John 2
2
1And on the third day a marriage took place in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2And Jesus also, and his disciples, were invited to the marriage. 3And wine being deficient, the mother of Jesus says to him, They have no wine. 4Jesus says to her, What have I to do with thee, woman? mine hour has not yet come. 5His mother says to the servants, Whatever he may say to you, do. 6Now there were standing there six stone water-vessels, according to the purification of the Jews, holding two or three measures each. 7Jesus says to them, Fill the water-vessels with water. And they filled them up to the brim. 8And he says to them, Draw out now, and carry it to the feast-master. And they carried it. 9But when the feast-master had tasted the water which had been made wine (and knew not whence it was, but the servants knew who drew the water), the feast-master calls the bridegroom, 10and says to him, Every man sets on first the good wine, and when men have well drunk, then the inferior; thou hast kept the good wine till now. 11This beginning of signs did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
12After this he descended to Capernaum, he and his mother and his brethren and his disciples; and there they abode not many days. 13And the passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14And he found in the temple the sellers of oxen and sheep and doves, and the money-changers sitting; 15and, having made a scourge of cords, he cast them all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the change of the money-changers, and overturned the tables, 16and said to the sellers of doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise. 17And his disciples remembered that it is written, The zeal of thy house devours me. 18The Jews therefore answered and said to him, What sign shewest thou to us, that thou doest these things? 19Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20The Jews therefore said, Forty and six years was this temple building, and thou wilt raise it up in three days? 21But he spoke of the temple of his body. 22When therefore he was raised from among the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and believed the scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.
23And when he was in Jerusalem, at the passover, at the feast, many believed on his name, beholding his signs which he wrought. 24But Jesus himself did not trust himself to them, because he knew all men, 25and that he had not need that any should testify of man, for himself knew what was in man.

Water to Wine
1On the third day, there was a wedding at Cana in the Galilee. Yeshua’s mother was there,
2and Yeshua and His disciples were also invited to the wedding.
3When the wine ran out, Yeshua’s mother said to Him, “They don’t have any wine!”
4Yeshua said to her, “Woman, what does this have to do with you and Me? My hour hasn’t come yet.”
5His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever He tells you.”
6Now there were six stone jars, used for the Jewish ritual of purification, each holding two to three measures.
7Yeshua said to them, “Fill the jars with water!” So they filled them up to the top.
8Then He said to them, “Take some water out, and give it to the headwaiter.” And they brought it.
9Now the headwaiter did not know where it had come from, but the servants who had drawn the water knew. As the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, he calls the bridegroom
10and says to him, “Everyone brings out the good wine first, and whenever they are drunk, then the worse. But you’ve reserved the good wine until now!”
11Yeshua did this, the first of the signs, in Cana of the Galilee—He revealed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.
Yeshua Purges the Temple
12After this Yeshua went down to Capernaum with His mother, brothers, and disciples, and they stayed there a few days.
13The Jewish feast of Passover was near, so Yeshua went up to Jerusalem.
14In the Temple, He found the merchants selling oxen, sheep, and doves; also the moneychangers sitting there.
15Then He made a whip of cords and drove them all out of the Temple, both the sheep and oxen. He dumped out the coins of the moneychangers and overturned their tables.
16To those selling doves, He said, “Get these things out of here! Stop making My Father’s house a marketplace!”
17His disciples remembered that it is written, “Zeal for your House will consume Me!”
18The Judean leaders responded, “What sign do You show us, since You are doing these things?”
19“Destroy this Temple,” Yeshua answered them, “and in three days I will raise it up.”
20The Judean leaders then said to Him, “Forty-six years this Temple was being built, and You will raise it up in three days?”
21But He was talking about the temple of His body.
22So after He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He was talking about this. Then they believed the Scripture and the word that Yeshua had spoken.
23Now when He was in Jerusalem for the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, seeing the signs He was doing.
24But Yeshua did not entrust Himself to them, because He knew all men.
25He did not need anyone to testify about man, for He knew what was in man.
