John 5:1-9 (NASB) 1 After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 2 Now in Jerusalem,
by the Sheep Gate, there is a pool which in Hebrew is called Bethesda, having five porticoes. 3 In these
porticoes lay a multitude of those who were sick, blind, limping, or paralyzed. 4 for an angel of the Lord went down at certain seasons into the pool and stirred up the water; whoever then first, after the stirring up of the water, stepped in was made well from whatever disease with
which he was afflicted. 5 Now a man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years. 6 Jesus, upon seeing this man lying there
and knowing that he had already been in that condition for a long time, *said to him, “Do you want to
get well?” 7 The sick man answered Him, “Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up,
but while I am coming, another steps down before me.” 8 Jesus *said to him, “Get up, pick up your
pallet and walk.” 9 Immediately the man became well, and picked up his pallet and began to walk. Now it was a Sabbath
on that day.
