John 2

The Wedding at Cana

2And on athe third day there was a wedding in bCana of Galilee, and the cmother of Jesus was there; 2and both Jesus and His adisciples were invited to the wedding. 3And when the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, “They have no wine.” 4And Jesus *said to her, aWoman, 1,bwhat do I have to do with you? cMy hour has not yet come.” 5His amother *said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.6Now there were six stone water jars set there afor the Jewish custom of purification, containing 1two or three measures each. 7Jesus *said to them, Fill the water jars with water.” So they filled them up to the brim. 8And He *said to them, Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter.” So they took it to him. 9Now 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, 10and *said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the people ahave 1drunk freely, then the inferior wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.” 11Jesus did this in Cana of aGalilee as the beginning of His 1,bsigns, and manifested His cglory, and His disciples believed in Him.
12After this He went down to aCapernaum, He and His bmother and His cbrothers and His ddisciples; and they stayed there a few days.

Jesus Cleanses the Temple

13aAnd the Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus bwent up to Jerusalem. 14aAnd He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. 15And 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; 16and to those who were selling athe doves He said, Take these things away; stop making bMy Father’s house a 1place of business.” 17His adisciples remembered that it was written, “bZeal for Your house will consume me.” 18aThe Jews then said to Him, “bWhat sign do You show us 1as your authority for doing these things?” 19Jesus answered them, aDestroy this 1sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up.” 20aThe Jews then said, “It took bforty-six years to build this sanctuary, and will You raise it up in three days?” 21But He was speaking about athe sanctuary of His body. 22So 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.
23Now when He was in Jerusalem at athe Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, bwhen they saw His signs which He was doing. 24But Jesus, 1on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, for aHe knew all men, 25and because He had no need that anyone bear witness concerning man, afor He Himself knew what was in man.
