1. After these things there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2. Now there is in Jerusalem by the sheep gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew Bethesda, having five porches.
3. In these lay a multitude of them that were sick, blind, halt, withered.
5. And a certain man was there, which had been thirty and eight years in his infirmity.
6. When Jesus saw him lying, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wouldest thou be made whole?
7. The sick man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.
8. Jesus saith unto him, Arise, take up thy bed, and walk.
