John 2
1 And on the third day there was a marriage-feast in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there.
On the third day a wedding took place in Cana of Galilee, and Jesus' mother was there.
2 And both Jesus and his disciples were invited to the feast.
Now both Jesus and His disciples had been invited to the wedding.
3 And they had no wine, because the wine of the feast had failed. Then the mother of Jesus saith to him, There is no wine.
So when the wine had given out, Jesus' mother says to Him, “They don't have any wine!”
4 Jesus saith to her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? My hour is not yet come.
Jesus says to her: “What is that to you and me, woman? My time has not yet come.”
5 His mother saith to the servants, Whatever he saith to you, do it.
His mother says to the servants, “Do whatever He may tell you.”
6 Now there were set there six water-pots of stone, in conformity with the Jews' custom of purifying, containing two or three firkins apiece.
(Now there were six stone waterpots set there, according to the purification rites of the Jews, containing 20 or 30 gallons each.)
7 Jesus saith to them, Fill the water-pots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
Jesus says to them, “Fill the pots with water.” So they filled them to the brim.
8 And he saith to them, Draw out now, and bear it to the master of the feast. And they bore it.
So He says to them, “Now, draw some out and take it to the master of ceremonies.” So they took it.
9 But when the master of the feast tasted the water that had been made wine, not knowing whence it was, but the servants who drew the water knew, he called the bridegroom
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
10 and said to him, Every man setteth on the good wine first, and when men have drunk freely, that which is worse. Thou hast kept the good wine until now.
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!”
11 This beginning of the signs Jesus made in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
This, the first of the miraculous signs, Jesus performed in Cana of Galilee and revealed His glory; and His disciples believed into Him.
12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brothers, and his disciples; and they abode there not many days.
After this He went down to Capernaum—He, His mother, His brothers, and His disciples—but they did not stay there many days.
13 And the passover of the Jews was near; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
Now the Jewish Passover was near, so Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 And he found in the temple those who sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the money-changers sitting.
And in the Temple He found people selling oxen and sheep and doves, also the moneychangers at work.
15 And having made a scourge of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and poured out the money of the exchangers, and overthrew the tables;
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.
16 and said to those who sold the doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise.
And to the dove-sellers He said: “Get these things out of here! Stop turning my Father's House into a marketplace!”
17 His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for thy house will consume me.”
Then His disciples remembered that it stands written, “Zeal for Your House consumes me.”
18 The Jews therefore answered and said to him, What sign dost thou show us, seeing thou doest these things?
So the Jews answered and said to Him, “What sign do you show us, since you do these things?”
19 Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it.”
20 Then said the Jews, Forty-six years was this temple in building; and wilt thou raise it up in three days?
So the Jews said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple, and you will raise it in three days?!”
21 But he spoke of the temple of his body.
But He was speaking about the temple of His body.
22 When therefore he had risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Jesus had spoken.
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.
23 And when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, at the feast, many believed in his name, when they saw his signs which he wrought.
Now while He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed into His name, observing the signs that He was doing.
24 But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew all men;
But as for Jesus Himself, He did not entrust Himself to them, because He knew all men
25 and had no need that any one should testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
and that He had no need that anyone should testify about man, because He Himself knew what was in man.
