1 On the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 Jesus also was invited, and his disciples, to the marriage.
3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.
4 Jesus saith unto her, What have I to do, woman? I have not come yet My hour.
5 His mother said to the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.
6 Now there were six waterpots of stone, [the custom of] purifying of the Jews, holding two or three measures.
7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the jars with water. And they filled them to the brim.
8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And suffered.
9 When the steward tasted the water that was made wine, --a he did not know where [the wine], but the servants knew who drew the water, --togda called the bridegroom
10 and he said to him: Every man at first the good wine, and when men have drunk freely, then the inferior; and you kept the good wine until now.
eleven So I put the beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and they believe in Him of His disciples.

12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brothers, and his disciples; and stayed there a few days.
13 Passover of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem
14 and found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting.
15 And making a whip of cords, and drove all from the temple, [and] the sheep and the oxen; and scattered the money from the money changers and overturned their tables.
16 And he said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence my Father's house a house of merchandise do not do.
17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.
18 The Jews said, What sign do you show us, that [have] [power] to do so?
19 Jesus said to them: Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews to build this temple forty-six years old, and thou in three days raise it up?
21 But he spoke of the temple of his body.
22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the scripture and the word which Jesus said.

23 And when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover feast, many, seeing the miracles which he did, believed in his name.
24 But Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because he knew all
25 And he needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.
