9. Immediately the man was well. He picked up his mat and started walking. The day all this happened was a Sabbath day.
10. So some Jews said to the man who had been healed, “Today is the Sabbath. It is against our law for you to carry your mat on the Sabbath day.”
11. But he answered, “The man who made me well told me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’”
12. They asked him, “Who is the man who told you to pick up your mat and walk?”
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.”
