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. |
