医好三十八年之病者

这事以后,到了犹太人的一个节期,耶稣就上耶路撒冷去。

耶路撒冷,靠近羊门有一个池子,希伯来话叫做毕士大,旁边有五个廊子, 里面躺着瞎眼的、瘸腿的、血气枯干的许多病人[a] 在那里有一个人,病了三十八年。 耶稣看见他躺着,知道他病了许久,就问他说:“你要痊愈吗?” 病人回答说:“先生,水动的时候,没有人把我放在池子里,我正去的时候,就有别人比我先下去。” 耶稣对他说:“起来,拿你的褥子走吧!” 那人立刻痊愈,就拿起褥子来走了。

犹太人责耶稣犯安息日

10 那天是安息日,所以犹太人对那医好的人说:“今天是安息日,你拿褥子是不可的!” 11 他却回答说:“那使我痊愈的对我说‘拿你的褥子走吧’。” 12 他们问他说:“对你说‘拿褥子走’的是什么人?” 13 那医好的人不知道是谁,因为那里的人多,耶稣已经躲开了。 14 后来耶稣在殿里遇见他,对他说:“你已经痊愈了,不要再犯罪,恐怕你遭遇的更加厉害。” 15 那人就去告诉犹太人,使他痊愈的是耶稣。 16 所以犹太人逼迫耶稣,因为他在安息日做了这事。 17 耶稣就对他们说:“我父做事直到如今,我也做事。” 18 所以犹太人越发想要杀他,因他不但犯了安息日,并且称神为他的父,将自己和神当做平等。

尊敬子如尊敬父

19 耶稣对他们说:“我实实在在地告诉你们:子凭着自己不能做什么,唯有看见父所做的,子才能做;父所做的事,子也照样做。 20 父爱子,将自己所做的一切事指给他看,还要将比这更大的事指给他看叫你们稀奇。 21 父怎样叫死人起来,使他们活着,子也照样随自己的意思使人活着。 22 父不审判什么人,乃将审判的事全交于子, 23 叫人都尊敬子如同尊敬父一样。不尊敬子的,就是不尊敬差子来的父。 24 我实实在在地告诉你们:那听我话又信差我来者的,就有永生,不至于定罪,是已经出死入生了。 25 我实实在在地告诉你们:时候将到,现在就是了,死人要听见神儿子的声音,听见的人就要活了。 26 因为父怎样在自己有生命,就赐给他儿子也照样在自己有生命, 27 并且因为他是人子,就赐给他行审判的权柄。 28 你们不要把这事看做稀奇。时候要到,凡在坟墓里的,都要听见他的声音,就出来, 29 行善的复活得生,作恶的复活定罪。

30 “我凭着自己不能做什么,我怎么听见就怎么审判。我的审判也是公平的,因为我不求自己的意思,只求那差我来者的意思。 31 我若为自己作见证,我的见证就不真。 32 另有一位给我作见证,我也知道他给我作的见证是真的。 33 你们曾差人到约翰那里,他为真理作过见证。 34 其实我所受的见证不是从人来的,然而我说这些话,为要叫你们得救。 35 约翰是点着的明灯,你们情愿暂时喜欢他的光。 36 但我有比约翰更大的见证,因为父交给我要我成就的事,就是我所做的事,这便见证我是父所差来的。 37 差我来的父也为我作过见证。你们从来没有听见他的声音,也没有看见他的形象。 38 你们并没有他的道存在心里,因为他所差来的,你们不信。

圣经为耶稣的证据

39 “你们查考圣经[b],因你们以为内中有永生。给我作见证的就是这经, 40 然而你们不肯到我这里来得生命 41 我不受从人来的荣耀。 42 但我知道,你们心里没有神的爱。 43 我奉我父的名来,你们并不接待我;若有别人奉自己的名来,你们倒要接待他。 44 你们互相受荣耀,却不求从独一之神来的荣耀,怎能信我呢?

不信摩西怎能信主

45 “不要想我在父面前要告你们,有一位告你们的,就是你们所仰赖的摩西 46 你们如果信摩西,也必信我,因为他书上有指着我写的话。 47 你们若不信他的书,怎能信我的话呢?”

治好病了三十八年的人

这些事以后,到了犹太人的一个节期,耶稣就上耶路撒冷去。 在耶路撒冷靠近羊门有一个水池,希伯来话叫作毕士大,池边有五条走廊。 在那里躺着许多病人,有瞎眼的、瘸腿的和瘫痪的。(有些抄本有以下一段:“他们等候水动,4因为有主的使者按时下去搅动池水,水动之后,谁先下去,无论甚么病,必得痊愈。”) 那里有一个人,病了三十八年。 耶稣看见他躺着,知道他病了很久,就问他:“你要痊愈吗?” 病人回答:“先生,水动的时候,没有人把我放在池里;自己想去的时候,总是给别人抢先。” 耶稣对他说:“起来,拿着你的褥子走吧。” 那人立刻痊愈,就拿起褥子走了。

那天正是安息日。 10 因此犹太人对那医好了的人说:“今天是安息日,你拿着褥子是不可以的。” 11 他却回答:“那使我痊愈的对我说:‘拿起你的褥子走吧’。” 12 他们就问:“那对你说‘拿起来走吧’的是谁?” 13 那医好了的人不知道他是谁,因为那里人很多,耶稣已经避开了。 14 后来,耶稣在殿里遇见那人,对他说:“你已经痊愈了,不可再犯罪,免得招来更大的祸患。” 15 那人就去告诉犹太人,使他痊愈的就是耶稣。 16 从此犹太人就迫害耶稣,因为他常常在安息日作这些事。 17 耶稣却对他们说:“我父作工直到现在,我也作工。” 18 因此犹太人就更想杀耶稣,因为他不但破坏安息日,而且称 神为自己的父,把自己与 神当作平等。

人子的权柄

19 耶稣又对他们说:“我实实在在告诉你们,子靠着自己不能作甚么,只能作他看见父所作的;因为父所作的事,子也照样作。 20 父爱子,把自己所作的一切指示给他看,还要把比这些更大的事指示给他看,使你们惊奇。 21 父怎样叫死人复活,使他们得生命,子也照样随自己的意思使人得生命。 22 父不审判人,却已经把审判的权柄完全交给子, 23 使所有的人尊敬子好象尊敬父一样。不尊敬子的,就是不尊敬那差他来的父。 24 我实实在在告诉你们,那听见我的话又信那差我来的,就有永生,不被定罪,而是已经出死入生了。 25 我实实在在告诉你们,时候将到,现在就是了,死人要听见 神儿子的声音,听见的人就要活了。 26 就如父是生命的源头,照样他也使子成为生命的源头, 27 并且把执行审判的权柄赐给他,因为他是人子。 28 你们不要把这事看作希奇,因为时候将到,那时所有在坟墓里的都要听见他的声音, 29 并且都要出来;行善的复活得生命,作恶的复活被定罪。

给耶稣作见证的

30 “我靠着自己不能作甚么,我怎样听见,就怎样审判。我的审判是公义的,因为我不寻求自己的意思,只求那差我来者的旨意。 31 我若为自己作证,我的见证就不真。 32 然而另有一位为我作证的,我知道他为我作的见证是真的。 33 你们曾经派人到约翰那里,他为真理作过见证。 34 我不接受从人而来的见证,但我说这些事,是要你们得救。 35 约翰是一盏点亮的灯,你们情愿暂时在他的光中欢乐。 36 但我有比约翰更大的见证,因为父赐给我要我完成的工作,就是我所要作的,证明我是父所差来的。 37 差我来的父亲自为我作了见证。他的声音,你们从没有听过;他的容貌,你们从没有见过; 38 他的道,你们也不放在心里,因为你们不信他所差来的那一位。 39 你们研究圣经,因为你们认为圣经中有永生,其实为我作证的就是这圣经, 40 然而你们却不肯到我这里来得生命。

41 “我不接受从人而来的称赞; 42 我知道你们心里没有 神的爱。 43 我奉我父的名而来,你们不接待我;如果有别人以自己的名义而来,你们倒接待他。 44 你们彼此接受称赞,却不寻求从独一的 神而来的称赞,怎么能信呢? 45 不要以为我要向父控告你们,有一位控告你们的,就是你们所仰赖的摩西。 46 你们若信摩西,也必信我,因为他所写的书曾论及我。 47 你们若不信他所写的,怎能信我的话呢?”

耶穌在畢士大池邊治病

這事以後,猶太人的一個節期到了,耶穌便上耶路撒冷。 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, 裡面躺著瞎眼的、瘸腿的、癱瘓的等許多病人。 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]

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

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。」

耶穌對他說:「起來,拿起你的墊子走吧!」

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?」

  1. 5·4 有些經卷無「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。」

Jesus Heals a Man at a Pool

·Later [L After these things] Jesus went [L up] to Jerusalem for a ·special feast [L feast/festival of the Jews]. In Jerusalem there is a pool with five covered porches, which is called Bethesda[a] [C a pool of water north of the temple thought to have curative powers] in the Hebrew language [C referring to Aramaic, the native language of the Jews at the time]. This pool is near the Sheep Gate. Many sick people were lying on the porches beside the pool. Some were blind, some were crippled, and some were paralyzed |, and they waited for the water to move. ·Sometimes [At a certain time; From time to time] an angel of the Lord came down to the pool and stirred up the water. After the angel did this, the first person to go into the pool was healed from any sickness he had|[b]. A man was lying there who had been ·sick [an invalid; disabled] for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw the man and knew that he had been ·sick [an invalid; disabled] for such a long time, Jesus asked him, “Do you want to be well?”

The ·sick man [invalid] answered [him], “Sir, there is no one to help me get into the pool when the water ·starts moving [is stirred up]. While I am coming to the water, someone else always ·gets in [goes down] before me.”

Then Jesus said to him, “·Stand up [T Rise]. Pick up your ·mat [bed; cot] and walk.” And immediately the man ·was well [was healed; became whole]; he picked up his ·mat [bed; cot] and began to walk.

The day this happened was a Sabbath day. 10 So the ·Jews [or Jewish leaders] said to the man who had been healed, “Today is the Sabbath. It is ·against our law [L not lawful/permitted] for you to carry your ·mat [bed; cot] on the Sabbath day [C the fourth commandment prohibited work on the Sabbath, but not specifically this action (Ex. 20:8–11)].”

11 But he answered them, “The man who made me well told me, ‘Pick up your ·mat [bed; cot] and walk.’”

12 Then they asked him, “Who is the man who told you to pick up your ·mat [bed; cot] and walk?”

13 But the man who had been healed did not know who it was, because there were many people in that place, and Jesus had ·left [withdrawn; slipped away unnoticed].

14 Later, Jesus found the man at the Temple [area] and said to him, “See, you are well now. ·Stop sinning [T Sin no more] so that something worse does not happen to you.” [C Sometimes, not always, suffering can be explained by sin.]

15 Then the man left and told ·his people [the Jewish leaders; L the Jews] that Jesus was the one who had made him well.

16 Because Jesus was doing ·this [L these things] on the Sabbath day, ·some evil people [the Jewish leaders; L the Jews] began to ·persecute [harass] him. 17 But Jesus ·said to [L answered] them, “My Father ·never stops [is always; is still] working [C even on the Sabbath], and so I keep working, too.”

18 This made ·them [the Jewish leaders; L the Jews] try still harder to kill him. They said, “First Jesus was breaking the law about the Sabbath day. Now he says that God is his own Father, making himself equal with God!” [C Both breaking the Sabbath and blasphemy against God were punishable by death; Ex. 35:2; Lev. 24:16.]

Jesus Has God’s Authority

19 But Jesus ·said [answered them], “·I tell you the truth [L Truly, truly I say to you], the Son can do nothing ·alone [on his own initiative; by himself]. The Son does only what he sees the Father doing, ·because the Son does whatever the Father does [L for whatever the Father does, the Son does likewise]. 20 [L For] The Father loves the Son and shows the Son all the things he himself does. But the Father will show the Son even greater things than this so that you can all ·be amazed [marvel; be astonished]. 21 [L For] Just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to those he ·wants to [wishes; wills]. 22 ·In fact, [or For] the Father judges no one, but he has ·given [entrusted to] the Son ·power to do all the judging [L all judgment; Rev. 20:11–15] 23 so that all people will honor the Son as much as they honor the Father. Anyone who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.

24 “·I tell you the truth [L Truly, truly I say to you], whoever ·hears [obeys] ·what I say [L my word/message] and believes in the One who sent me has eternal life. That person will not ·be judged guilty [L come into judgment/condemnation] but has ·already left death and entered life [L passed from death into life]. 25 ·I tell you the truth [L Truly, truly I say to you], the ·time [L hour] is coming and is already here when the dead will ·hear [obey] the voice of the Son of God, and those who ·hear [obey] will ·have life [live]. 26 [L For] ·Life comes from the Father himself [just as the Father has life], ·and [so] he has ·allowed the Son to have [given the Son] life in himself as well. 27 And the Father has given the Son the ·approval [authority; power; right] to ·judge [execute judgment], because he is the Son of Man [C a title for the Messiah; Dan. 7:13–14]. 28 Don’t ·be surprised [marvel; be amazed] at this: A ·time [L hour] is coming when all who are dead and in their graves will hear his voice. 29 Then they will come out of their graves. Those who did good ·will rise and have life forever [L to the resurrection resulting in life], but those who did evil ·will rise to be judged guilty [L to the resurrection resulting in condemnation/judgment].

Jesus Is God’s Son

30 “I can do nothing ·alone [by myself; on my own initiative]. I judge ·only the way I am told [L as I hear], so my judgment is ·fair [just; right; righteous]. I don’t ·try to please myself [L seek my own will/desire], but ·I try to please [L the will of] the One who sent me.

31 “If only I ·tell people [testify; witness] about myself, ·what I say [my testimony; witness] is not ·true [valid]. 32 But there is another who ·tells [testifies; witnesses] about me, and I know that ·the things he says [L the witness/testimony he witnesses/testifies] about me are ·true [valid].

33 “You have sent people to John, and he has ·told you [testified/witnessed to] the truth. 34 It is not that I ·need [accept; depend on] ·what humans say [human testimony/witness]; I tell you this so you can be saved. 35 John was like a burning and shining lamp, and you were ·happy to enjoy [L willing to rejoice in] his light for a while.

36 “But I have a ·proof [testimony; witness] about myself that is ·greater [weightier] than that of John. [L For] The ·things [L works] I do, which are the ·things [L works] my Father gave me to ·do [complete; finish; C the signs and miracles which point to his saving work on the cross], ·prove [testify; witness] that the Father sent me. 37 And the Father himself who sent me has given ·proof [testimony; witness] ·about me [concerning me; on my behalf]. You have never heard his voice or seen ·what he looks like [his form; his outward appearance]. 38 His ·teaching [word; message] does not ·live [remain; abide] in you, because you don’t believe in the One the Father sent. 39 You ·carefully study [search; examine] the Scriptures because you think they give you eternal life. They do in fact ·tell [testify; witness] ·about me [concerning me; on my behalf], 40 but you ·refuse [do not want] to come to me to have that life.

41 “I don’t ·need [or accept; receive] ·praise [glory; honor] from people. 42 But I know you—I know that you don’t have God’s love in you. 43 I have come ·from my Father and speak for him [L in my Father’s name], ·but [or and] you don’t ·accept [receive] me. But when another person comes, ·speaking only for himself [L in his own name], you will ·accept [receive] him. 44 You try to ·get praise [receive glory/honor] from each other, but you do not try to ·get the praise [receive glory/honor] that comes from the only God. So how can you believe? 45 Don’t think that I will ·stand before the Father and say you are wrong [L accuse you before the Father]. The one who ·says you are wrong [L accuses you] is Moses, the one ·you hoped would save you [L in whom you hoped]. 46 [L For] If you really believed Moses, you would believe me, because Moses wrote about me [C in the Torah, the first five books of the OT; for example, Deut. 18:15 quoted in Acts 3:22]. 47 But if you don’t believe what Moses wrote, how can you believe what I say?”
