Tree Of Life Version

John 5:5-15 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

5. Now a certain man had been an invalid there for thirty-eight years.

6. Seeing him lying there and knowing he had been that way a long time, Yeshua said to him, “Do you want to get well?”

7. The invalid answered Him, “Sir, I have nobody to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up. While I’m trying to get in, somebody else steps down before me!”

8. Yeshua tells him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk!”

9. Immediately, the man was healed! He took up his mat and started walking around. Now that day was Shabbat,

10. so Judean leaders were saying to the man who was healed, “It’s Shabbat! It’s not permitted for you to carry your mat.”

11. But he answered them, “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, ‘Pick up your mat and walk’?”

13. But the man who had been healed didn’t know who it was, for Yeshua had slipped away into the crowd in that place.

14. Afterwards, Yeshua finds him in the Temple. He said to him, “Look, you’ve been healed! Stop sinning, so nothing worse happens to you.”

15. The man left and told the Judean leaders that it was Yeshua who had made him well.
