John 5:15-32

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

¹⁶And for this cause the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did these things on the sabbath.

¹⁷But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh even until now, and I work.

¹⁸For this cause therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only brake the sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.

¹⁹Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing: for what things soever he doeth, these the Son also doeth in like manner.

²⁰For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things that himself doeth: and greater works than these will he show him, that ye may marvel.

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

²²For neither doth the Father judge any man, but he hath given all judgment unto the Son;

²³that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He that honoreth not the Son honoreth not the Father that sent him.

²⁴Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath eternal life, and cometh not into judgment, but hath passed out of death into life.

²⁵Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour cometh, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear shall live.

²⁶For as the Father hath life in himself, even so gave he to the Son also to have life in himself:

²⁷and he gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man.

²⁸Marvel not at this: for the hour cometh, in which all that are in the tombs shall hear his voice,

²⁹and shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of judgment.

³⁰I can of myself do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is righteous; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

³¹If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.

³²It is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
