3 When the guests had drunk all the wine [that was there], Jesus’ mother said to him, “The wine is all gone; [can you do something about that]?”
and to lack wine to say the/this/who mother the/this/who Jesus to/with it/s/he wine no to have/be
4 Jesus said to her, “Ma’am/Woman, (do not [tell] me [what to do]!/why do you [tell] me [what to do]?) [RHQ] It is not yet time [MTY] [to show] that I am [the Messiah by working miracles].”
(and *no) to say it/s/he the/this/who Jesus which? I/we and you woman not yet to come/be present the/this/who hour me
5 Then Jesus’ mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you!”
to say the/this/who mother it/s/he the/this/who servant (which one *NK+o) if to say you to do/make: do
6 There were six [empty] stone jars there. The Jews [habitually put water in them] to use for washing things [to make them acceptable to God]. Each jar held (20 to 30 gallons/80 to 120 liters).
to be then there stone jar six according to the/this/who cleansing the/this/who Jew to lay/be appointed to make room for each measure two or Three
7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water!” So they filled the jars to the brim.

8 Then he told them, “Now, ladle out some [of it] and take it (to the head waiter/to the master of ceremonies).” So the servants did that.
and to say it/s/he to draw now and to bear/lead the/this/who head waiter (the/this/who *no) (then *N+kO) to bear/lead
9 (The head waiter/The master of ceremonies) tasted the water, which had now become wine. He did not know where the wine had come from, but the servants who had ladled out the wine knew. [The wine was delicious]! So he called the bridegroom over,
as/when then to taste the/this/who head waiter the/this/who water wine to be and no to perceive: see whence to be the/this/who then servant to perceive: see the/this/who to draw the/this/who water to call the/this/who bridegroom the/this/who head waiter
10 and said to him, “Everyone [else] serves the best wine first. Then when the guests have drunk so much [that they cannot tell the difference], [they serve] the cheap wine. But you [have not done what others do]. You have kept the best wine until now!”
and to say it/s/he all a human first the/this/who good wine to place and when(-ever) to get drunk (then *ko) the/this/who lesser you to keep: protect the/this/who good wine until now
11 That was the first miracle that Jesus did. He did it in Cana [town], in Galilee [district]. By doing it he showed how awesome he is, and as a result, [we] his disciples believed that he [truly was the Messiah].
this/he/she/it to do/make: do (the/this/who *k) beginning the/this/who sign the/this/who Jesus in/on/among Cana the/this/who Galilee and to reveal the/this/who glory it/s/he and to trust (in) toward it/s/he the/this/who disciple it/s/he
12 Jesus then went down to Capernaum [city] with his mother and [younger] brothers and [us] his disciples. We stayed there several days.
with/after this/he/she/it to come/go down toward Capernaum it/s/he and the/this/who mother it/s/he and the/this/who brother it/s/he and the/this/who disciple it/s/he and there to stay no much day
13 Later, when it was almost time for the Jewish Passover [celebration], Jesus [and we his disciples] went up to Jerusalem.
and near to be the/this/who Passover lamb the/this/who Jew and to ascend toward Jerusalem the/this/who Jesus
14 There, in the Temple [courtyard], he saw some men who were selling cattle, sheep, and pigeons [for sacrifices]. He also saw men who were sitting at tables, [making a big profit as they] gave people [Temple tax] coins in exchange for [their Roman] coins.
and to find/meet in/on/among the/this/who temple the/this/who to sell ox and sheep and dove and the/this/who moneychanger to sit
15 Then Jesus made a whip from some cords and [used it to] chase out the sheep and cattle from the Temple [courtyard]. By overturning their tables he scattered the coins of the men who were exchanging them.
and to do/make: do whip out from rope all to expel out from the/this/who temple the/this/who and/both sheep and the/this/who ox and the/this/who moneychanger to pour out (the/this/who coin *NK+o) and the/this/who table (to overturn *N+kO)
16 He said to those who were selling doves, “Take these doves away [from here]! Stop [defiling] my Father’s Temple [by] making it a market!”
and the/this/who the/this/who dove to sell to say to take up this/he/she/it from here not to do/make: do the/this/who house: home the/this/who father me house: home marketplace/trade
17 Then [we] disciples remembered that these words had been written {that [someone/David] had written [these words]} [in the Scriptures prophesying what the Messiah would say]: “Others [PRS] will strongly oppose me because I greatly desire that [people respect] your Sacred Tent.”
to remember (then *k) the/this/who disciple it/s/he that/since: that to write to be the/this/who zeal the/this/who house: home you (to devour *N+kO) me
18 So [one of] the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] replied to him, “What miracle will you perform to show us that [you have authority from God] to do these things?”
to answer therefore/then the/this/who Jew and to say it/s/he which? sign to show me that/since: that this/he/she/it to do/make: do
19 Jesus replied to them, “If/When you destroy this temple, I will build it again within three days.”
to answer (the/this/who *k) Jesus and to say it/s/he to loose the/this/who temple this/he/she/it and in/on/among Three day to arise it/s/he
20 So the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] said, “We have been building this Temple for 46 years [and it is not finished yet]! So (there is no way you will build it within three days!/how will you build it within three days?) [RHQ]”
to say therefore/then the/this/who Jew forty and six year to build the/this/who temple this/he/she/it and you in/on/among Three day to arise it/s/he
21 But when Jesus said that about the temple, [he was really talking about] his own body.
that then to say about the/this/who temple the/this/who body it/s/he
22 [Later], after Jesus had [died and had] become alive again, [we] his disciples remembered the words he had said. As a result, we believed [what had been prophesied in] the Scriptures [about the Messiah becoming alive again], and we believed that what Jesus said [was true].
when therefore/then to arise out from dead to remember the/this/who disciple it/s/he that/since: that this/he/she/it to say (it/s/he *k) and to trust (in) the/this/who a writing and the/this/who word (which *N+kO) to say the/this/who Jesus
23 While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover celebration, many people came to believe [that he was the Messiah] because they saw the miracles he was performing.
as/when then to be in/on/among the/this/who Jerusalem in/on/among the/this/who Passover lamb in/on/among the/this/who festival much to trust (in) toward the/this/who name it/s/he to see/experience it/s/he the/this/who sign which to do/make: do
24 But he did not let them tell him what he should do [as the Messiah], because he knew within himself what they were all [thinking].
it/s/he then (the/this/who *k) Jesus no to trust (in) (it/s/he *N+kO) it/s/he through/because of the/this/who it/s/he to know all
25 He did not need anyone to tell him what others were thinking, because he already knew what they were [thinking and wanting].
and that/since: since no need to have/be in order that/to one to testify about the/this/who a human it/s/he for to know which? to be in/on/among the/this/who a human
