John 5:16-18
New Life Version
The Jews Want to Kill Jesus
16 Because Jesus did these things on the Day of Rest, the Jews made it very hard for Him. 17 Jesus said to them, “My Father is still working all the time so I am working also.” 18 The Jews tried all the more to kill Him, not only because He had worked on the Day of Rest, but because He had also called God His Own Father. This made Him the same as God.

John 5:16-18
New International Version
The Authority of the Son
16 So, because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jewish leaders began to persecute him. 17 In his defense Jesus said to them, “My Father(A) is always at his work(B) to this very day, and I too am working.” 18 For this reason they tried all the more to kill him;(C) not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.(D)
