john
4:43–54
43When
the two days were over, he went from that place to Galilee 44(for
Jesus himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in the prophet’s own
country). 45When he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him,
since they had seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the festival; for they
too had gone to the festival.
46Then he came again to Cana in Galilee where he had changed the water
into wine. Now there was a royal official whose son lay ill in Capernaum. 47When
he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went and begged him to
come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. 48Then
Jesus said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe.” 49The
official said to him, “Sir, come down before my little boy dies.” 50Jesus
said to him, “Go; your son will live.” The man believed the word that Jesus
spoke to him and started on his way. 51As he was going down, his
slaves met him and told him that his child was alive. 52So he asked
them the hour when he began to recover, and they said to him, “Yesterday at one
in the afternoon the fever left him.” 53The father realized that
this was the hour when Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” So he
himself believed, along with his whole household. 54Now this was the
second sign that Jesus did after coming from Judea to Galilee.
