲓ.
9 The man was cured immediately, and took up his mat and began walking.

10 Now it was the Sabbath. So the religious authorities said to the man who had been cured, ‘This is the Sabbath; you must not carry your mat.’
ⲓ̅ⲛⲁⲩϫⲱ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲉⲣⲫⲁϧⲣⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲥϣⲉ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕϭⲗⲟϫ.
11 ‘The man who cured me,’ he answered, ‘said to me “Take up your mat and walk.”’
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲑⲣⲓⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲡⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲓ ϫⲉ ⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕϭⲗⲟϫ ⲙⲁϣⲉ ⲛⲁⲕ.
12 ‘Who was it,’ they asked, ‘that said to you “Take up your mat and walk”?’
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩϣⲉⲛϥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲕ ϫⲉ ⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕ ϭⲗⲟϫ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲟϣⲓ.
13 But the man who had been restored did not know who it was; for Jesus had moved away, because there was a crowd there.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲫⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⲛⲁϥ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ.
14 Afterwards Jesus found the man in the Temple Courts, and said to him, ‘You are cured now; do not sin again, or something worse may happen to you.’
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϫⲉⲙϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲁⲕⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ϫⲉ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ ⲡⲉⲧϩⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩⲟ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲕ.
15 The man went away, and told the authorities that it was Jesus who had cured him.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲁϥϣⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲑⲣⲓⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ.
16 And that was why they began to persecute Jesus – because he did things of this kind on the Sabbath.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲛⲁⲩϭⲟϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁϥ⳿⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ.
17 But Jesus replied, ‘My Father works to this very hour, and I work also.’
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ϣⲁ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲡⲁⲓⲱⲧ ⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϩⲱ ϯⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ.
18 This made the authorities all the more eager to kill him, because not only was he doing away with the Sabbath, but he actually called God his own Father – putting himself on an equality with God.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⲛⲁⲩⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱϥ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲑⲃⲉϥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲙⲟⲛⲟⲛ ⲛⲁϥⲃⲱⲗ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲁϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲫϯ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲓⲱⲧ ⲉϥ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϩⲓⲥⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲫϯ.
19 So Jesus made this further reply, ‘In truth I tell you, the Son can do nothing of himself; he does only what he sees the Father doing; whatever the Father does, the Son does also.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲁⲙⲏⲛ ⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⲉⲣ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲁϥ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲉϥ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲣⲁ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲕⲉϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ.
20 For the Father loves his Son, and shows him everything that he is doing; and he will show him still greater things – so that you will be filled with wonder.
ⲕ̅⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ϥⲙⲉⲓ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲉϥ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ϥⲛⲁⲧⲁⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϩⲁⲛ⳿ϩⲃⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲉⲩⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲓ ⳿ϥⲛⲁⲧⲁⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣ⳿ϣⲫⲏ ⲣⲓ.
21 For, just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom he pleases.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥⲧⲁⲛϧⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲟⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲉϣⲏⲣⲓ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉϥⲟⲩⲁϣⲟⲩ ⳿ϥⲧⲁⲛϧⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ.
22 The Father himself does not judge any one, but has entrusted the work of judging entirely to his Son,

23 so that everyone may honour the Son, just as they honour the Father. The person who does not honour the Son fails to honour the Father who sent him.

24 In truth I tell you that the person who listens to my message and believes him who sent me, has eternal life, and does not come under condemnation, but has already passed out of death into life. (aiōnios g166)

25 In truth I tell you that a time is coming, indeed it is already here, when the dead will listen to the voice of the Son of God, and when those who listen will live.
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲙⲏⲛ ⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲉ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲧⲉ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲛⲁⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲧ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲏ ⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲉⲱⲛϧ.
26 For, just as the Father has inherent life within him, so also he has granted to the Son to have inherent life within him;
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲱⲛϧ ϣⲟⲡ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲁϥⲧⲏⲓⲥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲕⲉϣⲏ ⲣⲓ ⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⲟⲩⲱⲛϧ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ.
27 and, because he is Son of Man, he has also given him authority to act as judge.

28 Do not wonder at this; for the time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice,
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣⲉⲣ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲭⲏ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲙϩⲁⲩ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲉⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉϥ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ.
29 and will come out – those who have done good rising to life, and those who have lived evil lives rising for condemnation.

30 I can do nothing of myself; I judge as I am taught; and the judgment that I give is just, because my aim is not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

36 But the testimony which I have is of greater weight than John’s; for the work that the Father has given me to carry out – the work that I am doing – is in itself proof that the Father has sent me as his messenger.

37 The Father who has sent me has himself borne testimony to me. You have neither listened to his voice, not seen his form;

39 You search the scriptures, because you think that you find in them immortal life; and, though it is those scriptures that bear testimony to me, (aiōnios g166)

44 How can you believe in me, when you receive honour from one another and do not desire the honour which comes from the only God?

45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; your accuser is Moses, on whom you have been resting your hopes.

46 For, had you believed Moses, you would have believed me, for it was of me that Moses wrote;

47 but, if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my teaching?’
