John 5:2-4

Holman Christian Standard Bible

² By the Sheep Gate^(A) in Jerusalem there is a pool, called Bethesda^[a] in Hebrew, which has five colonnades.^{[b] 3} Within these lay a large number of the sick—blind, lame, and paralyzed [—waiting for the moving of the water, ⁴ because an angel would go down into the pool from time to time and stir up the water. Then the first one who got in after the water was stirred up recovered from whatever ailment he had].^[c]
