John 4:46-53

46ThereforeG3767 He cameG2064 againG3825 to 1CanaG2580 of GalileeG1056, 2whereG3699 He had madeG4160 the waterG5204 into wineG3631. And there was a royalG937 officialG937 whoseG3739 sonG5207 was sickG770 at 3CapernaumG2746.

47When he heardG191 that JesusG2424 hadG2240 comeG2240 4from JudeaG2449 into GalileeG1056, he wentG565 to Him and began askingG2065 Him to comeG2597 downG2597 and healG2390 his sonG5207; for he wasG3195 atG3195 theG3195 pointG3195 ofG3195 deathG599.

48ThenG3767 JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “UnlessG1437G3361 you people seeG3708 56signsG4592 and 7wondersG5059, you simply will not believeG4100.”

49The royalG937 officialG937 saidG3004 to Him, “8SirG2962, comeG2597 downG2597 beforeG4250 my childG3813 diesG599.”

50JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “9GoG4198; your sonG5207 10isG2198 aliveG2198.” The manG444 believedG4100 the wordG3056 that JesusG2424 spokeG3004 to him and wentG4198 home.

51And as he was nowG2235 goingG2597 downG2597, his slavesG1401 metG5221 him, sayingG3004 that his 11sonG3816 wasG2198 12aliveG2198.

52SoG3767 he inquiredG4441 of them the hourG5610 whenG1722G3739 he began to getG2192 betterG2866. ThenG3767 they saidG3004 to him, “YesterdayG2189 at the 13seventhG1442 hourG5610 the feverG4446 leftG863 him.”

53SoG3767 the fatherG3962 knewG1097 that it was at that hourG5610 in whichG3739 JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “Your sonG5207 isG2198 aliveG2198”; and he himselfG846 believedG4100, and 14his entireG3650 householdG3614.
