Vangelo secondo Giovanni - John 5

GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Μετα ταυτα ητο εορτην των Ιουδαιων, και ανεβη ο Ιησους εις Ιεροσολυμα.	1 After these things, there was a feast day of the Jews, and so Jesus ascended to Jerusalem.
2 Ειναι δε εν τοις Ιεροσολυμοις πλησιον της προβατικης πυλης κολυμβηθρα, η επονομαζομενη Εβραιστι Βηθεσδα, εχουσα πεντε στοας.	2 Now at Jerusalem is the Pool of Evidence, which in Hebrew is known as the Place of Mercy; it has five porticos.
3 Εν ταυταις κατεκειτο πληθος πολυ των ασθενουντων, τυφλων, χωλων, ξηρων, οιτινες περιεμενον την κινησιν του υδατος.	3 Along these lay a great multitude of the sick, the blind, the lame, and the withered, waiting for the movement of the water.
4 Διοτι αγγελος κατεβαινε κατα καιρον εις την κολυμβηθραν και εταραττε το υδωρ? οστις λοιπον εισηρχετο πρωτος μετα την ταραχην του υδατος, εγινετο υγιης απο οποιανδηποτε νοσον επασχεν.	4 Now at times an Angel of the Lord would descend into the pool, and so the water was moved. And whoever descended first into the pool, after the motion of the water, he was healed of whatever infirmity held him.
5 Ητο δε εκει ανθρωπος τις τριακοντα οκτω ετη πασχων ασθενειαν.	5 And there was a certain man in that place, having been in his infirmity for thirty-eight years.
6 Τουτον ιδων ο Ιησους κατακειμενον, και εξευρων οτι πολυν ηδη καιρον πασχει, λεγει προς αυτον? Θελεις να γεινης υγιης;	6 Then, when Jesus had seen him reclining, and when he realized that he had been afflicted for a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be healed?”
7 Απεκριθη προς αυτον ο ασθενων? Κυριε, ανθρωπον δεν εχω, δια να με βαλη εις την κολυμβηθραν, οταν ταραχθη το υδωρ? ενω δε ερχομαι εγω, αλλος προ εμου καταβαινει.	7 The invalid answered him: “Lord, I do not have any man to put me in the pool, when the water has been stirred. For as I am going, another descends ahead of me.”
8 Λεγει προς αυτον ο Ιησους? Εγερθητι, σηκωσον τον κραββατον σου και περιπατει.	8 Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your stretcher, and walk.”
9 Και ευθυς εγεινεν ο ανθρωπος υγιης και εσηκωσε τον κραββατον αυτου, και περιεπατει. Ητο δε σαββατον εκεινην την ημεραν.	9 And immediately the man was healed. And he took up his stretcher and walked. Now this day was the Sabbath.
10 Ελεγον λοιπον οι Ιουδαιοι προς τον τεθεραπευμενον? Σαββατον ειναι? Δεν σοι ειναι συγκεχωρημενον να σηκωσης τον κραββατον.	10 Therefore, the Jews said to the one who had been healed: “It is the Sabbath. It is not lawful for you to take up your stretcher.”
11 Απεκριθη προς αυτους? Ο ιατρευσας με, εκεινος μοι ειπε? Σηκωσον τον κραββατον σου, και περιπατει.	11 He answered them, “The one who healed me, he said to me, ‘Take up your stretcher and walk.’ ”
12 Ηρωτησαν λοιπον αυτον? Τις ειναι ο ανθρωπος, οστις σοι ειπε, Σηκωσον τον κραββατον σου και περιπατει;	12 Therefore, they questioned him, “Who is that man, who said to you, ‘Take up your bed and walk?’ ”
13 Ο δε ιατρευθεις δεν ηξευρε τις ειναι? διοτι ο Ιησους υπεξηλθεν, επειδη ητο οχλος πολυς εν τω τοπω.	13 But the one who had been given health did not know who it was. For Jesus had turned aside from the crowd gathered in that place.
14 Μετα ταυτα ευρισκει αυτον ο Ιησους εν τω ιερω και ειπε προς αυτον? Ιδου, εγεινες υγιης? μηκετι αμαρτανε, δια να μη σοι γεινη τι χειροτερον.	14 Afterwards, Jesus found him in the temple, and he said to him: “Behold, you have been healed. Do not choose to sin further, otherwise something worse may happen to you.”
15 Υπηγε λοιπον ο ανθρωπος και ανηγγειλε προς τους Ιουδαιους οτι ο Ιησους ειναι ο ιατρευσας αυτον.	15 This man went away, and he reported to the Jews that it was Jesus who had given him health.
16 Και δια τουτο κατετρεχον τον Ιησουν οι Ιουδαιοι και εζητουν να θανατωσωσιν αυτον, διοτι εκαμνε ταυτα εν σαββατω.	16 Because of this, the Jews were persecuting Jesus, for he was doing these things on the Sabbath.
17 Ο δε Ιησους απεκριθη προς αυτους? Ο Πατηρ μου εργαζεται εως τωρα, και εγω εργαζομαι.	17 But Jesus answered them, “Even now, my Father is working, and I am working.”
18 Δια τουτο λοιπον μαλλον εζητουν οι Ιουδαιοι να θανατωσωσιν αυτον, διοτι ουχι μονον παρεβαινε το σαββατον, αλλα και Πατερα εαυτου ελεγε τον Θεον, ισον με τον Θεον καμνων εαυτον.	18 And so, because of this, the Jews were seeking to kill him even more so. For not only did he break the Sabbath, but he even said that God was his Father, making himself equal to God.
19 Απεκριθη λοιπον ο Ιησους και ειπε προς αυτους? Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω, δεν δυναται ο Υιος να πραττη ουδεν αφ' εαυτου, εαν δεν βλεπη τον Πατερα πραττοντα τουτο? επειδη οσα εκεινος πραττει, ταυτα και ο Υιος πραττει ομοιως.	19 Then Jesus responded and said to them: “Amen, amen, I say to you, the Son is not able to do anything of himself, but only what he has seen the Father doing. For whatever he does, even this does the Son do, similarly.
20 Διοτι ο Πατηρ αγαπα τον Υιον και δεικνυει εις αυτον παντα οσα αυτος πραττει, και μεγαλητερα τουτων εργα θελει δειξει εις αυτον, δια να θαυμαζητε σεις.	20 For the Father loves the Son, and he shows him all that he himself does. And greater works than these will he show him, so much so that you shall wonder.
21 Επειδη καθως ο Πατηρ εγειρει τους νεκρους και ζωοποιει, ουτω και ο Υιος ουστινας θελει ζωοποιει.	21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives life, so also does the Son give life to whomever he wills.
22 Επειδη ουδε κρινει ο Πατηρ ουδενα, αλλ' εις τον Υιον εδωκε πασαν την κρισιν,	22 For the Father does not judge anyone. But he has given all judgment to the Son,
23 δια να τιμωσι παντες τον Υιον καθως τιμωσι τον Πατερα. Ο μη τιμων τον Υιον δεν τιμα τον Πατερα τον πεμψαντα αυτον.	23 so that all may honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son, does not honor the Father who sent him.
24 Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω οτι ο ακουων τον λογον μου και πιστευων εις τον πεμψαντα με εχει ζωην αιωνιον, και εις κρισιν δεν ερχεται, αλλα μετεβη εκ του θανατου εις την ζωην.	24 Amen, amen, I say to you, that whoever hears my word, and believes in him who sent me, has eternal life, and he does not go into judgment, but instead he crosses from death into life.
25 Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω οτι ερχεται ωρα, και ηδη ειναι, οτε οι νεκροι θελουσιν ακουσει την φωνην του Υιου του Θεου, και οι ακουσαντες θελουσι ζησει.	25 Amen, amen, I say to you, that the hour is coming, and it is now, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear it shall live.
26 Διοτι καθως ο Πατηρ εχει ζωην εν εαυτω, ουτως εδωκε και εις τον Υιον να εχη ζωην εν εαυτω?	26 For just as the Father has life in himself, so also has he granted to the Son to have life in himself.
27 και εξουσιαν εδωκεν εις αυτον να καμνη και κρισιν, διοτι ειναι Υιος ανθρωπου.	27 And he has given him the authority to accomplish judgment. For he is the Son of man.
28 Μη θαυμαζετε τουτο? διοτι ερχεται ωρα, καθ' ην παντες οι εν τοις μνημειοις θελουσιν ακουσει την φωνην αυτου,	28 Do not be amazed at this. For the hour is coming in which all who are in the grave shall hear the voice of the Son of God.
29 και θελουσιν εξελθει οι πραξαντες τα αγαθα εις αναστασιν ζωης, οι δε πραξαντες τα φαυλα εις αναστασιν κρισεως.	29 And those who have done good shall go forth to the resurrection of life. Yet truly, those who have done evil shall go to the resurrection of judgment.
30 Δεν δυναμαι εγω να καμνω απ' εμαυτου ουδεν. Καθως ακουω κρινω, και η κρισις η εμη δικαια ειναι? διοτι δεν ζητω το θελημα το εμον, αλλα το θελημα του πεμψαντος με Πατρος.	30 I am not able to do anything of myself. As I hear, so do I judge. And my judgment is just. For I do not seek my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
31 Εαν εγω μαρτυρω περι εμαυτου, η μαρτυρια μου δεν ειναι αληθης.	31 If I offer testimony about myself, my testimony is not true.
32 Αλλος ειναι ο μαρτυρων περι εμου, και εξευρω οτι ειναι αληθης η μαρτυρια, την οποιαν μαρτυρει περι εμου.	32 There is another who offers testimony about me, and I know that the testimony which he offers about me is true.
33 Σεις απεστειλατε προς τον Ιωαννην, και εμαρτυρησεν εις την αληθειαν?	33 You sent to John, and he offered testimony to the truth.
34 εγω δε παρα ανθρωπου δεν λαμβανω την μαρτυριαν, αλλα λεγω ταυτα δια να σωθητε σεις.	34 But I do not accept testimony from man. Instead, I say these things, so that you may be saved.
35 Εκεινος ητο ο λυχνος ο καιομενος και φεγγων, και σεις ηθελησατε να αγαλλιασθητε προς ωραν εις το φως αυτου.	35 He was a burning and shining light. So you were willing, at the time, to exult in his light.
36 Αλλ' εγω εχω την μαρτυριαν μεγαλητεραν της του Ιωαννου? διοτι τα εργα, τα οποια μοι εδωκεν ο Πατηρ δια να τελειωσω αυτα, αυτα τα εργα, τα οποια εγω πραττω, μαρτυρουσι περι εμου οτι ο Πατηρ με απεστειλε?	36 But I hold a greater testimony than that of John. For the works which the Father has given to me, so that I may complete them, these works themselves that I do, offer testimony about me: that the Father has sent me.
37 και ο πεμψας με Πατηρ, αυτος εμαρτυρησε περι εμου. Ουτε φωνην αυτου ηκουσατε πωποτε ουτε οψιν αυτου ειδετε.	37 And the Father who has sent me has himself offered testimony about me. And you have never heard his voice, nor have you beheld his appearance.
38 Και τον λογον αυτου δεν εχετε μενοντα εν εαυτοις, διοτι σεις δεν πιστευετε εις τουτον, τον οποιον εκεινος απεστειλεν.	38 And you do not have his word abiding in you. For the one whom he sent, the same you would not believe.
39 Ερευνατε τας γραφας, διοτι σεις νομιζετε οτι εν αυταις εχετε ζωην αιωνιον? και εκειναι ειναι αι μαρτυρουσαι περι εμου?	39 Study the Scriptures. For you think that in them you have eternal life. And yet they also offer testimony about me.
40 πλην δεν θελετε να ελθητε προς εμε, δια να εχητε ζωην.	40 And you are not willing to come to me, so that you may have life.
41 Δοξαν παρα ανθρωπων δεν λαμβανω?	41 I do not accept glory from men.
42 αλλα σας εγνωρισα οτι την αγαπην του Θεου δεν εχετε εν εαυτοις?	42 But I know you, that you do not have the love of God within you.
43 εγω ηλθον εν τω ονοματι του Πατρος μου, και δεν με δεχεσθε? εαν αλλος ελθη εν τω ονοματι εαυτου, εκεινον θελετε δεχθη.	43 I have come in the name of my Father, and you do not accept me. If another will arrive in his own name, him you will accept.
44 Πως δυνασθε σεις να πιστευσητε, οιτινες λαμβανετε δοξαν ο εις παρα του αλλου, και δεν ζητειτε την δοξαν την παρα του μονου Θεου;	44 How are you able to believe, you who accept glory from one another and yet do not seek the glory that is from God alone?
45 Μη νομιζετε οτι εγω θελω σας κατηγορησει προς τον Πατερα? υπαρχει ο κατηγορος σας ο Μωυσης, εις τον οποιον σεις ηλπισατε.	45 Do not consider that I might accuse you with the Father. There is one who accuses you, Moses, in whom you hope.
46 Διοτι εαν επιστευετε εις τον Μωυσην, ηθελετε πιστευσει εις εμε? επειδη περι εμου εκεινος εγραψεν.	46 For if you were believing in Moses, perhaps you would believe in me also. For he wrote about me.
47 Εαν δε εις τα γεγραμμενα εκεινου δεν πιστευητε, πως θελετε πιστευσει εις τους ιδικους μου λογους;	47 But if you do not believe by his writings, how will you believe by my words?”
