< John 2 >

1 And, on the third day, a marriage, took place, in Cana, of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there, —
And on the third day there was a feast in Cana, a city of Galilee: and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 and Jesus also was invited, with his disciples, unto the marriage.
And also Jesus and his disciples were invited to the feast.
3 And, wine falling short, the mother of Jesus saith unto him—Wine, have they none!
And the wine fell short: and his mother said to Jesus: They have no wine.
4 And Jesus saith unto her—What part can I take with thee, O woman? Not yet, hath come, mine hour.
Jesus said to her: What is in common to me and thee? Not yet hath my hour come.
5 His mother saith unto them who are ministering—Whatsoever he may say to you, do!
His mother said to the waiters: Whatever he saith to you, do it.
6 Now there were there, six stone water-vessels, placed, according to the purification of the Jews; holding each, two or three measures.
And there were there six waterpots of stone, set for the purification of Jews, containing each two or three quadrantalia.
7 Jesus saith unto them—Fill the vessels with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
Jesus said to them: Fill those water-pots with water. And they filled them to the top.
8 And he saith unto them—Draw out now, and be bearing unto the master of the feast. And they bare.
He said to them: Draw now, and carry to the master of the feast. And they carried.
9 And, when the master of the feast had tasted the water, now made, wine, and knew not whence it was, —though, they who were ministering, knew, even they who had drawn out the water, the master accosteth the bridegroom,
And when the master of the feast tasted the water that had become wine, and did not know whence it came, (although the waiters knew, as they had filled the pots with water, ) the master of the feast called the bridegroom,
10 and saith unto him—Every man, first the good wine, setteth out; and, when they had been well-supplied, the inferior: —Thou, hast kept the good wine until, even now.
and said to him: Every man first bringeth forward the good wine, and when they are satiated, then that which is inferior; but thou hast kept the good wine till now.
11 This, beginning of his signs, did Jesus, in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
This is the first sign, which Jesus wrought at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory: and his disciples believed on him.
12 After this, he came down into Capernaum, —he, and his mother and brethren, and his disciples; and, there, they abode, not many days.
Afterwards he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother and his brothers and his disciples; and they were there a few days.
13 And, near, was the passover of the Jews; and, Jesus, went up unto Jerusalem.
And the pass over of the Jews drew near; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 And he found, in the temple, them that were selling oxen and sheep and doves, also the money-changers sitting.
And he found in the temple those who sold beeves and sheep and doves, and the money-changers sitting there.
15 And, making a scourge out of rushes, all of them, thrust he forth out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and, the money-changers’ small coins, poured he forth, and, the tables, he overturned;
And he made himself a whip from a cord, and turned them all out of the temple, and the sheep and the beeves and the money-changers; and he poured out their money, and overset their tables:
16 and unto them who were selling, the doves, he said—Take these things hence! Be not making, the house of my Father, a house of merchandise.
and he said to them that sold doves, Take away these things; and make not my Father's house a house of traffic.
17 His disciples remembered that it was written—The zeal of thy house, eateth me up.
And his disciples remembered, that it is written: The zeal of thy house hath devoured me.
18 The Jews therefore answered, and said unto him, What sign, dost thou point out to us, in that, these things, thou doest?
But the Jews replied, and said to him: What sign showest thou to us, since thou doest these things?
19 Jesus answered, and said unto them—Take down this shrine, and, in three days, will I raise it.
Jesus answered, and said to them: Demolish this temple, and in three days I will again erect it.
20 The Jews, therefore, said—In forty and six years, was this shrine built. And, thou, in three days, wilt raise it!
The Jews said to him: Forty and six years, this temple was building; and wilt thou build it again in three days?
21 But, he, was speaking concerning the shrine of his body.
But he spake of the temple of his body.
22 When, therefore, he had been raised from among the dead, his disciples remembered, that, this, he had been saying; and they believed in the Scripture, and in the word which Jesus had spoken.
And when he was arisen from the dead, his disciples remembered, that he spoke this: and they believed the scriptures, and the word that Jesus spake.
23 Now, when he was in Jerusalem, during the passover, during the feast, many, believed on his name, viewing his signs which he was doing.
And while Jesus was in Jerusalem, at the feast of the passover, many believed on him, because they saw the signs he wrought.
24 Jesus himself, however, was not trusting himself unto them, by reason of his understanding them all,
But Jesus did not confide himself to them; because he knew all men:
25 and because he had, no need, that anyone should bear witness concerning man; for, he, understood what was in man.
And he needed not that any one should testify to him respecting any man; for he himself knew what is in man.
