Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing: for what things soever he doeth, these the Son also doeth in like manner.

So Jesus made answer and said, Truly I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything himself; he is able to do only what he sees the Father doing; whatever the Father does the Son does it in the same way.

Απεκριθη λοιπον ο Ιησους και ειπε προς αυτους· Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω, δεν δυναται ο Υιος να πραττη ουδεν αφ' εαυτου, εαν δεν βλεπη τον Πατερα πραττοντα τουτο· επειδη οσα εκεινος πραττει, ταυτα και ο Υιος πραττει ομοιως.

Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
