37 upon this occasion, that saying is verified, "one soweth, and another reapeth." 38 I sent you to reap where you bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and you are entred into their labours. 39 Now many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him, for that testimony which the woman gave him, "he told me all that ever I did." 40 so that when the Samaritans were come to him, they desired him to stay with them: and he stay'd there two days. 41 and many more believed, for having heard him speak himself: and said to the woman, 42 now it is not for what you have said, that we believe: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the saviour of the world, the Christ. 43 Two days after, he departed thence, and went into Galilee: 44 (tho' Jesus himself had declared, that a prophet is not honoured in his own country.) 45 when he was come into Galilee, he was well received by the Galileans, who had seen all that he did at Jerusalem during the feast: for they likewise went to the feast. 46 Jesus went therefore a second time to Cana in Galilee, where he had changed the water into wine, now a certain nobleman was there, whose son was sick at Capernaum. 47 who having heard that Jesus was come out of Judea into Galilee, he went there to desire him to come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death. 48 but Jesus said to him, except you see signs and miracles, you will not believe. 49 the nobleman said to him, sir, pray come down before my child be dead. 50 go thy way, said Jesus: thy son is well, and the man believed what Jesus had said to him, and went his way. 51 as he was upon the road, his servants met him, and acquainted him, that his son was well. 52 then he enquired of them the hour when he began to mend: and they answered, yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him. 53 so the father knew that it was at the very same hour, at which Jesus said to him, thy son is well, and he himself believed, and all his family. 54 Jesus did this second miracle when he return'd from Judea to Galilee.
