< John 2 >
1 And, on the third day, a marriage, took place, in Cana, of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there, —
And the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galil, and the mother of Yeshua was there.
2 and Jesus also was invited, with his disciples, unto the marriage.
Now Yeshua also was invited, with his talmidim, to the wedding.
3 And, wine falling short, the mother of Jesus saith unto him—Wine, have they none!
And when the wine ran out, Yeshua's mother said to him, "They have no wine."
4 And Jesus saith unto her—What part can I take with thee, O woman? Not yet, hath come, mine hour.
Yeshua said to her, "Woman, what does that have to do with you and me? My hour has not yet come."
5 His mother saith unto them who are ministering—Whatsoever he may say to you, do!
His mother said to the servants, "Whatever he says to you, do it."
6 Now there were there, six stone water-vessels, placed, according to the purification of the Jews; holding each, two or three measures.
Now there were six stone water jars set there after the Jewish manner of purifying, containing two or three metretes apiece.
7 Jesus saith unto them—Fill the vessels with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
Yeshua said to them, "Fill the water jars with water." They filled them up to the brim.
8 And he saith unto them—Draw out now, and be bearing unto the master of the feast. And they bare.
He said to them, "Now draw some out, and take it to the ruler of the feast." So they took it.
9 And, when the master of the feast had tasted the water, now made, wine, and knew not whence it was, —though, they who were ministering, knew, even they who had drawn out the water, the master accosteth the bridegroom,
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,
10 and saith unto him—Every man, first the good wine, setteth out; and, when they had been well-supplied, the inferior: —Thou, hast kept the good wine until, even now.
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."
11 This, beginning of his signs, did Jesus, in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
This beginning of his signs Yeshua did in Cana of Galil, and revealed his glory; and his talmidim believed in him.
12 After this, he came down into Capernaum, —he, and his mother and brethren, and his disciples; and, there, they abode, not many days.
After this, he went down to Kfar-Nahum, he, and his mother and brothers, and his talmidim; and they stayed there a few days.
13 And, near, was the passover of the Jews; and, Jesus, went up unto Jerusalem.
The Jewish Passover was near, and Yeshua went up to Jerusalem.
14 And he found, in the temple, them that were selling oxen and sheep and doves, also the money-changers sitting.
And he found in the temple those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, and the money changers sitting.
15 And, making a scourge out of rushes, all of them, thrust he forth out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and, the money-changers’ small coins, poured he forth, and, the tables, he overturned;
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.
16 and unto them who were selling, the doves, he said—Take these things hence! Be not making, the house of my Father, a house of merchandise.
To those who sold the doves, he said, "Take these things out of here. Do not make my Father's house a marketplace."
17 His disciples remembered that it was written—The zeal of thy house, eateth me up.
His talmidim remembered that it was written, "Zeal for your house will consume me."
18 The Jews therefore answered, and said unto him, What sign, dost thou point out to us, in that, these things, thou doest?
The Jewish leaders therefore answered him, "What sign do you show us, seeing that you do these things?"
19 Jesus answered, and said unto them—Take down this shrine, and, in three days, will I raise it.
Yeshua answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
20 The Jews, therefore, said—In forty and six years, was this shrine built. And, thou, in three days, wilt raise it!
The Jewish leaders therefore said, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?"
21 But, he, was speaking concerning the shrine of his body.
But he spoke of the temple of his body.
22 When, therefore, he had been raised from among the dead, his disciples remembered, that, this, he had been saying; and they believed in the Scripture, and in the word which Jesus had spoken.
When therefore he was raised from the dead, his talmidim remembered that he said this, and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Yeshua had said.
23 Now, when he was in Jerusalem, during the passover, during the feast, many, believed on his name, viewing his signs which he was doing.
Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in his name, after seeing his signs which he did.
24 Jesus himself, however, was not trusting himself unto them, by reason of his understanding them all,
But Yeshua did not trust himself to them, because he knew everyone,
25 and because he had, no need, that anyone should bear witness concerning man; for, he, understood what was in man.
and because he did not need anyone to testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
