John 2
1 Two days after this there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and Jesus’ mother was there.
And on the third day there was a marriage-feast in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 Jesus himself, too, with his disciples, was invited to the wedding.
And both Jesus and his disciples were invited to the feast.
3 And, when the wine ran short, his mother said to him, “They have no wine left.”
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.
4 “What do you want with me?” answered Jesus. “My time has not come yet.”
Jesus saith to her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? My hour is not yet come.
5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
His mother saith to the servants, Whatever he saith to you, do it.
6 There were standing there six stone water-jars, in accordance with the Jewish rule of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons.
Now there were set there six water-pots of stone, in conformity with the Jews' custom of purifying, containing two or three firkins apiece.
7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the water-jars with water.”
Jesus saith to them, Fill the water-pots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
8 And, when they had filled them to the brim, he added, “Now take some out, and carry it to the Master of the feast.” The servants did so.
And he saith to them, Draw out now, and bear it to the master of the feast. And they bore it.
9 And, when the Master of the feast had tasted the water which had now become wine, not knowing where it had come from – although the servants who had taken out the water knew –
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
10 He called the groom and said to him, “Everyone puts good wine on the table first, and inferior wine afterward, when his guests have drunk freely; but you have kept back the good wine until now!”
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.
11 This, the first sign of his mission, Jesus gave at Cana in Galilee, and by it revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
This beginning of the signs Jesus made in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
12 After this, Jesus went down to Capernaum – he, his mother, his brothers, and his disciples; but they stayed there only a few days.
After this he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brothers, and his disciples; and they abode there not many days.
13 Then, as the Jewish Passover was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
And the passover of the Jews was near; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 In the Temple Courts he found people who were selling bullocks, sheep, and pigeons, and the money changers at their counters.
And he found in the temple those who sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the money-changers sitting.
15 So he made a whip of cords, and drove them all out of the Temple Courts, and the sheep and bullocks as well; he scattered the money of the money changers, and overturned their tables,
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;
16 and said to the pigeon-dealers, “Take these things away. Do not turn my Father’s house into a market house.”
and said to those who sold the doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise.
17 His disciples remembered that scripture said – ‘Passion for your house will consume me.’
His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for thy house will consume me.”
18 Then some of the religious authorities asked Jesus, “What sign are you going to show us, since you act in this way?”
The Jews therefore answered and said to him, What sign dost thou show us, seeing thou doest these things?
19 “Destroy this temple,” was his answer, “and I will raise it in three days.”
Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 “This Temple,” the authorities replied, “has been forty-six years in building, and are you going to ‘raise it in three days’?”
Then said the Jews, Forty-six years was this temple in building; and wilt thou raise it up in three days?
21 But Jesus was speaking of his body as a temple.
But he spoke of the temple of his body.
22 Afterward, when he had risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the passage of scripture, and the words which Jesus had spoken.
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.
23 While Jesus was in Jerusalem, during the Passover Festival, many came to trust in him, when they saw the signs of his mission that he was giving.
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.
24 But Jesus did not put himself in their power because he knew what was in their hearts.
But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew all men;
25 He did not need anyone to tell him about people because he could read what was in them.
and had no need that any one should testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
