47 The official heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea. So he went to Jesus and begged him to come and heal his son. The boy was close to death.
48 Jesus told him, "You people will never believe unless you see miraculous signs and wonders."
49 The royal official said, "Sir, come down before my child dies."
50 Jesus replied, "You may go. Your son will live." The man believed what Jesus said, and so he left.
51 While he was still on his way home, his servants met him. They gave him the news that his boy was living.
52 He asked what time his son got better. They said to him, "The fever left him yesterday afternoon at one o'clock."
53 Then the father realized what had happened. That was the exact time Jesus had said to him, "Your son will live." So he and all his family became believers.
