5:10 So the Jewish leaders ¹⁸  said to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath, and you are not permitted to carry your mat.” ¹⁹  5:11 But he answered them, “The man who made me well said to me, ‘Pick up your mat ²⁰  and walk.’” 5:12 They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Pick up your mat ²¹  and walk’?” ²²  5:13 But the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped out, since there was a crowd in that place.

5:14 After this Jesus found him at the temple and said to him, “Look, you have become well. Don’t sin any more, ²³  lest anything worse happen to you.” 5:15 The man went away and informed the Jewish leaders ²⁴  that Jesus was the one who had made him well.

5:16 Now because Jesus was doing these things ²⁵  on the Sabbath, the Jewish leaders ²⁶  began persecuting ²⁷  him. 5:17 So he ²⁸  told ²⁹  them, “My Father is working until now, and I too am working.” ³⁰  5:18 For this reason the Jewish leaders ³¹  were trying even harder to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was also calling God his own Father, thus making himself equal with God.
