John 5:16-22

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

¹⁷But he answered them, My Father is working up to this time, and I work.

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

¹⁹Then answered Jesus and said to them, Truly, truly do I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing; for whatever He doeth, these things the Son also doeth in like manner;

²⁰for the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things which he himself doeth; and greater works than these will he show him, so that ye will wonder.

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

²²For neither doth the Father judge any one, but hath committed all judgment to the Son;
