The Life of Jesus

The Jews therefore said to him that was healed: It is the sabbath. It is not lawful for thee to take up thy bed.

He answered them: He that made me whole, he said to me: Take up thy bed and walk.

They asked him therefore: Who is that man who said to thee: Take up thy bed and walk?

But he who was healed knew not who it was: for Jesus went aside from the multitude standing in the place.

Afterwards, Jesus findeth him in the temple and saith to him: Behold thou art made whole: sin no more, lest some worse thing happen to thee.

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

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

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

Hereupon 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.

Then 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.

For 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.

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

For neither does the Father judge any man: but hath given all judgment to the Son.

That all men may honour the Son, as they honour the Father. He who honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father who hath sent him.

Amen, amen, I say unto you that he who heareth my word and believeth him that sent me hath life everlasting: and cometh not into judgment, but is passed from death to life.

Amen, amen, I say unto you, that the hour cometh, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.

For as the Father hath life in himself, so he hath given to the Son also to have life in himself.

And he hath given him power to do judgment, because he is the Son of man.

Wonder not at this: for the hour cometh wherein all that are in the graves shall hear the voice of the Son of God.

And they that have done good things shall come forth unto the resurrection of life: but they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of judgment.

I cannot of myself do any thing. As I hear, so I judge. And my judgment is just: because I seek not my own will. but the will of him that sent me.

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

There is another that beareth witness of me: and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.

You sent to John: and he gave testimony to the truth.

But I receive not testimony from man: but I say these things, that you may be saved.
