John 4:39-54 ▼

39 And many from that city believed in Him, of the Samaritans, because of the word of the woman testifying, “He told me all things—as many as I did.”

40 When, then, the Samaritans came to Him, they were asking Him to remain with them, and He remained there two days;

41 and many more believed because of His word,

42 and said to the woman, “We no longer believe because of your speaking; for we ourselves have heard and known that this is truly the Savior of the world—the Christ.”

43 And after the two days He went forth from there, and went away to Galilee,

44 for Jesus Himself testified that a prophet will not have honor in his own country;

45 when then, He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all things that He did in Jerusalem in the celebration—for they also went to the celebration.

46 Jesus came, therefore, again to Cana of Galilee, where He made the water wine, and there was a certain attendant, whose son was ailing in Capernaum,

47 he, having heard that Jesus comes out of Judea to Galilee, went away to Him, and was asking Him that He may come down and may heal his son, for he was about to die.

48 Jesus then said to him, “If you may not see signs and wonders, you will not believe.”

49 The attendant says to Him, “Lord, come down before my child dies”;

50 Jesus says to him, “Be going on; your son lives.” And the man believed the word that Jesus said to him, and was going on,

51 and he now going down, his servants met him, and told, saying, “Your child lives”;

52 he inquired then of them the hour in which he became better, and they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him”;

53 then the father knew that [it was] in that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives,” and he himself believed, and his whole house;

54 this again [was] a second sign Jesus did, having come out of Judea to Galilee.
