14. After these things Jesus found him at the temple and said to him, “Look, you have become well! Sin no longer, lest something worse happen to you.”
15. The man went and reported to the Jews that Jesus was the one who made him well.
16. And on account of this the Jews began to persecute Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath.
17. But he answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.”
18. So on account of this the Jews were seeking even more to kill him, because he not only was breaking the Sabbath, but also was calling God his own Father, thus making himself equal with God.
19. So Jesus answered and said to them, “Truly, truly I say to you, the Son can do nothing from himself except what he sees the Father doing. For whatever that one does, these things also the Son does likewise.
