Gospel John 4:43-54
43 After the two days he went out from there and went into Galilee.
44 For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honour in his own country.
45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.
46 Jesus came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water into wine. There was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.
47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him, and begged him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.
48 Jesus therefore said to him, "Unless you see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe."
49 The nobleman said to him, "Sir, come down before my child dies."
50 Jesus said to him, "Go your way. Your son lives." The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.
51 As he was now going down, his servants met him and reported, saying "Your child lives!"
52 So he enquired of them the hour when he began to get better. They said therefore to him, "Yesterday at the seventh hour,†1:00 P. M. the fever left him."
53 So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son lives." He believed, as did his whole house.
54 This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.
†4:52: 1:00 P. M.

Isaiah 65:17-21
17 "For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth;
and the former things will not be remembered,
nor come into mind.
18 But be glad and rejoice forever in that which I create;
for, behold, I create Jerusalem to be a delight,
and her people a joy.
19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem,
and delight in my people;
and the voice of weeping and the voice of crying
will be heard in her no more.
20 "No more will there be an infant who only lives a few days,
nor an old man who has not filled his days;
for the child will die one hundred years old,
and the sinner being one hundred years old will be accursed.
21 They will build houses, and inhabit them.
They will plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.

Gospel John 9:1-41
1 As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth.
2 His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"
3 Jesus answered, "Neither did this man sin, nor his parents; but, that the works of God might be revealed in him.
4 I must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.
5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
6 When he had said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man's eyes with the mud,
7 and said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which means "Sent"). So he went away, washed, and came back seeing.
8 The neighbours therefore, and those who saw that he was blind before, said, "Isn't this he who sat and begged?"
9 Others were saying, "It is he." Still others were saying, "He looks like him."
He said, "I am he."
10 They therefore were asking him, "How were your eyes opened?"
11 He answered, "A man called Jesus made mud, anointed my eyes, and said to me, 'Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash.' So I went away and washed, and I received sight."
12 Then they asked him, "Where is he?"
He said, "I don't know."
13 They brought him who had been blind to the Pharisees. 14 It was a Sabbath when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.
15 Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He said to them, "He put mud on my eyes, I washed, and I see."
16 Some therefore of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, because he doesn't keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" There was division amongst them.
17 Therefore they asked the blind man again, "What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?"
He said, "He is a prophet."
18 The Jews therefore did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him who had received his sight,
19 and asked them, "Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"
20 His parents answered them, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
21 but how he now sees, we don't know; or who opened his eyes, we don't know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself."
22 His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess him as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.
23 Therefore his parents said, "He is of age. Ask him."
24 So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, "Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner."
25 He therefore answered, "I don't know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see."
26 They said to him again, "What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?"
27 He answered them, "I told you already, and you didn't listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don't also want to become his disciples, do you?"
28 They insulted him and said, "You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
29 We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don't know where he comes from."
30 The man answered them, "How amazing! You don't know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes.
31 We know that God doesn't listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshipper of God, and does his will, he listens to him.☆Psalm 66:18, Proverbs 15:29; 28:9
32 Since the world began it has never been heard of that anyone opened the eyes of someone born blind.
33 If this man were not from God, he could do nothing."
34 They answered him, "You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?" They threw him out.
35 Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of God?"
36 He answered, "Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?"
37 Jesus said to him, "You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you."
38 He said, "Lord, I believe!" and he worshipped him.
39 Jesus said, "I came into this world for judgement, that those who don't see may see; and that those who see may become blind."
40 Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, "Are we also blind?"
41 Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, 'We see.' Therefore your sin remains.

1 Samuel 16:1b、6-7、10-13a
1b The LORD said to Samuel, "Fill your horn with oil, and go. I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite; for I have provided a king for myself amongst his sons."
6 When they had come, he looked at Eliab, and said, "Surely the LORD's anointed is before him."
7 But the LORD said to Samuel, "Don't look on his face, or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for I don't see as man sees. For man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."
10 Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. Samuel said to Jesse, "The LORD has not chosen these." 11 Samuel said to Jesse, "Are all your children here?"
He said, "There remains yet the youngest. Behold, he is keeping the sheep."
Samuel said to Jesse, "Send and get him, for we will not sit down until he comes here."
12 He sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, with a handsome face and good appearance. The LORD said, "Arise! Anoint him, for this is he."
13ab Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the middle of his brothers. Then the LORD's Spirit came mightily on David from that day forward.

Ephesians 5:8-14
8 For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,
9 for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,
10 proving what is well pleasing to the Lord.
11 Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them.
12 For the things which are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of.
13 But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light.
14 Therefore he says, "Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."
