| Chapter 2 |
1 |
And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: --
|
2 |
And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage. --
|
3 |
And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. --
|
4 |
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. --
|
5 |
His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do [it]. --
|
6 |
And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. --
|
7 |
Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. --
|
8 |
And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare [it]. --
|
9 |
When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, --
|
10 |
And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: [but] thou hast kept the good wine until now. --
|
11 |
This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him. --
|
12 |
After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days. --
|
13 |
And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem, --
|
14 |
And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: --
|
15 |
And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables; --
|
16 |
And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise. --
|
17 |
And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up. --
|
18 |
Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things? --
|
19 |
Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. --
|
20 |
Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? --
|
21 |
But he spake of the temple of his body. --
|
22 |
When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said. --
|
23 |
Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast [day], many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did. --
|
24 |
But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all [men], --
|
25 |
And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man. --
