The Wedding at Cana

¹On hthe third day there was a wedding at iCana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. ²Jesus also was invited to the wedding with jhis disciples. ³When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” ⁴And Jesus said to her, k“Woman, lwhat does this have to do with me? mMy hour has not yet come.” ⁵His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”

⁶Now there were six stone water jars there nfor the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty ogallons.1 ⁷Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” And they filled them up to the brim. ⁸And he said to them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the feast.” So they took it. ⁹When the master of the feast tasted pthe water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom ¹⁰and said to him, “Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now.” ¹¹This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested qhis glory. And rhis disciples believed in him.

¹²After this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother and shis brothers2 and his disciples, and they stayed there for a few days.

Jesus Cleanses the Temple

¹³tThe Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus uwent up to Jerusalem. ¹⁴vIn the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there. ¹⁵And making a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and oxen. And he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables. ¹⁶And he told those who sold the pigeons, “Take these things away; do not make wmy Father's house a house of trade.” ¹⁷His disciples remembered that it was written, x“Zeal for your house will consume me.”

¹⁸So the Jews said to him, y“What sign do you show us for doing these things?” ¹⁹Jesus answered them, z“Destroy this temple, and in three days aI will raise it up.” ²⁰The Jews then said, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple,3 and will you raise it up in three days?” ²¹But he was speaking about bthe temple of his body. ²²When therefore he was raised from the dead, chis disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed dthe Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.
