17A World Renewed - See, I am creating new heavens and a new earth; The former things shall not be remembered nor come to mind. 18Instead, shout for joy and be glad forever in what I am creating. Indeed, I am creating Jerusalem to be a joy and its people to be a delight; 19I will rejoice in Jerusalem and exult in my people. No longer shall the sound of weeping be heard there, or the sound of crying; 20No longer shall there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, nor anyone who does not live a full lifetime; One who dies at a hundred years shall be considered a youth, and one who falls short of a hundred shall be thought accursed. 21They shall build houses and live in them, they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit;

2I - I praise you, LORD, for you raised me up and did not let my enemies rejoice over me. 4LORD, you brought my soul up from Sheol; you let me live, from going down to the pit. 5II - Sing praise to the LORD, you faithful; give thanks to his holy memory. 6For his anger lasts but a moment; his favor a lifetime. At dusk weeping comes for the night; but at dawn there is rejoicing. 11Hear, O LORD, have mercy on me; LORD, be my helper.” 12IV - You changed my mourning into dancing; you took off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness. 13So that my glory may praise you and not be silent. O LORD, my God, forever will I give you thanks.

14Seek good and not evil, that you may live; Then truly the LORD, the God of hosts, will be with you as you claim.

43Return to Galilee. After the two days, he left there for Galilee. 44For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his native place. 45When 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. Second Sign at Cana. 46Then 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. 47When 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. 48Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will not believe.” 49The royal official said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” 50Jesus said to him, “You may go; your son will live.” The man believed what Jesus said to him and left. 51While he was on his way back, his slaves met him and told him that his boy would live. 52He asked them when he began to recover. They told him, “The fever left him yesterday, about one in the afternoon.” 53The 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.
