< John 2 >

1 And the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲉϩϣⲟⲙⲛ̅ⲧ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩϣⲉⲗⲉⲉⲧ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲕⲁⲛⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲧⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ.
2 Now Jesus also was invited, with his disciples, to the wedding.
ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲧⲱϩⲙ̅ ⲇⲉ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲧϣⲉⲗⲉⲉⲧ.
3 And when the wine ran out, Jesus' mother said to him, "They have no wine."
ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩϣⲱⲱⲧ ⲛ̅ⲏⲣⲡ. ⲡⲉϫⲉⲧⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩⲏⲣⲡ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ.
4 Jesus said to her, "Woman, what does that have to do with you and me? My hour has not yet come."
ⲇ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲉϣⲟⲩ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲧⲉⲧⲁⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲉ͡ⲓ.
5 His mother said to the servants, "Whatever he says to you, do it."
ⲉ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲧⲉϥⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲱⲧϩ̅. ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧϥ̅ⲛⲁϫⲟⲟϥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲁⲣⲓϥ.
6 Now there were six stone water jars set there after the Jewish manner of purifying, containing two or three metretes apiece.
ⲋ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲥⲟ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲩⲇⲣⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲩⲕⲏ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲉ͡ⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲧⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ϣⲱⲡ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉⲧⲣⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲏ ϣⲟⲙⲛⲧ̅.
7 Jesus said to them, "Fill the water jars with water." They filled them up to the brim.
ⲍ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲙⲉϩⲛ̅ϩⲩⲇⲣⲓⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲙⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ.
8 He said to them, "Now draw some out, and take it to the ruler of the feast." So they took it.
ⲏ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲱⲧϩ̅ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲉ͡ⲓⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲧⲣⲓⲕⲗⲓⲛⲟⲥ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓⲛⲉ.
9 When the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast called the bridegroom,
ⲑ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲧⲣⲓⲕⲗⲓⲛⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲱⲡⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲁϥⲣ̅ⲏⲣⲡ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲧⲱⲛ ⲡⲉ. ⲛ̅ⲣⲉϥⲟⲩⲱⲧϩ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲙⲉϩⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲩⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲡⲉ. ⲁⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲧⲣⲓⲕⲗⲓⲛⲟⲥ ⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲧϣⲉⲗⲉⲉⲧ
10 and said to him, "Everyone serves the good wine first, and when the guests have drunk freely, then that which is worse. You have kept the good wine until now."
ⲓ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉϣⲁⲩⲕⲁⲡⲏⲣⲡ̅ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲛ̅ϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲩϣⲁⲛϯϩⲉ ϣⲁⲩⲕⲁⲡⲉⲧϭⲟϫⲃ̅. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲕⲁⲣⲉϩ ⲉⲡⲏⲣⲡ ⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ϣⲁϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ.
11 This beginning of his signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲡϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈ⲛ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲁϥ ϩⲛ̅ⲕⲁⲛⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ·
12 After this, he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother and brothers, and his disciples; and they stayed there a few days.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲕⲁⲫⲁⲣⲛⲁⲟⲩⲙ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲧⲉϥⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϭⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ.
13 The Jewish Passover was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲛⲉϥϩⲏⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲥⲟⲗⲩⲙⲁ
14 And he found in the temple those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, and the money changers sitting.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁϥϩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ⲉⲩϯ ⲉϩⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲩⲱ ϭⲣⲟⲟⲙⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲧⲣⲁⲡⲉⲍⲓⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲩϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ.
15 And he made a whip of cords, and threw all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the changers' money, and overthrew their tables.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲙⲓⲉⲟⲩⲙⲁⲥⲧⲓⲅⲝ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲛⲟⲩϩ ⲁϥⲛⲉϫⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲡⲱϩⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲙⲛⲧ̅ ⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲣⲉϥϫⲓⲕⲟⲗⲩⲙⲃⲟⲛ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϣⲟⲣϣⲣ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲧⲣⲁⲡⲉⲍⲁ.
16 To those who sold the doves, he said, "Take these things out of here. Do not make my Father's house a marketplace."
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧϯ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϭⲣⲟⲟⲙⲡⲉ. ϫⲉ ϥⲓⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲙⲁ. ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲉ͡ⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲏⲉ͡ⲓ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲉ͡ⲓⲱⲧ ⲛ̅ⲏⲉ͡ⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ⲉϣⲱⲧ.
17 His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for your house will consume me."
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲣ̅ⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ϥⲥⲏϩ ϫⲉ ⲡⲕⲱϩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲕⲏⲉ͡ⲓ ⲛⲁⲟⲩⲟⲙⲛ̅ⲧ.
18 The Jewish leaders therefore answered him, "What sign do you show us, seeing that you do these things?"
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲛⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ϭⲉ ⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲕ̅ⲧⲥⲁⲃⲟ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲕⲉ͡ⲓⲣⲉ ⲛⲛⲁⲓ̈.
19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲃⲱⲗ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲣ̅ⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲛⲁⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥϥ̅ ⲛ̅ϣⲟⲙⲛ̅ⲧ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ.
20 The Jewish leaders therefore said, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?"
ⲕ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ϩⲙⲉⲧⲁⲥⲉ ⲣ̅ⲣⲟⲙⲡⲉ ⲉⲩⲕⲱⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲣ̅ⲡⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲕⲛⲁⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥϥ̅ ⲛ̅ϣⲟⲙⲛ̅ⲧ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ.
21 But he spoke of the temple of his body.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲥⲱⲙⲁ.
22 When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this, and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛϥ̅ ϭⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ. ⲁⲩⲣ̅ⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ⲛⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲟⲟϥ.
23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in his name, after seeing his signs which he did.
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲇⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲛ̅ⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲏⲙ ⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁ ⲙⲡ̅ⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ. ⲁⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ ⲉⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲙⲙⲁⲓ̈ⲛ ⲉⲛⲉϥⲉ͡ⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ.
24 But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew everyone,
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲉϥⲧⲁⲛϩⲟⲩⲧ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲉⲧⲃⲉϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ
25 and because he did not need anyone to testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥ̅ⲣ̅ⲭⲣⲓⲁ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲣ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲣⲱⲙⲉ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲉϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲧϩⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ·
