SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 5:1–18: Jesus healed a lame man by a pool on the Sabbath

In this section Jesus healed a lame man who was lying by a pool of water. Because Jesus healed him on a Sabbath day, the Jewish leaders became angry. They believed that healing a person was work and that Jews should not work on the Sabbath.

The man who was healed did not know who had healed him. Then Jesus met this man in the temple. He told him that he should not sin anymore. The healed man went to the Jewish leaders and told them that it was Jesus who had healed him.

Here are some other possibilities for a section heading:

Jesus healed a lame man on the Sabbath.

Jewish leaders criticized Jesus for healing a man on the holy/rest day.

Paragraph 5:8–9b

Jesus told the sick man to pick up his bed and walk. The man obeyed. He was well.

5:8a

Then Jesus told him, “Get up,

¶ Jesus said to the man, “Stand up,
¶ Then Jesus told the lame man, “Get up!

Then Jesus told him: Jesus told the sick man to do three things. In some languages it may be helpful to use a specific verb like “commanded” instead of the more general verb told. For example:

Then Jesus ordered him

Get up: The Greek verb that the BRB translates as Get up is a command. Other ways to translate this include

Stand up (NRSV)

Rise (RSV)

5:8b

pick up your mat, and walk.”

pick up your^(sing) mat and walk.”
Roll up your sleeping mat, and walk/go!”

pick up your mat: The Greek word that the BSB translates as mat refers to a piece of thin material that people slept on. Sometimes people would carry sick or disabled people on a mat. It was something that the sick man in this story could roll up and carry. Jesus wanted the man to pick up the mat and take it with him.

Here is another way to translate this command:

take up your mat

walk: In some languages it may be natural to mention that the man was to take the mat with him. For example:

walk with your mat
