When Jesus saw him lying there and knew he had already been there a long time, He said to him, "Do you want to get well?"
John 5:6 In-Context
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.”
8
Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.”
