NASB Bible

John 2

Miracle at Cana

1

On  athe third day there was a wedding in  bCana of Galilee, and the  cmother of Jesus was there;

2

and both Jesus and His  adisciples were invited to the wedding.

3

When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, "They have no wine."

4

And Jesus *said to her, aWoman,  1 bwhat does that have to do with us?  cMy hour has not yet come."

5

His  amother *said to the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it."

6

Now there were six stone waterpots set there  afor the Jewish custom of purification, containing  1twenty or thirty gallons each.

7

Jesus *said to them, "Fill the waterpots with water." So they filled them up to the brim.

8

And He *said to them, "Draw some out now and take it to the  1headwaiter." So they took it to him.

9

When the headwaiter tasted the water  awhich had become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter *called the bridegroom,

10

and *said to him, "Every man serves the good wine first, and when the people  ahave  1drunk freely, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now."

11

This beginning of His  1 asigns Jesus did in Cana of  bGalilee, and manifested His  cglory, and His disciples believed in Him.

12

After this He went down to  aCapernaum, He and His  bmother and His  bbrothers and His  cdisciples; and they stayed there a few days.

First Passover--Cleansing the Temple

13

 aThe Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus  bwent up to Jerusalem.

14

 aAnd He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables.

15

And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables;

16

and to those who were selling  athe doves He said, "Take these things away; stop making  bMy Father's house a  1place of business."

17

His  adisciples remembered that it was written, " bZEAL FOR YOUR HOUSE WILL CONSUME ME."

18

 aThe Jews then said to Him, " bWhat sign do You show us  1as your authority for doing these things?"

19

Jesus answered them, aDestroy this  1temple, and in three days I will raise it up."

20

 aThe Jews then said, "It took  bforty-six years to build this  1temple, and will You raise it up in three days?"

21

But He was speaking of  athe  1temple of His body.

22

So when He was raised from the dead, His  adisciples  bremembered that He said this; and they believed  cthe Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

23

Now when He was in Jerusalem at  athe Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name,  bobserving His signs which He was doing.

24

But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, for  aHe knew all men,

25

and because He did not need anyone to testify concerning man,  afor He Himself knew what was in man.
