JESUS IS ENTERTAINED BY MATTHEW.

Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he, 'knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Why reason ye these things? wherefore think ye evil in your hearts? *Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk? But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house. "And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God. "But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men; 7and were filled with fear, saying, "We never saw it on this fashion: 9 we have seen strange things to day.

And when the Scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they murmured against his disciples, saying, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners ?

'And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast often, and make prayers, but thy disciples fast not, (they)-eat and drink? And Jesus said unto them, "Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.

And he spake also a parable unto them: "No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse, and the piece that was taken out of the new agreeth not with the old. And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish. But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved. No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old is better.

SECTION 23.-(65) On the approach of the second passover, Jesus goes up to Jerusalem-(66) he heals a sick man at the pool of Bethesda on the sabbath day--(67) for which supposed breach of the sabbath the Jews thenceforward go about to kill him. Discourse of Jesus in defence of what he had done. JOHN V.

Jerusalem.

1 AFTER this there was a feast of the Jews; and Nos. 65, 66, 67. 2 Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep-market a pool, which is called in 3 the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches. In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, 4 withered, waiting for the moving of the water.

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 5 disease he had. And a certain man was there, which had 6 an infirmity thirty-and-eight years. When Jesus saw him

lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that 7 case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole? 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 8 coming, another steppeth down before me. 9 unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. diately the man was made whole, and took up walked and on the same day was the sabbath.

THE SICK MAN AT THE POOL OF BETHESDA.

The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is 10 the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed. He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said 11 unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk. Then asked they 12 him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk? And he that was healed wist not who it 13 was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place. Afterward Jesus findeth him in the 14 temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee. The man 15 departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole. And therefore did the Jews persecute 10 Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.

But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, 17 and I work. Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill 18 him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, 19 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. For the 20 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. For as the Father raiseth up 21 the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. For the Father judgeth no man, but hath 22 committed all judgment unto the Son: that all men should 23 honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that 24 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. Verily, verily, I say unto 25 you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall

JESUS DISCOURSES WITH THE JEWS.

hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall 26 live. For as the Father hath life in himself, so hath he 27 given to the Son to have life in himself; and hath given

him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the 28 Son of man. 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 30 resurrection of damnation. 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 33 that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true. Ye 34 sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.

:

But

I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, 35 that ye might be saved. He was a burning and a shining light and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his 36 light. 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 37 hath sent me. And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his 38 voice at any time, nor seen his shape. 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 40 eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

43 the love of God in you.

And

41 ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. I receive 42 not honour from men. But I know you, that ye have not I am come in my Father's name, another shall come in his own How can ye believe, which

and ye receive me not: if 44 name, him ye will receive.
