5. One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years.
6. When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been ill for a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be well?”
7. The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; while I am on my way, someone else gets down there before me.”
8. Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your mat, and walk.”
