John 5:13-18 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

13. But the man who had been healed did not know who it was. There were many people there, and Jesus had left.

14. Later, Jesus found the man at the Temple and said to him, “See, you are well now. But stop sinning or something worse may happen to you!”

15. Then the man left and went back to the Jews who questioned him. He told them that Jesus was the one who made him well.

16. Jesus was doing all this on the Sabbath day. So these Jews began trying to make him stop.

17. But he said to them, “My Father never stops working, and so I work too.”

18. This made them even more determined to kill him. They thought it was bad enough that he was breaking the law about the Sabbath day. And now he was saying that God is his Father, making himself equal with God!
