John 2
1 Two days later there was a wedding [celebration] in Cana [town], in Galilee [district]. Jesus’ mother was there.
Tres días después se celebró una boda en Caná de Galilea, y la madre de Jesús estaba allí.
2 Jesus and [we] his disciples [were also there, because] we had been invited {someone had invited us} also.
Jesús y sus discípulos también fueron invitados a la boda.
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]?”
Cuando se acabó el vino, la madre de Jesús le dijo: No tienen vino.
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].”
Jesús le respondió: Mujer, ¿qué [nos toca] a Mí y a ti? Aún no [llega ] mi hora.
5 Then Jesus’ mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you!”
Su madre dijo a los que servían: Hagan lo que [Él] les diga.
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).
Estaban allí colocadas seis tinajas de piedra con agua que usaban para purificarse. Cada una tenía capacidad como para cien litros.
7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water!” So they filled the jars to the brim.
Jesús les mandó: Llenen las tinajas de agua. Y las llenaron hasta el borde.
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.
También les dijo: Ahora saquen agua y lleven al director de la fiesta. Y se la llevaron.
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,
Cuando el director de la fiesta probó el agua convertida en vino sin saber de donde salió, aunque los servidores lo sabían, llamó al esposo
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!”
y le dijo: Todo hombre sirve primero el buen vino, y cuando estén embriagados, el inferior. Pero tú guardaste el buen vino hasta ahora.
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].
Jesús realizó este primer milagro en Caná de Galilea, donde manifestó su gloria, y sus discípulos creyeron en Él.
12 Jesus then went down to Capernaum [city] with his mother and [younger] brothers and [us] his disciples. We stayed there several days.
Después de esto Él descendió a Cafarnaúm con su madre, [sus] hermanos y sus discípulos. Permanecieron allí pocos días.
13 Later, when it was almost time for the Jewish Passover [celebration], Jesus [and we his disciples] went up to Jerusalem.
Cuando se acercaba la Pascua de los judíos, Jesús subió a Jerusalén.
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.
Encontró en el Templo a los que vendían bueyes, ovejas y palomas, y a los cambistas sentados.
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.
Después de arreglar un azote de cuerdas, echó a todos del Templo, y también las ovejas y los bueyes. Desparramó la moneda de los cambistas, volcó las mesas
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!”
y dijo a los que vendían palomas: ¡Quiten éstas de aquí! ¡No conviertan la Casa de mi Padre en casa de mercado!
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.”
Recordaron sus discípulos que está escrito: El celo de tu Casa me consumirá.
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?”
Los judíos intervinieron: Ya que haces estas cosas, ¿qué señal nos muestras?
19 Jesus replied to them, “If/When you destroy this temple, I will build it again within three days.”
Jesús respondió: Destruyan este Templo y en tres días lo levantaré.
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]”
Los judíos dijeron: Este Templo fue edificado durante 46 años, ¿y Tú lo levantarás en tres días?
21 But when Jesus said that about the temple, [he was really talking about] his own body.
Pero Él hablaba del Templo de su cuerpo.
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].
Cuando [Él] fue resucitado de entre [los] muertos, sus discípulos recordaron que dijo esto y creyeron en la Escritura y en la Palabra de Jesús.
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.
Mientras [Jesús] estaba en Jerusalén en la fiesta de la Pascua, muchos creyeron en su Nombre cuando vieron las señales que hacía.
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].
Pero Jesús no confiaba en ellos porque conocía a todos.
25 He did not need anyone to tell him what others were thinking, because he already knew what they were [thinking and wanting].
No tenía necesidad de que alguien le diera testimonio acerca del hombre, porque sabía [lo] que había en él.
