John 5:14-19

¹⁴After these things Jesus finds him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art become well: sin no more, that something worse do not happen to thee.

¹⁵The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

¹⁶And for this the Jews persecuted Jesus and sought to kill him, because he had done these things on sabbath.

¹⁷But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto and I work.

¹⁸For this therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he had not only violated the sabbath, but also said that God was his own Father, making himself equal with God.

¹⁹Jesus therefore answered and said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself save whatever he sees the Father doing: for whatever things he does, these things also the Son does in like manner.
