Therefore He came again to ^(ba)Cana of Galilee ^(bb)where He had made the water wine. And there was a royal official whose son was sick at ^(bc)Capernaum.

When he heard that Jesus had come ^(bd)out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and was imploring Him to come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.

So Jesus said to him, "Unless you people see ^[g](be)signs and ^(bf)wonders, you simply will not believe."

The royal official *said to Him, "^[h]Sir, come down before my child dies."

Jesus *said to him, "^(bg)Go; your son lives." The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and started off.

As he was now going down, his slaves met him, saying that his ^[i]son was living.

So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. Then they said to him, "Yesterday at the ^[j]seventh hour the fever left him."

So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son lives" ; and he himself believed and ^(bh)his whole household.

This is again a ^(bi)second ^[k]sign that Jesus performed when He had ^(bj)come out of Judea into Galilee.
