⁴⁶Once more, Jesus visited Cana in Galilee. Cana is where he had turned the water into wine. A royal official was there. His son was sick in bed at Capernaum. ⁴⁷The official heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea. So he went to Jesus and begged him to come and heal his son. The boy was close to death.

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

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

⁵⁰Jesus replied, “You may go. Your son will live.”

The man believed what Jesus said, and so he left. ⁵¹While he was still on his way home, his servants met him. They gave him the news that his boy was living. ⁵²He asked what time his son got better. They said to him, “The fever left him yesterday afternoon at one o’clock.”

⁵³Then the father realized what had happened. That was the exact time Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” So he and all his family became believers.

⁵⁴This was the second miraculous sign that Jesus did after coming from Judea to Galilee.

Read in Logos

John 4:50: Jesus said to him, “Go; your son will live.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went on his way.
