Isaiah
Chapter 65
17 Lo, I am about to create new heavens and a new earth; The things of the past shall not be remembered or come to mind.
18 Instead, there shall always be rejoicing and happiness in what I create; For I create Jerusalem to be a joy and its people to be a delight;
19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem and exult in my people. No longer shall the sound of weeping be heard there, or the sound of crying;
20 No longer shall there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not round out his full lifetime; He dies a mere youth who reaches but a hundred years, and he who fails of a hundred shall be thought accursed.
21 They shall live in the houses they build, and eat the fruit of the vineyards they plant
Psalms
Chapter 30
1 A psalm. A song for the dedication of the temple. Of David.
3 O LORD, my God, I cried out to you and you healed me.
4 LORD, you brought me up from Sheol; you kept me from going down to the pit.
5 Sing praise to the LORD, you faithful; give thanks to God's holy name.
10 "What gain is there from my lifeblood, from my going down to the grave? Does dust give you thanks or declare your faithfulness?
11 Hear, O LORD, have mercy on me; LORD, be my helper."
12 You changed my mourning into dancing; you took off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness.
John
Chapter 4
43 After the two days, he left there for Galilee.
44 For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his native place.
45 When he came into Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, since they had seen all he had done in Jerusalem at the feast; for they themselves had gone to the feast.
46 Then he returned to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. Now there was a royal official whose son was ill in Capernaum.
47 When he heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, who was near death.
48 Jesus said to him, "Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will not believe."
49 The royal official said to him, "Sir, come down before my child dies."
50 Jesus said to him, "You may go; your son will live." The man believed what Jesus said to him and left.
51 While he was on his way back, his slaves met him and told him that his boy would live.
52 He asked them when he began to recover. They told him, "The fever left him yesterday, about one in the afternoon."
53 The father realized that just at that time Jesus had said to him, "Your son will live," and he and his whole household came to believe.
54 (Now) this was the second sign Jesus did when he came to Galilee from Judea.
