[1] The third day, there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there. [2] Jesus also was invited, with his disciples, to the wedding. [3] When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no wine.” [4] Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does that have to do with you and me? My hour has not yet come.” [5] His mother said to the servants, “Whatever he says to you, do it.” [6] Now there were six water pots of stone set there after the Jews’ way of purifying, containing two or three metretesⓘ apiece. [7] Jesus said to them, “Fill the water pots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim. [8] He said to them, “Now draw some out, and take it to the ruler of the feast.” So they took it. [9] When the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and didn’t know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast called the bridegroom [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!” [11] This beginning of his signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him. [12] After this, he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, his brothers, and his disciples; and they stayed there a few days. [13] The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. [14] He found in the temple those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, and the changers of money sitting. [15] He made a whip of cords and drove all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the changers’ money and overthrew their tables. [16] To those who sold the doves, he said, “Take these things out of here! Don’t make my Father’s house a marketplace!” [17] His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for your house will eat me up.”† [18] The Jews therefore answered him, “What sign do you show us, seeing that you do these things?” [19] Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” [20] The Jews therefore said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple! Will you raise it up in three days?” [21] But he spoke of the temple of his body. [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. [23] Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in his name, observing his signs which he did. [24] But Jesus didn’t entrust himself to them, because he knew everyone, [25] and because he didn’t need for anyone to testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.

His First Miracle

[1] And G2532 the G3588 third G5154 day G2250 there was G1096 a marriage G1062 in G1722 Cana G2580 of Galilee; G1056 and G2532 the G3588 mother G3384 of Jesus G2424 was G2258 there: G1563 [2] and G1161 both G2532 Jesus G2424 was called, G2564 and G2532 his G846 disciples, G3101 to G1519 the G3588 marriage. G1062 [3] And G2532 when they wanted G5302 wine, G3631 the G3588 mother G3384 of Jesus G2424 saith G3004 unto G4314 him, G846 They have G2192 no G3756 wine. G3631 [4] Jesus G2424 saith G3004 unto her, G846 Woman, G1135 what G5101 have I G1698 to do with G2532 thee? G4671 mine G3450 hour G5610 is G2240 not yet G3768 come. G2240 [5] His G846 mother G3384 saith G3004 unto the G3588 servants, G1249 Whatsoever G3739 G5100 G302 he saith G3004 unto you, G5213 do G4160 it. [6] And G1161 there were G2258 set G2749 there G1563 six G1803 waterpots G5201 of stone, G3035 after G2596 the G3588 manner of the purifying G2512 of the G3588 Jews, G2453 containing G5562 two G1417 or G2228 three G5140 firkins G3355 apiece. G303 [7] Jesus G2424 saith G3004 unto them, G846 Fill G1072 the G3588 waterpots G5201 with water. G5204 And G2532 they filled G1072 them G846 up G1072 to G2193 the brim. G507 [8] And G2532 he saith G3004 unto them, G846 Draw out G501 now, G3568 and G2532 bear G5342 unto the G3588 governor of the feast. G755 And G2532 they bare G5342 it. [9] When G5613 G1161 the G3588 ruler of the feast G755 had tasted G1089 the G3588 water G5204 that was made G1096 wine, G3631 and G2532 knew G1492 not G3756 whence G4159 it was: G2076 (but G1161 the G3588 servants G1249 which G3588 drew G501 the G3588 water G5204 knew;) G1492 the G3588 governor of the feast G755 called G5455 the G3588 bridegroom, G3566 [10] and G2532 saith G3004 unto him, G846 Every G3956 man G444 at the beginning G4412 doth set forth G5087 good G2570 wine; G3631 and G2532 when G3752 men have well drunk, G3184 then G5119 that which G3588 is worse: G1640 but thou G4771 hast kept G5083 the G3588 good G2570 wine G3631 until G2193 now. G737 [11] This G3778 beginning G746 of miracles G4592 did G4160 Jesus G2424 in G1722 Cana G2580 of Galilee, G1056 and G2532 manifested forth G5319 his G846 glory; G1391 and G2532 his G846 disciples G3101 believed G4100 on G1519 him. G846 [12] After G3326 this G5124 he went down G2597 to G1519 Capernaum, G2584 he, G846 and G2532 his G846 mother, G3384 and G2532 his G846 brethren, G80 and G2532 his G846 disciples: G3101 and G2532 they continued G3306 there G1563 not G3756 many G4183 days. G2250

The First Passover

[13] And G2532 the G3588 Jews’ G2453 passover G3957 was G2258 at hand, G1451 and G2532 Jesus G2424 went up G305 to G1519 Jerusalem, G2414 [14] and G2532 found G2147 in G1722 the G3588 temple G2411 those that G3588 sold G4453 oxen G1016 and G2532 sheep G4263 and G2532 doves, G4058 and G2532 the G3588 changers of money G2773 sitting: G2521 [15] and G2532 when he had made G4160 a scourge G5416 of G1537 small cords, G4979 he drove G1544 them all G3956 out G1544 of G1537 the G3588 temple, G2411 and G5037 the G3588 sheep, G4263 and G2532 the G3588 oxen; G1016 and G2532 poured out G1632 the G3588 changers’ G2855 money, G2772 and G2532 overthrew G390 the G3588 tables; G5132 [16] and G2532 said G2036 unto them that G3588 sold G4453 doves, G4058 Take G142 these things G5023 hence; G1782 make G4160 not G3361 my G3450 Father’s G3962 house G3624 an house G3624 of merchandise. G1712 [17] And G1161 his G846 disciples G3101 remembered G3415 that G3754 it was G2076 written, G1125 The G3588 zeal G2205 of thine G4675 house G3624 hath eaten G2719 me G3165 up. G2719 [18] Then G3767 answered G611 the G3588 Jews G2453 and G2532 said G2036 unto him, G846 What G5101 sign G4592 shewest thou G1166 unto us, G2254 seeing that G3754 thou doest G4160 these things? G5023 [19] Jesus G2424 answered G611 and G2532 said G2036 unto them, G846 Destroy G3089 this G5126 temple, G3485 and G2532 in G1722 three G5140 days G2250 I will raise G1453 it G846 up. G1453 [20] Then G3767 said G2036 the G3588 Jews, G2453 Forty G5062 and G2532 six G1803 years G2094 was G3618 this G3778 temple G3485 in building, G3618 and G2532 wilt G1453 thou G4771 rear G1453 it G846 up G1453 in G1722 three G5140 days? G2250 [21] But G1161 he G1565 spake G3004 of G4012 the G3588 temple G3485 of his G846 body. G4983 [22] When G3753 therefore G3767 he was risen G1453 from G1537 the dead, G3498 his G846 disciples G3101 remembered G3415 that G3754 he had said G3004 this G5124 unto them; G846 and G2532 they believed G4100 the G3588 scripture, G1124 and G2532 the G3588 word G3056 which G3739 Jesus G2424 had said. G2036 [23] Now G1161 when G5613 he was G2258 in G1722 Jerusalem G2414 at G1722 the G3588 passover, G3957 in G1722 the G3588 feast G1859 day, many G4183 believed G4100 in G1519 his G846 name, G3686 when they saw G2334 G846 the G3588 miracles G4592 which G3739 he did. G4160 [24] G846 But G1161 Jesus G2424 did not G3756 commit G4100 himself G1438 unto them, G846 because G1223 he G846 knew G1097 all G3956 men, [25] and G2532 G3754 needed G5532 G2192 not G3756 that G2443 any G5100 should testify G3140 of G4012 man: G444 for G1063 he G846 knew G1097 what G5101 was G2258 in G1722 man.
