John 5:12-18 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

12. Therefore they asked him, “Who is the Man who said to you, ‘Take up your bed and walk’?”

13. But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for יהושע had moved away, a crowd being in that place.

14. Afterward יהושע found him in the Set-apart Place, and said to him, “See, you have been made well. Sin no more, so that no worse matter befalls you.”

15. The man went away, and told the Yehuḏim that it was יהושע who made him well.

16. And because of this the Yehuḏim persecuted יהושע, and were seeking to kill Him, because He was doing these healings on the Sabbath.

17. But יהושע answered them, “My Father works until now, and I work.”

18. Because of this, then, the Yehuḏim were seeking all the more to kill Him, ‘because not only was He breaking the Sabbath, but He also called Elohim His own Father, making Himself equal with Elohim.’
