1 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:
1
On the third day a wedding took place in Cana of Galilee. Jesus' mother was there, and
2 and Jesus also was bidden, and his disciples, to the marriage.
2
Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding as well.
3 And when the wine failed, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.
3
When the wine ran out, Jesus' mother told Him, "They don't have any wine."
4 And Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.
4
"What has this concern of yours to do with Me, woman?" Jesus asked. "My hour has not yet come."
5 His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.
5
"Do whatever He tells you," His mother told the servants.
6 Now there were six waterpots of stone set there after the Jews' manner of purifying, containing two or three firkins apiece.
6
Now six stone water jars had been set there for Jewish purification. Each contained 20 or 30 gallons.
7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
7
"Fill the jars with water," Jesus told them. So they filled them to the brim.
8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the ruler of the feast. And they bare it.
8
Then He said to them, "Now draw some out and take it to the chief servant." And they did.
9 And when the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and knew not whence it was (but the servants that had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast calleth the bridegroom,
9
When the chief servant tasted the water (after it had become wine), he did not know where it came from-though the servants who had drawn the water knew. He called the groom
10 and saith unto him, Every man setteth on first the good wine; and when [men] have drunk freely, [then] that which is worse: thou hast kept the good wine until now.
10
and told him, "Everybody sets out the fine wine first, then, after people have drunk freely, the inferior. But you have kept the fine wine until now."
11 This beginning of his signs did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
11
Jesus performed this first sign in Cana of Galilee. He displayed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.
12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and [his] brethren, and his disciples; and there they abode not many days.
12
After this, He went down to Capernaum, together with His mother, His brothers, and His disciples, and they stayed there only a few days.
13 And the passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
13
The Jewish Passover was near, so Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 And he found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:
14
In the temple complex He found people selling oxen, sheep, and doves, and [He also found] the money changers sitting there.
15 and he made a scourge of cords, and cast all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the changers' money, and overthrew their tables;
15
After making a whip out of cords, He drove everyone out of the temple complex with their sheep and oxen. He also poured out the money changers' coins and overturned the tables.
16 and to them that sold the doves he said, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise.
16
He told those who were selling doves, "Get these things out of here! Stop turning My Father's house into a marketplace!"
17 His disciples remembered that it was written, Zeal for thy house shall eat me up.
17
And His disciples remembered that it is written: Zeal for Your house will consume Me.
18 The Jews therefore answered and said unto him, What sign showest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?
18
So the Jews replied to Him, "What sign [of authority] will You show us for doing these things?"
19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
19
Jesus answered, "Destroy this sanctuary, and I will raise it up in three days."
20 The Jews therefore said, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou raise it up in three days?
20
Therefore the Jews said, "This sanctuary took 46 years to build, and will You raise it up in three days?"
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
21
But He was speaking about the sanctuary of His body.
22 When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he spake this; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
22
So when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this. And they believed the Scripture and the statement Jesus had made.
23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, during the feast, many believed on his name, beholding his signs which he did.
23
While He was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many trusted in His name when they saw the signs He was doing.
24 But Jesus did not trust himself unto them, for that he knew all men,
24
Jesus, however, would not entrust Himself to them, since He knew them all
25 and because he needed not that any one should bear witness concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
25
and because He did not need anyone to testify about man; for He Himself knew what was in man.
