6Jesus saw the man lying there, and, finding that he had been in this state a long time, said to him, “Do you wish to be cured?”
7“I have no one, Sir,” the sick man answered, “to put me into the bath when there is a troubling of the water, and, while I am getting to it, someone else steps down before me.”
8“Stand up,” said Jesus, “take up your mat, and walk.”
