"Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” JOHN 5:1-15

1. JOHN 5:1-15
The Healing at the Pool
1
Some time later, Jesus went up to
Jerusalem for a feast of the Jews. 2
Now
there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate
a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda
and which is surrounded by five covered
colonnades. 3
Here a great number of
disabled people used to lie--the blind, the
lame, the paralyzed.

2. 5
One who was there had been an
invalid for thirty-eight years. 6
When
Jesus saw him lying there and learned
that he had been in this condition for a
long time, he asked him, "Do you want
to get well?" 7
"Sir," the invalid replied,
"I have no one to help me into the pool
when the water is stirred. While I am
trying to get in, someone else goes
down ahead of me."

3. 8
Then Jesus said to him, "Get up!
Pick up your mat and walk." 9
At
once the man was cured; he
picked up his mat and walked. The
day on which this took place was a
Sabbath, 10
and so the Jews said to
the man who had been healed, "It
is the Sabbath; the law forbids you
to carry your mat."

4. 11
But he replied, "The man who
made me well said to me, `Pick up
your mat and walk.'" 12
So they
asked him, "Who is this fellow who
told you to pick it up and walk?"
13
The man who was healed had no
idea who it was, for Jesus had
slipped away into the crowd that
was there.

5. 14
Later Jesus found him at the
temple and said to him, "See,
you are well again. Stop sinning
or something worse may
happen to you." 15
The man went
away and told the Jews that it
was Jesus who had made him
well.

6. JUAN 5:1-15
Ang Pagpapagaling sa Bethzata
1 Pagkaraan nito'y pumunta si Jesus sa
Jerusalem upang dumalo sa isang pista ng
mga Judio. 2 Sa lunsod na ito na malapit
sa Pintuan ng mga Tupa ay may malaking
deposito ng tubig na may limang portiko.
Kung tawagin ito sa wikang Hebreo ay
Bethzata. a 3-4 Nasa paligid nito ang
maraming maysakit, mga bulag, mga pilay,
at mga paralitiko.

7. 5 May isang lalaki doon na tatlumpu't
walong taon nang may sakit. 6 Nakita
siya ni Jesus at alam niyang matagal
nang may sakit ang lalaki kaya't
tinanong niya ito, Gusto mo bang
gumaling?
7 Sumagot ang maysakit,
Ginoo, wala pong maglusong sa akin
kapag gumalaw na ang tubig; papunta
pa lamang ako, may nauuna na sa akin.

8. 8 Sinabi sa kanya ni Jesus, Tumayo ka,
buhatin mo ang iyong higaan at lumakad
ka. 9Noon di'y gumaling ang lalaki,
binuhat ang kanyang higaan, at
lumakad.
Noo'y Araw ng Pamamahinga 10
kaya't sinabi ng mga pinuno ng mga
Judio sa lalaking pinagaling, Araw ng
Pamamahinga ngayon! Labag sa
Kautusan na dalhin mo ang iyong
higaan.

9. 11 Ngunit sumagot siya, Ang nagpagaling
po sa akin ang nagsabing buhatin ko ang
aking higaan at lumakad ako.
12 At siya'y tinanong nila, Sino
ang nagsabi sa iyong buhatin mo ang iyong
higaan at lumakad ka? 13 Ngunit hindi
alam ng lalaki kung sino ang nagpagaling
sa kanya, sapagkat nawala na si Jesus sa
karamihan ng tao.

10. 14 Pagkatapos nito, nakita ni Jesus sa loob
ng Templo ang lalaki at sinabihan itong,
Magaling ka na ngayon! Huwag ka nang
gumawa ng kasalanan at baka masahol pa
riyan ang mangyari sa iyo.
15 Umalis ang lalaki at sinabi sa
mga Judio na si Jesus ang nagpagaling sa
kanya. 16 Dahil dito, si Jesus ay sinimulang
usigin ng mga pinuno ng mga Judio,
sapagkat nagpagaling siya sa Araw ng
Pamamahinga.

11. JOHN 5:8
8
Then Jesus said to
him, "Get up! Pick
up your mat and
walk.”
