The Father and the Son

JHN 5:16

KJV

And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.

BSB

Now because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jews began to persecute Him.

Koinōnos

And for this reason the Jews were persecuting Jesus — because he was doing these things on the Sabbath.

JHN 5:17

KJV

But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.

BSB

But Jesus answered them, “To this very day My Father is at His work, and I too am working.”

Koinōnos

But Jesus answered them, "My Father is working until now, and I am working.

JHN 5:18

KJV

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

BSB

Because of this, the Jews tried all the harder to kill Him. Not only was He breaking the Sabbath, but He was even calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God.

Koinōnos

For this reason, therefore, the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him — not only because he was habitually breaking the Sabbath, but also because he was calling God his own Father, making himself equal to God.

JHN 5:19

KJV

Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

BSB

So Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing by Himself, unless He sees the Father doing it. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does.

Koinōnos

Jesus therefore answered and said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you: the Son can do nothing from himself, except what he sees the Father doing — for whatever that one does, these things the Son likewise does.

JHN 5:20

KJV

For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.

BSB

The Father loves the Son and shows Him all He does. And to your amazement, He will show Him even greater works than these.

Koinōnos

For the Father has fond affection for the Son and shows him everything he himself is doing, and he will show him greater works than these, so that you will marvel.

JHN 5:21

KJV

For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.

BSB

For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom He wishes.

Koinōnos

For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom he wills.

JHN 5:22

KJV

For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

BSB

Furthermore, the Father judges no one, but has assigned all judgment to the Son,

Koinōnos

For neither does the Father judge anyone, but he has given all judgment to the Son,

JHN 5:23

KJV

That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.

BSB

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.

Koinōnos

so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. The one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.

JHN 5:24

KJV

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

BSB

Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not come under judgment. Indeed, he has crossed over from death to life.

Koinōnos

Amen, amen, I say to you: the one who hears my word and believes the one who sent me has eternal life and does not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.

JHN 5:25

KJV

Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.

BSB

Truly, truly, I tell you, the hour is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

Koinōnos

Amen, amen, I say to you: the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

JHN 5:26

KJV

For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;

BSB

For as the Father has life in Himself, so also He has granted the Son to have life in Himself.

Koinōnos

For just as the Father has life in himself, so also he gave to the Son to have life in himself.

JHN 5:27

KJV

And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

BSB

And He has given Him authority to execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man.

Koinōnos

And he gave him authority — both the right and the power — to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man.

JHN 5:28

KJV

Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,

BSB

Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming when all who are in their graves will hear His voice

Koinōnos

Do not be astonished at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the tombs will hear his voice

JHN 5:29

KJV

And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

BSB

and come out—those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.

Koinōnos

and come out — those who did good to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced evil to a resurrection of judgment.

JHN 5:30

KJV

I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.

BSB

I can do nothing by Myself; I judge only as I hear. And My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

Koinōnos

I can do nothing from myself. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of the one who sent me.
