John 2:1 |
On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there; |
|
|
John 2:2 |
and both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. |
|
|
John 2:3 |
When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, "They have no wine." |
|
|
John 2:4 |
And Jesus *said to her, "Woman, what does that have to do with us? My hour has not yet come." |
|
|
John 2:5 |
His mother *said to the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it." |
|
|
John 2:6 |
Now there were six stone waterpots set there for the Jewish custom of purification, containing twenty or thirty gallons each. |
|
 |
John 2:7 |
Jesus *said to them, "Fill the waterpots with water." So they filled them up to the brim. |
|
|
John 2:8 |
And He *said to them, "Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter." So they took it to him. |
|
|
John 2:9 |
When the headwaiter tasted the water which 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, |
|
|
John 2:10 |
and *said to him, "Every man serves the good wine first, and when the people have drunk freely, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now." |
|
|
John 2:11 |
This beginning of His signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him. |
|
|
John 2:12 |
After this He went down to Capernaum, He and His mother and His brothers and His disciples; and they stayed there a few days. |
|
|
John 2:13 |
The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. |
|
|
John 2:14 |
And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. |
|
|
John 2:15 |
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; |
|
|
John 2:16 |
and to those who were selling the doves He said, "Take these things away; stop making My Father's house a place of business." |
|
|
John 2:17 |
His disciples remembered that it was written, "ZEAL FOR YOUR HOUSE WILL CONSUME ME." |
|
|
John 2:18 |
The Jews then said to Him, "What sign do You show us as your authority for doing these things?" |
|
|
John 2:19 |
Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." |
|
|
John 2:20 |
The Jews then said, "It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?" |
|
|
John 2:21 |
But He was speaking of the temple of His body. |
|
|
John 2:22 |
So when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken. |
|
|
John 2:23 |
Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. |
|
|
John 2:24 |
But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men, |
|
|
John 2:25 |
and because He did not need anyone to testify concerning man, for He Himself knew what was in man. |
