The Wedding at Cana
1On the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:
2and Jesus and His disciples were invited to the marriage.
3And they had no wine, because the wine of the marriage was exhausted. Then the mother of Jesus says to Him, There is no wine.
4And Jesus says to her, What is that to me and to thee? O woman, my hour is not yet come.
5His mother says to the servants, Do whatsoever He may say to you.
6And there were six waterpots of stone sitting there according to the purification of the Jews, containing about two or three firkins. Jesus says to them,
7Fill the waterpots with water. They filled them to the brim.
8And He says to them, Now draw out and carry to the chief ruler of the feast,
9and they brought it to him. And when the ruler of the feast tasted the water, having been made wine, and did not know whence it is (but the servants having drawn the water knew), the ruler calls the groom,
10and says to him, Every man first sets forth the good wine; and when they have drunk freely, the inferior: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.
11Jesus did this, the beginning of miracles, in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory; and His disciples believed on Him.
Jesus Cleanses the Temple
(Matthew 21:12–17; Mark 11:15–19; Luke 19:45–48)
12After this He and His mother, and His brothers and His disciples went down into Capernaum, and abode there not many days.
13And the passover of the Jews were nigh, 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 scourge of cords, He cast all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the money of the exchangers, and over-turned the tables.
16And He said to those selling doves; Take these things hence, make not the house of my Father a house of merchandise.
17And His disciples remembered that it is written, The zeal of thy house doth eat me up.
18Then the Jews responded and said to Him, What sign do you show us, because you do these things?
19Jesus responded and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will rear it up.
20Then the Jews said, Forty and six years was this temple being built, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21But He spoke concerning the temple of His body.
22Then when He arose from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said these things, and believed the Scripture and words which Jesus spoke.
23And when He was in Jerusalem at the feast, during the passover, many believed on His name, seeing His miracles which He was doing;
24and Jesus did not intrust Himself to them because He knows all men,
25and because He had no need that any one should witness concerning man; because He was knowing what was in man.
