John 5:15-21

¹⁵The man went his way, and told the Jews, that it was Jesus who had made him whole.

¹⁶Therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, because he did these things on the sabbath.

¹⁷But Jesus answered them: My Father worketh until now; and I work.

¹⁸Hereupon therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he did not only break the sabbath, but also said God was his Father, making himself equal to God.

¹⁹Then Jesus answered, and said to them: Amen, amen, I say unto you, the Son cannot do any thing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing: for what things soever he doth, these the Son also doth in like manner.

²⁰For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things which himself doth: and greater works than these will he shew him, that you may wonder.

²¹For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and giveth life: so the Son also giveth life to whom he will.
