John 5:9-11

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁹ At once the man was made well, and he took up his mat and began to walk.

Now that day was a Sabbath.^{(A) 10} So the Jews said to the man who had been cured, “It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your mat.”^{(B) 11} But he answered them, “The man who made me well said to me, ‘Take up your mat and walk.’ ”
