John 5:6 in Context — John 5

4 Porque un ángel descendía á cierto tiempo al estanque, y revolvía el agua; y el que primero descendía en el estanque después del movimiento del agua, era sano de cualquier enfermedad que tuviese.

5 Y estaba allí un hombre que había treinta y ocho años que estaba enfermo.

6 Como Jesús vió á éste echado, y entendió que ya había mucho tiempo, dícele: ¿Quieres ser sano?

7 Señor, le respondió el enfermo, no tengo hombre que me meta en el estanque cuando el agua fuere revuelta; porque entre tanto que yo vengo, otro antes de mí ha descendido.

8 Dícele Jesús: Levántate, toma tu lecho, y anda.
