在畢士大池邊治病

5 這些事以後，到了猶太人的一個節期，耶穌上耶路撒冷去。

2 在耶路撒冷，靠近羊門有一個池子，希伯來話叫畢士大[a]，旁邊有五個柱廊； 3 裏面躺着許多病人，有失明的、瘸腿的、癱瘓的[b]。 5 在那裏有一個人，病了三十八年。 6 耶穌看見他躺着，知道他病了很久，就問他：「你要痊癒嗎？」 7 病人回答他：「先生，水動的時候，沒有人把我放在池子裏；我正要去的時候，別人比我先下去了。」 8 耶穌對他說：「起來，拿起你的褥子走吧！」 9 那人立刻痊癒，就拿起自己的褥子走了。

那天是安息日， 10 所以猶太人對那被治好了的人說：「今天是安息日，你拿褥子是不合法的。」 11 他卻回答他們：「那使我痊癒的人對我說：『拿起你的褥子走吧！』」 12 他們問他：「對你說『拿起褥子走』的是甚麼人？」 13 那治好了的人不知道那人是誰，因為那裏人很多，耶穌已經躲開了。 14 後來耶穌在聖殿裏找到他，對他說：「你已經痊癒了，不要再犯罪，免得你的遭遇更壞。」 15 那人就去告訴猶太人，使他痊癒的是耶穌。 16 所以猶太人迫害耶穌，因為他在安息日做了這些事。 17 耶穌就回答他們：「我父做事直到如今，我也做事。」 18 為了這緣故，猶太人越發想要殺他，因為他不但犯了安息日，而且稱　神為他的父，把自己和　神看為同等。

聖子的權柄

19 於是耶穌回答，對他們說：「我實實在在地告訴你們，子憑着自己不能做甚麼，惟有看見父所做的，他才做；父所做的事，子也照樣做。 20 父愛子，將自己所做的一切事指示給他看，還要將比這更大的事給他看，使你們驚訝。 21 父怎樣叫死人復活，賜他們生命，子也照樣隨自己的意願賜人生命。 22 父不審判任何人，而是把審判的事全交給子， 23 為要使人都尊敬子，如同尊敬父一樣。不尊敬子的，就是不尊敬差子來的父。

24 「我實實在在地告訴你們，那聽我話又信差我來那位的，就有永生，不至於被定罪，而是已經出死入生了。 25 我實實在在地告訴你們，時候將到，現在就是了，死人要聽見　神兒子的聲音，聽見的人就要活了。 26 因為父怎樣自己裏面有生命，也照樣賜給他兒子自己裏面有生命， 27 並且賜給他施行審判的權柄，因為他是人子。 28 你們不要對這事感到驚訝，因為時候將到，凡在墳墓裏的，都要聽見他的聲音， 29 並且要出來：行善的，復活得生命；作惡的，復活被定罪。

30 「我憑着自己不能做甚麼。我怎麼聽見就怎麼審判，而我的審判是公平的，因為我不尋求自己的意願，只尋求差我來那位的旨意。」

為耶穌作見證

31 「我若為自己作見證，我的見證就不真。 32 另有一位為我作見證，我也知道他為我作的見證是真的。 33 你們曾差人到約翰那裏，他為真理作過見證。 34 其實，我所受的見證不是從人來的；然而，我說這些話是為了使你們得救。 35 約翰是點亮的明燈，你們情願因他的光歡欣一時。 36 但我有比約翰更大的見證：父交給我去完成的工作，就是我正在做的，為我作證是父差遣了我。 37 那差我來的父也為我作了見證。你們從來沒有聽見他的聲音，也沒有看見他的形像。 38 你們並沒有他的道存在心裏，因為你們不信他所差來的那一位。 39 你們查考聖經，因你們以為其中有永生；而這經正是為我作見證的。 40 然而，你們不肯到我這裏來得生命。

41 「我不接受從人來的榮耀， 42 但我知道，你們沒有愛　神的心。 43 我奉我父的名來了，你們並不接納我；若有別人奉自己的名來，你們倒會接納他。 44 你們互相受榮耀，卻不尋求從獨一　神來的榮耀，怎能信我呢？ 45 不要以為我會在父面前告你們；有一位告你們的，就是你們所仰望的摩西。 46 如果你們信摩西，也會信我，因為他寫過關於我的事。 47 你們若不信他的書，怎能信我的話呢？」

耶穌在畢士大池邊治病

5 這事以後，猶太人的一個節期到了，耶穌便上耶路撒冷。 2 耶路撒冷靠近羊門的地方有一個水池，希伯來話叫畢士大，池邊有五條走廊， 3 裡面躺著瞎眼的、瘸腿的、癱瘓的等許多病人。 4 他們都在等候天使來攪動池水。水動時，第一個下去的，無論患了什麼病都會痊癒。[a]

5 那裡有一個人病了三十八年。 6 耶穌看他躺著，知道他病了很久，就問他：「你想痊癒嗎？」

7 那人回答說：「先生，水動的時候，沒有人把我放進池子裡，我要下去的時候，別人總是先我一步。」

8 耶穌對他說：「起來，拿起你的墊子走吧！」

9 那人立刻痊癒了，拿起墊子開始行走。那天正好是安息日， 10 猶太人便對那人說：「今天是安息日，你不可拿著墊子走路。」

11 他說：「那位醫好我的叫我拿起墊子走。」

12 他們問他：「叫你拿起墊子走的人是誰？」

13 那人不知道是誰，因為那裡人多，耶穌已經躲開了。

14 後來，耶穌在聖殿裡遇見他，對他說：「現在你已經完全好了，別再犯罪了，免得你遭遇更不幸的事。」

15 那人便去告訴猶太人醫好他的是耶穌。 16 因為耶穌在安息日給人治病，猶太人開始迫害祂。 17 耶穌對他們說：「我父一直在工作，我也一直在工作。」

18 猶太人聽了，更想殺祂，因祂不但違犯了安息日的規矩，還稱上帝為父，把自己看作與上帝平等。

聖子的權柄

19 耶穌說：「我實實在在地告訴你們，子憑自己什麼都不能做，唯有看見父做什麼，子才做什麼。無論父做什麼，子也照樣做。 20 父因為愛子，便把自己的一切作為給祂看，而且還要把比這些更大的作為給祂看，叫你們驚奇。 21 父如何使死人復活、賜生命給他們，子也照樣想賜生命給誰，就賜給誰。 22 父不審判人，祂將審判的事全交給子， 23 叫人尊敬子如同尊敬父。不尊敬子的，就是不尊敬差子來的父。

24 「我實實在在地告訴你們，誰聽從我的話，又信差我來的那位，誰就有永生，不被定罪，已經出死入生了。 25 我實實在在地告訴你們，時候快到了，現在就是，死人將聽見上帝兒子的聲音，聽見的將存活。 26 因為正如父自己是生命的源頭，祂也同樣讓子作生命的源頭， 27 又把審判的權柄交給祂，因為祂是人子。 28 你們不要因此而驚奇，時候一到，一切在墳墓裡的死人都要聽見上帝兒子的聲音， 29 他們都要從墳墓裡出來。行善的人復活後得永生，作惡的人復活後被定罪。」

見證耶穌

30 耶穌繼續說：「我憑自己不能做什麼，我按父上帝的旨意審判，我的審判是公平的；因為我不是按自己的旨意行，而是按差我來者的旨意行。

31 「如果我為自己做見證，我的見證是無效的。 32 然而，有別的人給我做見證，我知道他為我做的見證是真實的。 33 你們曾派人到約翰那裡，他為真理做過見證。 34 其實我並不需要人的見證，我之所以提起這些事是為了使你們得救。 35 約翰是一盞點亮的明燈，你們情願暫時享受他的光。 36 但是我有比約翰更大的見證，因為父交待我去完成的工作，就是我現在所做的工作，證明我是父差來的。 37 差我來的父曾親自為我做過見證。你們從未聽過祂的聲音，從未見過祂， 38 心裡也沒有祂的道，因為你們不信祂所差來的那位。 39 你們研讀聖經，以為從聖經中可以得到永生。其實為我做見證的正是這聖經， 40 但你們卻不肯到我這裡來得生命。

41 「我不接受人所給予的榮耀， 42 我知道你們沒有愛上帝的心。 43 我奉我父的名來，你們不接受我；若有人奉自己的名來，你們卻接受他。 44 你們喜歡互相恭維，卻不追求從獨一上帝來的榮耀，怎能信我呢？ 45 不要以為我會在父面前控告你們，其實控告你們的是你們一直信賴的摩西。 46 你們若信摩西，就應該信我，因為他的書裡也提到我。 47 如果你們連他寫的都不信，又怎能信我的話呢？」

Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version

耶稣治愈池边的病人

5 之后，是犹太人的一个节期，耶稣到耶路撒冷去了， 2 在耶路撒冷羊门附近有一个池子，希伯来语称之为“毕士大 [a]”。它有五列柱廊， 3 在它的下边，躺着大群的病人，瞎子、跛子或瘫痪的人， [b] 4  [c] 5 其中有个人病了三十八年。 6 耶稣看到他躺在那里，知道他病了很久了。耶稣对他说∶“你想痊愈吗？”

7 病人回答说∶“先生，水动的时候，没人帮我进池子。当我试着自己进的时候，总有人抢在我之前先下去。”

8 耶稣对他说∶“站起来，收拾起铺盖走吧。” 9 那人立刻康复了，他拿起铺盖，抬脚走了。

那天是安息日， 10 所以，犹太人对痊愈的病人说∶“今天是安息日，你扛着铺盖是触犯律法的。”

11 他对他们说∶“为我治好病的人说∶‘收拾起铺盖走吧。’”

12 他们问∶“对你说∶‘收拾起铺盖走吧。’的人是谁？”

13 那人不知道给他治病的人是谁，因为耶稣已经消失在聚集在那里的人群中了。

14 后来，耶稣在大殿院里见到那个人，对他说∶“看，你现在好了，不要再犯罪了，否则你的遭遇会更惨。”

15 那人离开后，告诉犹太人给他治好病的人就是耶稣。 16 因此，犹太人开始迫害耶稣，因为他在安息日做这些事。

17 耶稣对他们说∶“我父总是在工作，所以我也必须工作。”

因此，犹太人更是千方百计地要杀害他， 18 因为他不仅破坏了安息日的规矩，而且还把上帝称为自己的父亲，和上帝平起平坐。

耶稣有上帝的权威

19 耶稣是这样回答他们的∶“我实话告诉你们，子仅凭自己是无能为力的，他只做他看到父亲所做的事情。父亲做什么，子也做什么。 20 父很爱子，把自己的一切都做给子看，他还要把比治病更了不起的事情做给子看呢。那时候，你们才会吃惊呢。 21 正如父让死人复活并给予他们生命一样，子也会随自己的意愿把生命给予那些他想给予的人们。 22 父不审判任何人，他把所有审判的事情都交给了子。 23 为的是使万民像尊敬父一样尊敬子。不尊敬子的人，就是不尊敬派子来的父”。

24 “我实话告诉你们，谁听我的话，又信仰派我来的那位，谁就会得到永生，就不会被定罪，他就已经出死入生了。 25 我实话告诉你们，这个时刻就要到来了，它已在此了，所有的死者都将听到上帝之子的声音，听到这声音的人都会死而复活的。 26 正如父是生命之源一样，同样，他让子也成为了生命之源， 27 他赋予子审判的权利，因为耶稣是人子。 28 你们不必为此感到惊诧，这一时刻就要来临了，所有进了坟墓的人都会听到他的声音， 29 并且应声而出。行过善的人将复活再生；做过恶事的，将复活被定罪。

30 “我凭自己一无所能，我按照上帝的吩咐来审判，而且，我的审判是公平的，因为我不求取悦自己，只求取悦差谴我的那位。

耶稣对犹太首领继续讲话

31 如果我为自己作证，那么我的证言是无效的， 32 另有一位为我作见证的人，我知道他为我作的见证是有效的。

33 你们派人到约翰那里去过，他告诉了你们真理， 34 但我不依赖凡人的见证，我之所以这样说，是为了使你们能得救。 35 约翰像一盏点燃发光的灯，你们愿意享受他片刻的光。 36 但是，我有比约翰的更有份量的见证，那就是父交给我去完成的事业－也就是我现在所做的事－这些事可证明父亲派遣了我。 37 差谴我来的父亲亲自为我作过见证。你们从未听到过他的声音，也没有见过他的样子， 38 你们不把他的教导记在心里，因为你们不信仰他派来的人。 39 你们钻研《经》，以为通过《经》可以获得永生。正是这些《经》为我作了见证！ 40 然而，你们却不愿意到我这里来求得永生。

41 我不接受凡人的赞美， 42 但是我了解你们，知道你们心中没有上帝的爱。 43 我奉我父的名义而来，你们却不接受我；如果其他人以自己的名义而来，你们竟会接受他！ 44 既然你们并不寻求来自唯一的上帝的赞许，而只接受彼此的恭维，又怎么会相信我呢？ 45 不要以为我会在父面前控告你们，要控告你们的人是你们寄希望的摩西。假如你们真的相信摩西， 46 那么就应该相信我，因为他写下了关于我的事。 47 既然你们连他写的都不相信，又怎么会相信我所说的呢？”

New American Bible (Revised Edition)

Chapter 5[a]

Cure on a Sabbath. 1 After this, there was a feast[b] of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.(A) 2 Now there is in Jerusalem at the Sheep [Gate][c] a pool called in Hebrew Bethesda, with five porticoes.(B) 3 In these lay a large number of ill, blind, lame, and crippled.[d] [4 ][e] 5 One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been ill for a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be well?” 7 The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; while I am on my way, someone else gets down there before me.” 8 Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your mat, and walk.”(C) 9 Immediately the man became well, took up his mat, and walked.(D)

Now that day was a sabbath. 10 So the Jews said to the man who was cured, “It is the sabbath, and it is not lawful for you to carry your mat.”(E) 11 He answered them, “The man who made me well told me, ‘Take up your mat and walk.’” 12 They asked him, “Who is the man who told you, ‘Take it up and walk’?” 13 The man who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away, since there was a crowd there.(F) 14 [f]After this Jesus found him in the temple area and said to him,(G) “Look, you are well; do not sin any more, so that nothing worse may happen to you.” 15 The man went and told the Jews that Jesus was the one who had made him well. 16 Therefore, the Jews began to persecute Jesus because he did this on a sabbath.(H) 17 [g]But Jesus answered them,(I) “My Father is at work until now, so I am at work.” 18 For this reason the Jews tried all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath but he also called God his own father, making himself equal to God.(J)

The Work of the Son. 19 [h]Jesus answered and said to them, “Amen, amen, I say to you, a son cannot do anything on his own, but only what he sees his father doing;(K) for what he does, his son will do also. 20 For the Father loves his Son and shows him everything that he himself does, and he will show him greater works than these, so that you may be amazed.(L) 21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives life,[i] so also does the Son give life to whomever he wishes.(M) 22 Nor does the Father judge anyone, but he has given all judgment[j] to his Son,(N) 23 so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him. 24 Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes in the one who sent me has eternal life and will not come to condemnation, but has passed from death to life.(O) 25 Amen, amen, I say to you, the hour is coming and is now here when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.(P) 26 For just as the Father has life in himself, so also he gave to his Son the possession of life in himself.(Q) 27 And he gave him power to exercise judgment, because he is the Son of Man.(R) 28 [k]Do not be amazed at this, because the hour is coming in which all who are in the tombs will hear his voice(S) 29 and will come out, those who have done good deeds to the resurrection of life, but those who have done wicked deeds to the resurrection of condemnation.(T)

30 “I cannot do anything on my own; I judge as I hear, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek my own will but the will of the one who sent me.(U)

Witnesses to Jesus. 31 (V)“If I testify on my own behalf, my testimony cannot be verified. 32 But there is another[l] who testifies on my behalf, and I know that the testimony he gives on my behalf is true. 33 You sent emissaries to John, and he testified to the truth.(W) 34 I do not accept testimony from a human being, but I say this so that you may be saved.(X) 35 He was a burning and shining lamp,[m] and for a while you were content to rejoice in his light.(Y) 36 But I have testimony greater than John’s. The works that the Father gave me to accomplish, these works that I perform testify on my behalf that the Father has sent me.(Z) 37 Moreover, the Father who sent me has testified on my behalf. But you have never heard his voice nor seen his form,(AA) 38 and you do not have his word remaining in you, because you do not believe in the one whom he has sent.(AB) 39 You search[n] the scriptures, because you think you have eternal life through them; even they testify on my behalf.(AC) 40 But you do not want to come to me to have life.

Unbelief of Jesus’ Hearers. 41 “I do not accept human praise;[o] 42 moreover, I know that you do not have the love of God in you.(AD) 43 I came in the name of my Father, but you do not accept me; yet if another comes in his own name, you will accept him.(AE) 44 How can you believe, when you accept praise from one another and do not seek the praise that comes from the only God?(AF) 45 Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father: the one who will accuse you is Moses, in whom you have placed your hope.(AG) 46 For if you had believed Moses, you would have believed me, because he wrote about me.(AH) 47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”

Footnotes

  1. 5:1–47 The self-revelation of Jesus continues in Jerusalem at a feast. The third sign (cf. Jn 2:11; 4:54) is performed, the cure of a paralytic by Jesus’ life-giving word. The water of the pool fails to bring life; Jesus’ word does.
  2. 5:1 The reference in Jn 5:45–46 to Moses suggests that the feast was Pentecost. The connection of that feast with the giving of the law to Moses on Sinai, attested in later Judaism, may already have been made in the first century. The feast could also be Passover (cf. Jn 6:4). John stresses that the day was a sabbath (Jn 5:9).
  3. 5:2 There is no noun with Sheep. “Gate” is supplied on the grounds that there must have been a gate in the NE wall of the temple area where animals for sacrifice were brought in; cf. Neh 3:1, 32; 12:39. Hebrew: more precisely, Aramaic. Bethesda: preferred to variants “Be(th)zatha” and “Bethsaida”; bêt-’ešdatayīn is given as the name of a double pool northeast of the temple area in the Qumran Copper Roll. Five porticoes: a pool excavated in Jerusalem actually has five porticoes.
  4. 5:3 The Caesarean and Western recensions, followed by the Vulgate, add “waiting for the movement of the water.” Apparently an intermittent spring in the pool bubbled up occasionally (see Jn 5:7). This turbulence was believed to cure.
  5. 5:4 Toward the end of the second century in the West and among the fourth-century Greek Fathers, an additional verse was known: “For [from time to time] an angel of the Lord used to come down into the pool; and the water was stirred up, so the first one to get in [after the stirring of the water] was healed of whatever disease afflicted him.” The angel was a popular explanation of the turbulence and the healing powers attributed to it. This verse is missing from all early Greek manuscripts and the earliest versions, including the original Vulgate. Its vocabulary is markedly non-Johannine.
  6. 5:14 While the cure of the paralytic in Mk 2:1–12 is associated with the forgiveness of sins, Jesus never drew a one-to-one connection between sin and suffering (cf. Jn 9:3; Lk 12:1–5), as did Ez 18:20.
  7. 5:17 Sabbath observance (Jn 5:10) was based on God’s resting on the seventh day (cf. Gn 2:2–3; Ex 20:11). Philo and some rabbis insisted that God’s providence remains active on the sabbath, keeping all things in existence, giving life in birth and taking it away in death. Other rabbis taught that God rested from creating, but not from judging (= ruling, governing). Jesus here claims the same authority to work as the Father, and, in the discourse that follows, the same divine prerogatives: power over life and death (Jn 5:21, 24–26) and judgment (Jn 5:22, 27).
  8. 5:19 This proverb or parable is taken from apprenticeship in a trade: the activity of a son is modeled on that of his father. Jesus’ dependence on the Father is justification for doing what the Father does.
  9. 5:21 Gives life: in the Old Testament, a divine prerogative (Dt 32:39; 1 Sm 2:6; 2 Kgs 5:7; Tb 13:2; Is 26:19; Dn 12:2).
  10. 5:22 Judgment: another divine prerogative, often expressed as acquittal or condemnation (Dt 32:36; Ps 43:1).
  11. 5:28–29 While Jn 5:19–27 present realized eschatology, Jn 5:28–29 are future eschatology; cf. Dn 12:2.
  12. 5:32 Another: likely the Father, who in four different ways gives testimony to Jesus, as indicated in the verse groupings Jn 5:33–34, 36, 37–38, 39–40.
  13. 5:35 Lamp: cf. Ps 132:17—“I will place a lamp for my anointed (= David),” and possibly the description of Elijah in Sir 48:1. But only for a while, indicating the temporary and subordinate nature of John’s mission.
  14. 5:39 You search: this may be an imperative: “Search the scriptures, because you think that you have eternal life through them.”
  15. 5:41 Praise: the same Greek word means “praise” or “honor” (from others) and “glory” (from God). There is a play on this in Jn 5:44.

New International Version

The Healing at the Pool

5 Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish festivals. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate(A) a pool, which in Aramaic(B) is called Bethesda[a] and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades. 3 Here a great number of disabled people used to lie—the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. [4] [b] 5 One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?”

7 “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.”

8 Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.”(C) 9 At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked.

The day on which this took place was a Sabbath,(D) 10 and so the Jewish leaders(E) said to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath; the law forbids you to carry your mat.”(F)

11 But he replied, “The man who made me well said to me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’ ”

12 So they asked him, “Who is this fellow who told you to pick it up and walk?”

13 The man who was healed had no idea who it was, for Jesus had slipped away into the crowd that was there.

14 Later Jesus found him at the temple and said to him, “See, you are well again. Stop sinning(G) or something worse may happen to you.” 15 The man went away and told the Jewish leaders(H) that it was Jesus who had made him well.

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(I) is always at his work(J) to this very day, and I too am working.” 18 For this reason they tried all the more to kill him;(K) not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.(L)

19 Jesus gave them this answer: “Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself;(M) he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. 20 For the Father loves the Son(N) and shows him all he does. Yes, and he will show him even greater works than these,(O) so that you will be amazed. 21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life,(P) even so the Son gives life(Q) to whom he is pleased to give it. 22 Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son,(R) 23 that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him.(S)

24 “Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me(T) has eternal life(U) and will not be judged(V) but has crossed over from death to life.(W) 25 Very truly I tell you, a time is coming and has now come(X) when the dead will hear(Y) the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live. 26 For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life(Z) in himself. 27 And he has given him authority to judge(AA) because he is the Son of Man.

28 “Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming(AB) when all who are in their graves will hear his voice 29 and come out—those who have done what is good will rise to live, and those who have done what is evil will rise to be condemned.(AC) 30 By myself I can do nothing;(AD) I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just,(AE) for I seek not to please myself but him who sent me.(AF)

Testimonies About Jesus

31 “If I testify about myself, my testimony is not true.(AG) 32 There is another who testifies in my favor,(AH) and I know that his testimony about me is true.

33 “You have sent to John and he has testified(AI) to the truth. 34 Not that I accept human testimony;(AJ) but I mention it that you may be saved.(AK) 35 John was a lamp that burned and gave light,(AL) and you chose for a time to enjoy his light.

36 “I have testimony weightier than that of John.(AM) For the works that the Father has given me to finish—the very works that I am doing(AN)—testify that the Father has sent me.(AO) 37 And the Father who sent me has himself testified concerning me.(AP) You have never heard his voice nor seen his form,(AQ) 38 nor does his word dwell in you,(AR) for you do not believe(AS) the one he sent.(AT) 39 You study[c] the Scriptures(AU) diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life.(AV) These are the very Scriptures that testify about me,(AW) 40 yet you refuse to come to me(AX) to have life.

41 “I do not accept glory from human beings,(AY) 42 but I know you. I know that you do not have the love of God in your hearts. 43 I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not accept me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him. 44 How can you believe since you accept glory from one another but do not seek the glory that comes from the only God[d]?(AZ)

45 “But do not think I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses,(BA) on whom your hopes are set.(BB) 46 If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me.(BC) 47 But since you do not believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?”(BD)
