Evangelium secundum Ioannem

Ioannem, chapter 5, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 5 Vulgate

   1 Post haec erat dies festus Iu daeorum, et ascendit Iesus Hie rosolymam.
   2 Est autem Hierosolymis, super Probatica, piscina, quae cognominatur Hebraice Bethsatha, quinque porticus habens.
   3 In his iacebat multitudo languentium, caecorum, claudorum, aridorum.
   04
   5 Erat autem quidam homo ibi triginta et octo annos habens in infirmitate sua.
   6 Hunc cum vidisset Iesus iacentem, et cognovisset quia multum iam tempus habet, dicit ei: "Vis sanus fieri?".
   7 Respondit ei languidus: "Domine, hominem non habeo, ut, cum turbata fuerit aqua, mittat me in piscinam; dum autem venio ego, alius ante me descendit".
   8 Dicit ei Iesus: "Surge, tolle grabatum tuum et ambula".
   9 Et statim sanus factus est homo et sustulit grabatum suum et ambulabat. Erat autem sabbatum in illo die.
   10 Dicebant ergo Iudaei illi, qui sanatus fuerat: "Sabbatum est, et non licet tibi tollere grabatum tuum".
   11 Ille autem respondit eis: "Qui me fecit sanum, ille mihi dixit: "Tolle grabatum tuum et ambula" ".
   12 Interrogaverunt eum: "Quis est ille homo, qui dixit tibi: "Tolle et ambula"?".
   13 Is autem, qui sanus fuerat effectus, nesciebat quis esset; Iesus enim declinavit a turba constituta in loco.
   14 Postea invenit eum Iesus in templo et dixit illi: "Ecce sanus factus es; iam noli peccare, ne deterius tibi aliquid contingat".
   15 Abiit ille homo et nuntiavit Iudaeis quia Iesus esset, qui fecit eum sanum.
   16 Et propterea persequebantur Iudaei Iesum, quia haec faciebat in sabbato.
   17 Iesus autem respondit eis: "Pater meus usque modo operatur, et ego operor".
   18 Propterea ergo magis quaerebant eum Iudaei interficere, quia non solum solvebat sabbatum, sed et Patrem suum dicebat Deum, aequalem se faciens Deo.
   19 Respondit itaque Iesus et dixit eis: "Amen, amen dico vobis: Non potest Filius a se facere quidquam, nisi quod viderit Patrem facientem; quaecumque enim ille faciat, haec et Filius similiter facit.
   20 Pater enim diligit Filium et omnia demonstrat ei, quae ipse facit, et maiora his demonstrabit ei opera, ut vos miremini.
   21 Sicut enim Pater suscitat mortuos et vivificat, sic et Filius, quos vult, vivificat.
   22 Neque enim Pater iudicat quemquam, sed iudicium omne dedit Filio,
   23 ut omnes honorificent Filium, sicut honorificant Patrem. Qui non honorificat Filium, non honorificat Patrem, qui misit illum.
   24 Amen, amen dico vobis: Qui verbum meum audit et credit ei, qui misit me, habet vitam aeternam et in iudicium non venit, sed transiit a morte in vitam.
   25 Amen, amen dico vobis: Venit hora, et nunc est, quando mortui audient vocem Filii Dei et, qui audierint, vivent.
   26 Sicut enim Pater habet vitam in semetipso, sic dedit et Filio vitam habere in semetipso;
   27 et potestatem dedit ei iudicium facere, quia Filius hominis est.
   28 Nolite mirari hoc, quia venit hora, in qua omnes, qui in monumentis sunt, audient vocem eius;
   29 et procedent, qui bona fecerunt, in resurrectionem vitae, qui vero mala egerunt, in resurrectionem iudicii.
   30 Non possum ego a meipso facere quidquam; sicut audio, iudico, et iudicium meum iustum est, quia non quaero voluntatem meam, sed voluntatem eius, qui misit me.
   31 Si ego testimonium perhibeo de meipso, testimonium meum non est verum;
   32 alius est, qui testimonium perhibet de me, et scio quia verum est testimonium, quod perhibet de me.
   33 Vos misistis ad Ioannem, et testimonium perhibuit veritati;
   34 ego autem non ab homine testimonium accipio, sed haec dico, ut vos salvi sitis.
   35 Ille erat lucerna ardens et lucens; vos autem voluistis exsultare ad horam in luce eius.
   36 Ego autem habeo testimonium maius Ioanne; opera enim, quae dedit mihi Pater, ut perficiam ea, ipsa opera, quae ego facio, testimonium perhibent de me, quia Pater me misit;
   37 et, qui misit me, Pater, ipse testimonium perhibuit de me. Neque vocem eius umquam audistis neque speciem eius vidistis;
   38 et verbum eius non habetis in vobis manens, quia, quem misit ille, huic vos non creditis.
   39 Scrutamini Scripturas, quia vos putatis in ipsis vitam aeternam habere; et illae sunt, quae testimonium perhibent de me.
   40 Et non vultis venire ad me, ut vitam habeatis.
   41 Gloriam ab hominibus non accipio,
   42 sed cognovi vos, quia dilectionem Dei non habetis in vobis.
   43 Ego veni in nomine Patris mei, et non accipitis me; si alius venerit in nomine suo, illum accipietis.
   44 Quomodo potestis vos credere, qui gloriam ab invicem accipitis, et gloriam, quae a solo est Deo, non quaeritis?
   45 Nolite putare quia ego accusaturus sim vos apud Patrem; est qui accuset vos: Moyses, in quo vos speratis.
   46 Si enim crederetis Moysi, crederetis forsitan et mihi; de me enim ille scripsit.
   47 Si autem illius litteris non creditis, quomodo meis verbis credetis?".

King James Version

   1 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?
