43. Two days later Jesus left and went to Galilee.
44. (Jesus had said before that a prophet is not respected in his own country.)
45. When he arrived in Galilee, the people there welcomed him. They had been at the Passover festival in Jerusalem and had seen everything he did there.
46. Jesus went to visit Cana in Galilee again. Cana is where he had changed the water into wine. One of the king’s important officials lived in the city of Capernaum. This man’s son was sick.
47. The man heard that Jesus had come from Judea and was now in Galilee. So he went to Jesus and begged him to come to Capernaum and heal his son, who was almost dead.
48. Jesus said to him, “You people must see miraculous signs and wonders before you will believe in me.”
49. The king’s official said, “Sir, come before my little son dies.”
50. Jesus answered, “Go. Your son will live.” The man believed what Jesus told him and went home.
51. On the way home, the man’s servants came and met him. They said, “Your son is well.”
52. The man asked, “What time did my son begin to get well?” They answered, “It was about one o’clock yesterday when the fever left him.”
53. The father knew that one o’clock was the same time that Jesus had said, “Your son will live.” So the man and everyone in his house believed in Jesus.
54. That was the second miraculous sign that Jesus did after coming from Judea to Galilee.
