The Wedding at Cana

1And on the third day a wedding came to pass in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there, 2and also Jesus was invited, and His disciples, to the wedding. 3And the wine having fallen short, the mother of Jesus says to Him, “They have no wine.”

4And Jesus says to her, “What to Me and to you, woman? My hour is not yet come.”

5His mother says to the servants, “Whatever He may say to you⁺, do it.”

6Now there were six stone water jars lying there, according to the purification of the Jews, having space for two or three metretae.† 7Jesus says to them, “Fill the water jars with water.”

And they filled them up to the top.

8And He says to them, “Draw some out now and carry it to the master of the feast.”

And they carried it. 9And as the master of the feast tasted the water that has become wine, and he did not know from where it is—but the servants having drawn the water knew—the master of the feast calls the bridegroom 10and says to him, “Every man first sets out the good wine, and when they might have become drunk, the inferior; you have kept the good wine until now.”

11This was the beginning of the signs that Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and He revealed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.

Jesus Cleanses the Temple
(Matthew 21:12–17; Mark 11:15–19; Luke 19:45–48)

12After this, He went down to Capernaum, He and His mother and His brothers and His disciples, and there they stayed not many days.

13And the Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14And He found in the temple† those selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers sitting. 15And having made a whip out of cords, He cast out all from the temple, both sheep and oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned the tables. 16And to those selling the doves He said, “Take these from here! Do not make the house of My Father a house of trade!”

17His disciples remembered that it is written: “The zeal of Your house will consume Me.”†

18Therefore the Jews answered and said to Him, “What sign do You show to us that You do these things?”

19Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”

20Therefore the Jews said, “This temple was built in forty and six years, and You will raise it up in three days?”

21But He was speaking about the temple of His body. 22Therefore, when He was raised up out from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this,† and they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus said.

23And as He was in Jerusalem in the Passover, in the Feast, many believed in His name, beholding His signs that He was doing. 24But Jesus Himself was not entrusting Himself to them, because of His knowing all men, 25and because He had no need that anyone should testify about man, for He Himself knew what was in man.
