[1]And the third day, was there a marriage in Cana a town of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
[2]And Jesus was called also, and his disciples unto the marriage.
[3]Now when the wine failed, the mother of Jesus said unto him, They have no wine.
[4]Jesus said unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.
[5]His mother said unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.
[6]And there were set there, six water pots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.
[7]And Jesus said unto them, Fill the water pots with water. Then they filled them up to the brim.
[8]Then he said unto them, Draw out now and bear unto the governor of the feast. So they bare it.
[9]Now when the governor of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, (for he knew not whence it was: but the servants, which drew the water, knew) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
[10]And said unto him, All men at the beginning set forth good wine, and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept back the good wine until now.
[11]This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana a town of Galilee, and showed forth his glory: and his disciples believed on him.
[12]After that he went down into Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: but they continued not many days there.
[13]For the Jews Passover was at hand. Therefore Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
[14]And he found in the Temple those that sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and changers of money, sitting there.
[15]Then he made a scourge of small cords, and drove them all out of the Temple with the sheep, and 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 Fathers 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 showest thou unto us, that thou doest these things?
[19]Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this Temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.
[20]Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this Temple a building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
[21]But he spake of the temple of his body.
[22]As soon therefore as he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he thus said unto them: and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
[23]Now when he was at Jerusalem at the Passover in the feast, many believed in his Name, when they saw his miracles which he did.
[24]But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew them all,
[25]And had no need that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.
