ILEE, CURING A NOBLEMAN'S SON.
1 [4:43]AND after two days he departed thence to Galilee. [4:44]For
Jesus himself testified that a prophet is without honor in his native
country. [4:45] When, therefore, he came into Galilee, the Galileans
received him, having seen all that he did at Jerusalem at the feast;
for they also came to the feast. [4:46]Then he came again to Cana in
Galilee, where he had made the water wine.
2 And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.
[4:47] Hearing that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, he went to
him, and desired him to come down and cure his son, for he was about to
die. [4:48]Then Jesus said to him, Unless you see miracles and
prodigies you will not believe. [4:49] The nobleman said to him, Lord,
come down before my child dies. [4:50]Jesus said to him, Go; your son
lives. The man believed the word which Jesus said to him, and went.
[4:51]And as he was now going down his servants met him, and told,
saying, Your child lives. [4:52]Then he inquired of them the hour in
which he became better. Then they said to him, The fever left him
yesterday, at the seventh hour. [4:53]Then the father knew that it was
in that hour in which Jesus said to him, Your son lives; and he
believed, and all his house. [4:54] This second miracle did Jesus,
having come from Judea into Galilee.
CHAPTER VII.
CHRIST CURING A SICK MAN ON THE SABBATH, AT JERUSALEM.
1 [5:1]AFTER these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went
up to Jerusalem. [5:2]And there is at Jerusalem, by the sheep-gate, a
pool, called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches. [5:3]In these
lay a multitude of sick, blind, lame, withered. [5:5]And there was a
certain man there who had been sick thirty-eight years. [5:6]Jesus
seeing him lying, and knowing that he had now been sick a long time,
said to him, Do you wish to become well? [5:7]The sick man answered
him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is disturbed, to put me into
the pool; but while I am coming another goes down before me. [5:8]Jesus
said to him, Arise, take up your bed and walk. [5:9]And the man
immediately became well, and took up his bed and walked. That day was
the sabbath.
2 [5:10]The Jews, therefore, said to him that was cured, It is the
sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry the bed. [5:11]He answered
them, He that made me well, he said to me, Take up your bed and walk.
[5:12]They asked him, Who is the man that said to you
