John 5:16-18 And because of this, the Jews persecuted Jesus and lusted to kill Him, because He did these things on a sabbath.

LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ And because of this, the Jews persecuted Jesus and lusted to kill Him, because He did these things on a sabbath. ¹⁷ But Jesus answered them, My Father works until now, and I work. ¹⁸ Because of this, therefore, the Jews lusted the more to kill Him, for not only did He break the sabbath, but also called God His own Father, making Himself equal to God.
