John 5:1-6

¹After these things there was a feast day of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

²And in Jerusalem is a washing place (or a pool), that in Hebrew is called Bethesda, and (it) hath five porches. Forsooth at Jerusalem is a standing water of beasts (or a watering pool for beasts), that in Hebrew is called Bethesda, having five little gates, or entries.

³In these lay a great multitude of sick men, blind, crooked (or lame), and dry (or withered), abiding (or waiting for) the moving or the stirring of the water.

⁴For the angel of the Lord came down (at) certain times into the standing water (or into the pool), and the water was moved; and he that first came down into the cistern, after the moving of the water, was made whole (or was healed) of whatever sickness he was held (by).

⁵And a man was there, having eight and thirty years in his sickness.

⁶And when Jesus had seen him lying (there), and had known, that he had much time (there), he saith to him, Wilt thou be made whole?
