Miracle at Cana
1On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there; 2and both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. 3When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, “They have no wine.” 4And Jesus *said to her, “Woman, what does that have to do with us? My hour has not yet come.” 5His mother *said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.” 6Now there were six stone waterpots set there for the Jewish custom of purification, containing twenty or thirty gallons each. 7Jesus *said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim. 8And He *said to them, “Draw some out now and take it to the #Or stewardheadwaiter.” So they took it to him. 9When the headwaiter tasted the water which 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, 10and *said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the people have drunk freely, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.” 11This beginning of His signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.
12After this He went down to Capernaum, He and His mother and His brothers and His disciples; and they stayed there a few days.
First Passover—Cleansing the Temple
13The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. 15And 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; 16and to those who were selling the doves He said, “Take these things away; stop making My Father’s house a place of business.” 17His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for Your house will consume me.” 18The Jews then said to Him, “What sign do You show us as your authority for doing these things?” 19Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” 20The Jews then said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?” 21But He was speaking of the temple of His body. 22So when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.
23Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. 24But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men, 25and because He did not need anyone to testify concerning man, for He Himself knew what was in man.

John 2
2
1 And on the third day, a wedding was held in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 Now Jesus was also invited to the wedding, with his disciples.
3 And when the wine was failing, the mother of Jesus said to him, "They have no wine."
4 And Jesus said to her: "What is that to me and to you, woman? My hour has not yet arrived."
5 His mother said to the servants, "Do whatever he tells you."
6 Now in that place, there were six stone water jars, for the purification ritual of the Jews, containing two or three measures each.
7 Jesus said to them, "Fill the water jars with water." And they filled them to the very top.
8 And Jesus said to them, "Now draw from it, and carry it to the chief steward of the feast." And they took it to him.
9 Then, when the chief steward had tasted the water made into wine, since he did not know where it was from, for only the servants who had drawn the water knew, the chief steward called the groom,
10 and he said to him: "Every man offers the good wine first, and then, when they have become inebriated, he offers what is worse. But you have kept the good wine until now."
11 This was the beginning of the signs that Jesus accomplished in Cana of Galilee, and it manifested his glory, and his disciples believed in him.
12 After this, he descended to Capernaum, with his mother and his brothers and his disciples, but they did not remain there for many days.
13 And the Passover of the Jews was near, and so Jesus ascended to Jerusalem.
14 And he found, sitting in the temple, sellers of oxen and sheep and doves, and the moneychangers.
15 And when he had made something like a whip out of little cords, he drove them all out of the temple, including the sheep and the oxen. And he poured out the brass coins of the moneychangers, and he overturned their tables.
16 And to those who were selling doves, he said: "Take these things out of here, and do not make my Father's house into a house of commerce."
17 And truly, his disciples were reminded that it is written: "Zeal for your house consumes me."
18 Then the Jews responded and said to him, "What sign can you show to us, that you may do these things?"
19 Jesus responded and said to them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
20 Then the Jews said, "This temple has been built up over forty-six years, and you will raise it up in three days?"
21 Yet he was speaking about the Temple of his body.
22 Therefore, when he had resurrected from the dead, his disciples were reminded that he had said this, and they believed in the Scriptures and in the word that Jesus had spoken.
23 Now while he was at Jerusalem during the Passover, on the day of the feast, many trusted in his name, seeing his signs that he was accomplishing.
24 But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he himself had knowledge of all persons,
25 and because he had no need of anyone to offer testimony about a man. For he knew what was within a man.
