Jesus Heals a Royal Official’s Son

46Then He came again to aCana of Galilee bwhere He had made the water wine. And there was a royal official whose son was sick at cCapernaum.

47When he heard that Jesus had come aout of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and was asking Him to come down and heal his son; for he was about to die.

48So Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see 1asigns and bwonders, you will never believe.”

49The royal official *said to Him, “1Sir, come down before my child dies.”

50Jesus *said to him, “aGo; your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and started on his way.

51And while he was still going down, his slaves met him, saying that his 1son was alive.

52So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. Then they said to him, “Yesterday at the 1seventh hour the fever left him.”

53So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives”; and he himself believed and ahis whole household.

54This is again a asecond 1sign that Jesus did when He had bcome out of Judea into Galilee.
