John 5:16-18

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁶ And for this reason the Jews persecuted Jesus and sought to kill him: because he had done these things on a sabbath.

¹⁷ ¶ But Jesus answered them, My Father works until now, and I work.

¹⁸ Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
