John 2
1 On the third day a wedding took place in Cana of Galilee, and Jesus' mother was there.
Three days after, there was a marriage in Cana, of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 Now both Jesus and His disciples had been invited to the wedding.
Jesus, also, and his disciples, were invited to the marriage.
3 So when the wine had given out, Jesus' mother says to Him, “They don't have any wine!”
The wine falling short, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine.
4 Jesus says to her: “What is that to you and me, woman? My time has not yet come.”
Jesus answered, Woman, what have you to do with me? My time is not yet come.
5 His mother says to the servants, “Do whatever He may tell you.”
His mother said to the servants, Do whatever he shall bid you.
6 (Now there were six stone waterpots set there, according to the purification rites of the Jews, containing 20 or 30 gallons each.)
Now there were six water pots of stone, containing two or three baths each, placed there for the Jewish rites of cleansing.
7 Jesus says to them, “Fill the pots with water.” So they filled them to the brim.
Jesus said to them, Fill the pots with water. And they filled them to the brim.
8 So He says to them, “Now, draw some out and take it to the master of ceremonies.” So they took it.
Then he said, Draw, now, and carry to the director of the feast. And they did so.
9 Well, when the master of ceremonies tasted the water that had become wine—he did not know where it came from, but the servants who had drawn the water knew—he calls the bridegroom
When the director of the feast had tasted the wine made of water, not knowing whence it was, (but the servants who drew the water knew, )
10 and says to him: “Everybody serves the good wine first, then, when people are intoxicated, the inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!”
he said, addressing the bridegroom, Every person presents the best wine first, and worse wine afterward, when the guests have drunk largely; but you have reserved the best till now.
11 This, the first of the miraculous signs, Jesus performed in Cana of Galilee and revealed His glory; and His disciples believed into Him.
This first miracle Jesus wrought in Cana of Galilee, displaying his glory: and his disciples believed on him.
12 After this He went down to Capernaum—He, His mother, His brothers, and His disciples—but they did not stay there many days.
Afterward, he went to Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brothers, and his disciples; but they staid not there many days.
13 Now the Jewish Passover was near, so Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
And the Jewish passover being nigh, Jesus went to Jerusalem;
14 And in the Temple He found people selling oxen and sheep and doves, also the moneychangers at work.
and finding changers sitting in the temple, and people who sold cattle and sheep, and doves;
15 When He had made a scourge out of cords, He drove all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and as for the moneychangers, He overturned the tables and scattered the coins.
he made a whip of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and cattle, scattering the coin of the changers, and oversetting their tables.
16 And to the dove-sellers He said: “Get these things out of here! Stop turning my Father's House into a marketplace!”
and he said to them, who sold doves, Take these things hence. Make not my Father's house a house of traffic.
17 Then His disciples remembered that it stands written, “Zeal for Your House consumes me.”
(Then his disciples remembered these words of the scripture, "My zeal for thy house consumes me.")
18 So the Jews answered and said to Him, “What sign do you show us, since you do these things?”
Therefore, the Jews answered, and said to him, By what miracle do you show us your title to do these things?
19 Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it.”
Jesus answering, said to them, Destroy this temple, and I will rear it again in three days.
20 So the Jews said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple, and you will raise it in three days?!”
The Jews replied, Forty and six years was this temple in building; and you would rear it in three days?
21 But He was speaking about the temple of His body.
(But, by the temple, he meant his body.)
22 Therefore, when He was raised from among the dead His disciples remembered that He had said this; so they believed the Scripture, even the word that Jesus had spoken.
When, therefore, he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they understood the scripture, and the word which Jesus had spoken.
23 Now while He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed into His name, observing the signs that He was doing.
While he was at Jerusalem, during the feast of the passover, many believed on him, when they saw the miracles which he performed.
24 But as for Jesus Himself, He did not entrust Himself to them, because He knew all men
But Jesus did not trust himself with them, because he knew them all.
25 and that He had no need that anyone should testify about man, because He Himself knew what was in man.
He needed not to receive from others a character of any man, for he knew what was in man.
