On athe third day
there was a wedding
in bCana
of Galilee
, and the cmother
of Jesus
was there
;
and both Jesus
and His adisciples
were invited
to the wedding
.
When the wine ran
out, the mother
of Jesus
*said
to Him, "They have
no
wine
."
And Jesus *said
to her, " aWoman
, 1 bwhat
does that have to do with us? cMy hour
has
not yet
come
."
His amother *said
to the servants
, "Whatever
He says
to you, do
it."
Now there were six
stone
waterpots
set
there
afor the Jewish
custom of purification
, containing
1twenty
or
thirty
gallons
each
.
Jesus *said
to them, "Fill
the waterpots
with water
." So
they filled
them up to the brim
.
And He *said to them, "Draw
some out now
and take
it to the 1headwaiter
." So
they took
it to him.
When the headwaiter
tasted
the water
awhich had become
wine
, and did not know
where
it came
from (but the servants
who had drawn
the water
knew
), the headwaiter
*called
the bridegroom
,
and *said to him, "Every
man
serves
the good
wine
first
, and when
the people ahave 1drunk
freely
, then he serves the poorer
wine; but you have kept
the good
wine
until
now
."
This beginning
of His 1 asigns
Jesus
did
in Cana
of bGalilee
, and manifested
His cglory
, and His disciples
believed
in Him.
After this
He went
down
to aCapernaum
, He and His bmother
and His bbrothers
and His cdisciples
; and they stayed
there
a few
days
.
aThe Passover of the Jews
was near
, and Jesus
bwent
up to Jerusalem
.
aAnd He found in the temple
those
who were selling
oxen
and sheep
and doves
, and the money
changers
seated
at their tables.
And He made a scourge
of cords
, and drove
them all
out of the temple
, with the sheep
and the oxen
; and He poured
out the coins
of the money
changers
and overturned
their tables
;
and to those who were selling
athe doves
He said
, "Take
these
things
away
; stop
making
bMy Father's
house
a 1place
of business
."
His adisciples remembered
that it was written
, " bZEAL
FOR YOUR HOUSE
WILL CONSUME
ME."
aThe Jews then
said
to Him, " bWhat
sign
do You show
us 1as your authority for doing
these
things
?"
Jesus answered
them, " aDestroy
this
1temple
, and in three
days
I will raise
it up."
aThe Jews then
said
, "It took bforty-six
years
to build
this
1temple
, and will You raise
it up in three
days
?"
But He was speaking of athe 1temple
of His body
.
So when
He was raised
from the dead
, His adisciples
bremembered
that He said
this
; and they believed
cthe Scripture
and the word
which
Jesus
had spoken
.
Now when
He was in Jerusalem
at athe Passover
, during
the feast
, many
believed
in His name
, bobserving
His signs
which
He was doing
.
But Jesus, on His part
, was not entrusting
Himself
to them, for aHe knew
all
men
,
and because He did not need
anyone
to testify
concerning
man
, afor He Himself
knew
what
was in man
.
