Reading 1,\u00a0Isaiah 65:17-21<\/em> 18 Rather be joyful, be glad for ever at what I am creating, for look, I am creating Jerusalem to be 'Joy' and my people to be 'Gladness'.<\/p> 19 I shall be joyful in Jerusalem and I shall rejoice in my people. No more will the sound of weeping be heard there, nor the sound of a shriek;<\/p> 20 never again will there be an infant there who lives only a few days, nor an old man who does not run his full course; for the youngest will die at a hundred, and at a hundred the sinner will be accursed.<\/p> 21 They will build houses and live in them, they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.<\/p> 4 Make music for Yahweh, all you who are faithful to him, praise his unforgettable holiness.<\/p> 5 His anger lasts but a moment, his favour through life; In the evening come tears, but with dawn cries of joy.<\/p> 6 Carefree, I used to think, 'Nothing can ever shake me!'<\/p> 11 You have turned my mourning into dancing, you have stripped off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy.<\/p> 12 So my heart will sing to you unceasingly, Yahweh, my God, I shall praise you for ever.<\/p> 44 He himself had declared that a prophet is not honoured in his own home town.<\/p> 45 On his arrival the Galileans received him well, having seen all that he had done at Jerusalem during the festival which they too had attended.<\/p> 46 He went again to Cana in Galilee, where he had changed the water into wine. And there was a royal official whose son was ill at Capernaum;<\/p> 47 hearing that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judaea, he went and asked him to come and cure his son, as he was at the point of death.<\/p> 48 Jesus said to him, 'Unless you see signs and portents you will not believe!'<\/p> 49 'Sir,' answered the official, 'come down before my child dies.'<\/p> 50 'Go home,' said Jesus, 'your son will live.' The man believed what Jesus had said and went on his way home;<\/p> 51 and while he was still on the way his servants met him with the news that his boy was alive.<\/p> 52 He asked them when the boy had begun to recover. They replied, 'The fever left him yesterday at the seventh hour.'<\/p> 53 The father realised that this was exactly the time when Jesus had said, 'Your son will live'; and he and all his household believed.<\/p> 54 This new sign, the second, Jesus performed on his return from Judaea to Galilee.<\/p>","categories":[{"id":160,"name":"Daily Bible"}],"tags":[]}
