Čovjek kod ribnjaka
5 Nakon toga, bio je židovski blagdan pa se Isus zaputio u Jeruzalem. 2 U Jeruzalemu se uz Ovčja vrata nalazi ribnjak. Na aramejskom se zove »Bethesda«, a ima pet natkrivenih trijemova. 3 Ispod njih je ležalo mnogo bolesnika, slijepaca, invalida i nepokretnih.[a] 4 [b] 5 Ondje je bio i čovjek koji je bolovao već trideset i osam godina. 6 Isus ga je vidio kako leži i znao je da već dugo boluje. Upitao ga je: »Želiš li ozdraviti?«
7 Bolesnik mu je odgovorio: »Gospodine, nema nikoga tko bi mi pomogao da uđem u ribnjak kad se uzburka voda. Kad krenem prema vodi, uvijek netko drugi uđe u nju prije mene.«
8 »Ustani«, na to će mu Isus, »uzmi svoj ležaj i hodaj!« 9 Čovjek je odmah ozdravio, uzeo svoj ležaj i počeo hodati.
10 Bio je šabat, dan odmora, pa su Židovi počeli govoriti čovjeku kojega je Isus ozdravio: »Danas je šabat. To što nosiš ležaj na šabat protivi se našem Zakonu!«
11 On im je odvratio: »Čovjek, koji me ozdravio, rekao mi je: ‘Uzmi svoj ležaj i hodaj.’«
12 Na to su ga upitali: »Koji ti je čovjek rekao da uzmeš svoj ležaj i hodaš?«
13 No on nije znao tko je bio čovjek koji ga je ozdravio. Na tom je mjestu bila velika gužva i Isus se neopaženo udaljio.
14 Kasnije ga je Isus pronašao u Hramu i rekao mu: »Vidiš, sada si zdrav. Ne griješi više, da ti se ne dogodi nešto gore!«
15 Čovjek je otišao i rekao Židovima da je Isus taj koji ga je iscijelio.
16 A Židovi su počeli progoniti Isusa jer je sve to činio na šabat. 17 Isus im je odgovorio: »Moj Otac nikada ne prestaje raditi. Tako i ja radim.«
18 Te su riječi bile povod Židovima da još više nastoje ubiti Isusa. Jer, ne samo što je kršio zakon o šabatu nego je Boga nazivao svojim Ocem. Izjednačio je sebe s Bogom.
Bog je Isusu dao vlast
19 Isus im je odgovorio: »Istinu vam kažem. Sin sâm od sebe ne može učiniti ništa, već samo ono što vidi da čini Otac. Što god čini Otac, to čini i Sin. 20 Otac ljubi Sina i pokazuje mu sve što čini. Pokazat će mu i veća djela od ovih. Tada ćete svi ostati zadivljeni. 21 Jer, kao što Otac podiže ljude od mrtvih i daruje im život, tako i Sin daruje život kome hoće. 22 Otac ne sudi nikome, nego je pravo donošenja suda prenio na svoga Sina, 23 da bi svi poštovali Sina kao što poštuju Oca. Tko ne poštuje Sina, ne poštuje ni Oca koji ga je poslao.
24 Govorim vam istinu, tko čuje moje riječi i povjeruje u onoga koji me poslao, ima vječni život. Njemu se neće suditi. On je iz smrti prešao u život. 25 Govorim vam istinu. Dolazi vrijeme—zapravo, već je došlo—kad će svi mrtvi čuti glas Božjega Sina. I svi koji čuju njegov glas, oživjet će. 26 Kao što je Otac izvor života, tako je i svojega Sina učinio izvorom života. 27 A dao mu je i vlast da sudi jer je on Sin Čovječji. 28 Neka vas ovo ne začudi! Jer, dolazi vrijeme kad će svi mrtvi čuti glas Sina Čovječjega te 29 izaći iz svojih grobova. Oni koji su činili dobro, ustat će i primiti vječni život, a oni koji su činili zlo, ustat će i primiti osudu. 30 Ja ne mogu ništa učiniti sâm. Sudim samo na temelju onoga što čujem. Moja je presuda pravedna jer ne vršim svoju volju, nego volju onoga koji me poslao.
31 Ako sâm svjedočim za sebe, moje svjedočanstvo nije vjerodostojno. 32 Postoji jedan koji svjedoči za mene i ja znam da je to svjedočanstvo o meni vjerodostojno.
33 Vi ste poslali ljude k Ivanu i on vam je govorio o istini. 34 Meni nije potrebno da čovjek govori o meni, ali vam sve ovo govorim da biste se spasili. 35 Ivan je bio poput svjetiljke koja gori i daje svjetlo. Vi ste nakratko željeli uživati u njegovoj svjetlosti.
36 No moje je svjedočanstvo veće od Ivanovog—djela su to koja mi je Otac povjerio da ih izvršim. Upravo ova djela koja sada činim svjedoče za mene i dokazuju da me poslao Otac. 37 I Otac, koji me je poslao, svjedočio je za mene. Vi mu nikada niste čuli glas niti ste ga vidjeli kako izgleda. 38 Njegova riječ ne živi u vama jer ne želite vjerovati onomu koga je poslao. 39 Proučavate Sveto pismo misleći da u njemu možete pronaći vječni život, a upravo to Sveto pismo govori o meni. 40 Pa, ipak, ne želite doći k meni da biste imali život.
41 Ja ne želim ljudske hvale. 42 Poznajem vas i znam da u vama nema Božje ljubavi. 43 Ja sam došao u ime svoga Oca, a ipak me ne želite prihvatiti. Da netko drugi dođe u svoje ime, njega biste prihvatili. 44 Kako možete vjerovati, vi, koji prihvaćate hvale jedan od drugoga, a ne tražite hvalu koja dolazi od jedinoga Boga? 45 Nemojte misliti da ću vas ja optužiti pred Ocem; optužit će vas Mojsije, u kojeg ste položili svoje nade. 46 Jer, da ste zaista vjerovali Mojsiju, vjerovali biste i meni. Mojsije je, naime, pisao o meni. 47 No, ako ne vjerujete onome što je napisao Mojsije, kako ćete povjerovati mojim riječima?«
Evanđelje po Ivanu 5
Knijga O Kristu
Isus iscjeljuje bogalja
5 Nakon toga Isus se vrati u Jeruzalem na židovski vjerski blagdan.
2 U gradu se, blizu Ovčjih vrata, nalazio ribnjak s pet natkrivenih trijemova, koji se na hebrejskome zove Bethesda.
3 Pod trijemovima je ležalo mnoštvo bolesnika - sakatih, slijepih i uzetih - čekajući da se uzbiba voda jer je
4 anđeo Gospodnji silazio s vremena na vrijeme i gibao vodu, a onaj tko bi nakon toga prvi ušao u vodu ozdravio bi ma od čega bolovao.
5 Tu je ležao neki bogalj, bolestan već trideset osam godina.
6 Kad ga Isus spazi i dozna kako dugo boluje, upita ga: 'želiš li ozdraviti?'
7 'Ne mogu ozdraviti, Gospodine,' reče čovjek, 'jer nemam nikoga da mi pomogne ući u ribnjak kad se voda uzburka. Dok ja pokušavam sići do nje, uvijek me netko pretekne.'
8 Isus mu reče: 'Ustani, uzmi svoj ležaj i idi kući!'
9 Čovjek tog trenutka ozdravi. Uzme svoj ležaj i počne hodati uokolo. Toga je dana, međutim, bila subota.
10 židovski vođe stoga prigovoriše iscijeljenom čovjeku: 'Ne smiješ raditi u subotu! Noseći taj ležaj, kršiš zakon!'
11 'Onaj koji me ozdravio reče mi: "Uzmi svoj ležaj i idi!'' odgovori čovjek.
12 'Tko je taj koji ti je takvo što rekao?' pitali su.
13 Iscijeljeni čovjek to nije znao. Isus je nestao u mnoštvu jer je ondje bilo mnogo svijeta.
14 Poslije ga Isus pronađe u Hramu i reče mu: 'Ozdravio si; ne griješi više da te ne bi i što gore snašlo!'
15 Čovjek tada ode i reče židovskim vođama da je Isus taj koji ga je iscijelio.
Isus tvrdi da je Božji Sin
16 Zbog toga židovi počeše optuživati Isusa da krši zakon o suboti.
17 Isus im odgovori: 'Moj Otac neprestano radi, a ja slijedim njegov primjer.'
18 Od tada su ga židovski vođe još revnije nastojali smaknuti jer ne samo da je kršio njihov zakon o suboti nego je i o Bogu govorio kao o svojem Ocu izjednačujući se tako s njime.
19 Isus im reče: 'Zaista vam kažem: Sin sam od sebe ne može učiniti ništa. Radi samo ono što vidi da radi i Otac, i to na jednak način.
20 Jer Otac voli Sina i pokazuje mu sve što sam čini. Sin će učiniti još mnogo veća čuda nego što je ozdravljenje ovoga čovjeka; čudom ćete se čuditi.
21 Od mrtvih će podignuti one koje zaželi, upravo kao što i Otac uskrisuje mrtve i oživljuje ih.
22 A Otac prepušta Sinu svaku osudu grijeha.
23 Tako će svi slaviti Sina, baš kao što slave i Oca. Tko ne iskazuje čast Božjemu Sinu, kojega je on poslao, sigurno ne proslavlja ni Oca.
24 Zaista vam kažem, svatko tko sluša moju poruku i tko vjeruje onome koji me poslao ima vječni život i nikada neće biti osuđen za svoje grijehe jer je već prešao iz smrti u život.
25 I zaista vam kažem da dolazi vrijeme, zapravo je već došlo, kad će mrtvi čuti glas Božjega Sina i oni koji ga poslušaju, živjet će.
26 Otac ima život u sebi i svojem je Sinu dao da ima život u sebi.
27 Dao mu je i vlast da sudi jer je on Sin Čovječji.
28 Ne čudite se tomu! Uistinu dolazi vrijeme kad će svi mrtvi u grobovima čuti glas Božjega Sina i
29 ponovno će ustati - oni koji su činili dobro, na uskrsnuće u život, a koji su činili zlo, na uskrsnuće u propast.
30 Ali ja ne činim ništa a da ne upitam Oca. Sudim kako mi je rečeno i moj je sud savršeno pravedan jer ne tražim vlastitu volju, nego sudim prema volji onoga koji me je poslao.'
Svjedočanstva o Isusu
31 'Kad bih ja sam za sebe svjedočio, moje svjedočanstvo ne bi bilo vjerodostojno,
32 ali i Otac svjedoči za mene i uvjeravam vas da je to što on o meni kaže istinito.
33 Poslali ste izaslanike da slušaju propovijedi Ivana Krstitelja; sve što je kazao o meni istina je.
34 Ali najtočnije svjedočanstvo o meni ne dolazi od čovjeka, iako sam vas podsjetio na Ivanovo svjedočanstvo kako biste povjerovali u mene i spasili se.
35 Ivan je bio svjetiljka koja je gorjela i svijetlila, a vi ste htjeli neko vrijeme uživati u njegovoj svjetlosti.
36 Ja, međutim, imam veće svjedočanstvo od Ivanova: djela koja činim. Otac mi je dao da ih činim i ona svjedoče o tomu da me je Otac poslao.
37 I sam je Otac svjedočio za mene. Vi niste nikada čuli njegov glas ni vidjeli njegovo lice.
38 Njegova riječ ne prebiva u vama jer ne vjerujete meni, koga vam je poslao.
39 Vi proučavate Sveto pismo jer mislite da će vam ono dati vječni život. Ono upućuje na mene.
40 A vi ipak nećete doći k meni da biste primili vječni život.
41 Ne primam slave od ljudi
42 jer znam da u sebi nemate Božje ljubavi.
43 Znam to jer sam vam došao u Očevo ime, a vi me odbijate primiti iako vrlo spremno prihvaćate one koji dolaze samo u vlastito ime.
44 Kako biste i mogli vjerovati kad rado primate časti jedni od drugih, a ne marite za to da steknete čast od jedinoga Boga?
45 Neću, međutim, ja biti taj koji će vas zbog toga optužiti pred Ocem. Optužit će vas Mojsije. Da, Mojsije u koga se uzdate.
46 Jer kad biste vjerovali Mojsiju, koji je pisao o meni, vjerovali biste i meni.
47 A kako ne vjerujete onomu što je on napisao, nije čudno da ne vjerujete ni mojim riječima.'
John 5
King James Version
5 After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
3 In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
4 For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
5 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
7 The impotent 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, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
10 The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
11 He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
12 Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?
13 And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.
14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
15 The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.
16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.
17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
20 For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.
21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
31 If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
32 There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
33 Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
34 But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved.
35 He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
36 But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
37 And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
41 I receive not honour from men.
42 But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
43 I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?
45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me; for he wrote of me.
47 But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
John 5
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Jesus Heals on the Sabbath
5 After this 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, in Hebrew called Beth-za′tha,[a] which has five porticoes. 3 In these lay a multitude of invalids, blind, lame, paralyzed.[b] 5 One man was there, who had been ill for thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him and knew that he had been lying there a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be healed?” 7 The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is troubled, and while I am going another steps down before me.” 8 Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your pallet, and walk.” 9 And at once the man was healed, and he took up his pallet and walked.
Now that day was the sabbath. 10 So the Jews said to the man who was cured, “It is the sabbath, it is not lawful for you to carry your pallet.” 11 But he answered them, “The man who healed me said to me, ‘Take up your pallet, and walk.’” 12 They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Take up your pallet, and walk’?” 13 Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, as there was a crowd in the place. 14 Afterward, Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, “See, you are well! Sin no more, that nothing worse befall you.” 15 The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had healed him. 16 And this was why the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did this on the sabbath. 17 But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working still, and I am working.” 18 This was why the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath[c] but also called God his Father, making himself equal with God.
The Authority of the Son
19 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, that the Son does likewise. 20 For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all that he himself is doing; and greater works than these will he show him, that you may marvel. 21 For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom he will. 22 The Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son, 23 that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him. 24 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me, has eternal life; he does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.
25 “Truly, truly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear 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 in himself, 27 and has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man. 28 Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice 29 and come forth, those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.
Witnesses to Jesus
30 “I can do nothing on my own authority; as I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me. 31 If I bear witness to myself, my testimony is not true; 32 there is another who bears witness to me, and I know that the testimony which he bears to me is true. 33 You sent to John, and he has borne witness to the truth. 34 Not that the testimony which I receive is from man; but I say this that you may be saved. 35 He was a burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light. 36 But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has granted me to accomplish, these very works which I am doing, bear me witness that the Father has sent me. 37 And the Father who sent me has himself borne witness to me. His voice you have never heard, his form you have never seen; 38 and you do not have his word abiding in you, for you do not believe him whom he has sent. 39 You search the scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness to me; 40 yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life. 41 I do not receive glory from men. 42 But I know that you have not the love of God within you. 43 I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not receive me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive. 44 How can you believe, who receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God? 45 Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; it is Moses who accuses you, on whom you set your hope. 46 If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote of me. 47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”
