John 5:1-4 (Gospel, At the Blessing of Waters)

1
After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2
Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches.
3
In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water.
4
For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and stirred up the water; then whoever stepped in first, after the stirring of the water, was made well of whatever disease he had.
