聖書はイエスを指し示す
5 その後、ユダヤ人の祭りがあったので、イエスはエルサレムに戻られました。 2 エルサレム市内には、羊の門の近くにベテスダという池がありました。池の回りには、屋根つきの五つの廊下があります。 3 そこに、足の不自由な人、盲人、手足のまひした人など、大ぜいの病人が横たわっていました。この人たちは、水面が揺れ動くのを待っていたのです。 4 というのは、時たま天使が降りて来て水をかき回すことがあり、そのとき最初に池に入った人は、病気が治ったからです。 5 その中に、三十八年間も病気で苦しんでいる男がいました。 6 イエスはこの男をごらんになり、彼が長い間どんなに苦しんできたかを知って、「よくなりたいですか」とお尋ねになりました。 7 「もう、あきらめているんです。せっかく水が動いても、だれも池に入れてはくれないんだから。何とかして行こうとしている間に、いつでもほかの人が先に入ってしまうのです。」 8 「さあ、立って、床をたたんで家に帰りなさい。」 9 イエスがこう言われると、たちまち男は治って、すぐに床をたたんで歩きだしたのです。
ところがこの奇跡が行われたのが安息日（神の定めた休息日）だったので、 10 ユダヤ人の指導者たちはひどく腹を立て、その男を責めました。「安息日に労働するとはけしからん。床を上げて運んだりするのは違反だ！」 11 「でも、私を治してくださった方が、そうしろとおっしゃったんです。」 12 「そんなことを言ったのはだれだ！」彼らは問い詰めましたが、 13 男にも、だれだかわかりません。イエスはすでに、人ごみに姿を消しておられたからです。 14 しばらくして、イエスは宮でその男を見つけ、声をおかけになりました。「どうですか、すっかりよくなったでしょう。もう前のように罪を犯してはいけませんよ。そうでないと、もっとひどい目に会うかもしれませんから。」 15 男はユダヤ人の指導者たちを捜し出し、治してくれたのはイエスだと告げました。 16 ユダヤ人の指導者たちは、イエスを安息日の違反者だとして、しつこく攻撃を始めました。 17 ところが、イエスはお答えになりました。「わたしの父は、絶えず良い働きをしておられます。わたしはその模範にならっているのです。」 18 これを聞いたユダヤ人の指導者たちは、ますます、イエスを殺そうと思うようになりました。イエスが安息日のおきてを破ったばかりか、事もあろうに神を「父」と呼んで、自分を神と等しい者としたからです。
19 イエスはお答えになりました。「よく言っておきます。子は自分からは何もできません。ただ父がしておられることを見て、同じようにするだけです。 20 父は子を愛して、自分のすることは何でも子に教えてくださるのです。神の子は、病気を治すということなどとは比べものにならない驚くべき奇跡を行います。 21 父が死人を生き返らせるように、子も、思うままに人を死人の中から生き返らせもするのです。 22 父は、罪のさばきをいっさい子に任せておられます。 23 すべての者が父を敬うように、子をも敬うためです。だから、父なる神がお遣わしになった神の子を敬わないのは、父を敬わないのに等しいのです。 24 よく言っておきます。わたしの言うことを聞き、わたしを遣わされた神を信じる人にはだれでも、永遠のいのちがあります。罪のために罰せられることは絶対にありません。すでに死からいのちに移っているのです。 25 はっきり告げましょう。死人が神の子であるわたしの声を聞く時が、もうすぐ来ます。いや、もう来ているのです。そして、聞いた者は生きます。 26 父がご自分のいのちを、子にも与えてくださったからです。 27 また、全人類の罪をさばく権威も下さいました。それもみな、子がメシヤだからです。 28 驚いてはいけません。墓の中の死人がみな、神の子の声を聞く時が来ます。 29 その時、彼らは復活します。良いことをしてきた者は永遠のいのちをいただくために、悪いことをし続けてきた者はさばきを受けるためにです。
30 しかしわたしは、父と相談もせずにさばいたりはしません。ただ言われるとおりにさばくだけです。ですから、わたしのさばきは絶対に公平で正しいのです。自分の考えだけによらず、わたしを遣わされた神の意思に従ってさばくからです。 31 わたしが自分について証言しても、だれも信じないでしょう。 32 しかし、わたしのことを証言してくださる方がほかにおられます。その方の証言はまちがいなく真実です。 33 あなたがたは、バプテスマのヨハネの教えを聞こうとわざわざ出かけて行きました。確かに、ヨハネがわたしについて証言したことはほんとうのことです。 34 しかし、わたしについての最高の証言は、人間による証言ではありません。ただ、ヨハネが証言していたことを思い出せば、あなたがたもわたしを信じて救われるかもしれないと願って、ヨハネのことを話しているのです。 35 ヨハネはしばらくの間、ひときわ明るく輝き、あなたがたもそれを喜びました。 36 しかしわたしには、ヨハネの証言よりも、もっとすぐれた証言があります。それは、わたしの行う奇跡です。これらの奇跡は、父がわたしに託されたもので、父がわたしをお遣わしになったという動かぬ証拠なのです。 37 また、父ご自身は直接あなたがたに姿を現したり、語りかけたりはなさいませんが、わたしのことを証言しておられます。 38 ところが、あなたがたは父のことばを聞こうともしません。神のことづけを伝えるために遣わされたわたしを信じないのですから。
39 あなたがたは、永遠のいのちを見つけようと熱心に聖書を調べています。その聖書がわたしを指し示しているのです。 40 それなのにあなたがたは、わたしのところに来ようとはしません。だから永遠のいのちを受けることができないのです。 41-42 あなたがたがわたしを認めなくてもかまいません。あなたがたのうちには神の愛がないのですから。 43 わたしは父の代理として来たのに、あなたがたは喜んで迎えてはくれません。それどころか、自分の権威で来るほかの者は、手をたたいて迎えるのです。 44 もっとも、あなたがたが信じられないのもむりはありません。互いにほめ合ったり、ほめられたりすることは喜んでも、ただ一人の神からほめていただくことには関心がないのですから。 45 しかし、このことであなたがたを父に訴えるのはわたしではありません。それはモーセです。あなたがたはモーセの律法にひたすら天国への望みをかけていますが、律法を与えた当のモーセがあなたがたを訴えるのです。 46 それもみな、あなたがたがほんとうはモーセを信じていないからです。なぜなら、モーセはわたしのことを書いたのです。そのモーセを信じないなら、わたしをも信じないのです。 47 モーセの書を信じないくらいだから、わたしのことばを信じないのも不思議はありません。」

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)

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?
