John 4:43-53

⁴³After the two days, He departed from there and went to Galilee,

⁴⁴for Jesus Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

⁴⁵When He arrived in Galilee, the Galileans welcomed Him. They had seen all that He had done in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, for they had been there, too.

⁴⁶Therefore He came back to Cana of Galilee, where He had made the water wine. There was a certain royal official, whose son was sick at Capernaum.

⁴⁷When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and begged Him to come down and heal his son, who was at the point of death.

⁴⁸Jesus told him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will never believe.”

⁴⁹The royal official said to Him, “Sir, come down before my child dies!”

⁵⁰Jesus told him, “Go in peace. Your son lives.” So the man believed the words that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.

⁵¹As he was still going down the road, his servants met him, saying that his son was living.

⁵²So he asked them the hour when he began to recover, and they told him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour, the fever left him.”

⁵³The father realized that it was at that hour that Jesus told him, “Your son lives,” and he himself believed, along with his whole household.
