John 2

Good News Translation GNT

1 Two days later there was a wedding in the town of Cana in Galilee. Jesus' mother was there,

2 and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding.

3 When the wine had given out, Jesus' mother said to him, "They are out of wine."

4 "You must not tell me what to do," Jesus replied. "My time has not yet come."

5 Jesus' mother then told the servants, "Do whatever he tells you."

6 The Jews have rules about ritual washing, and for this purpose six stone water jars were there, each one large enough to hold between twenty and thirty gallons.

7 Jesus said to the servants, "Fill these jars with water." They filled them to the brim,

8 and then he told them, "Now draw some water out and take it to the man in charge of the feast." They took him the water,

9 which now had turned into wine, and he tasted it. He did not know where this wine had come from (but, of course, the servants who had drawn out the water knew); so he called the bridegroom

10 and said to him, "Everyone else serves the best wine first, and after the guests have drunk a lot, he serves the ordinary wine. But you have kept the best wine until now!"

11 Jesus performed this first miracle in Cana in Galilee; there he revealed his glory, and his disciples believed in him.

12 After this, Jesus and his mother, brothers, and disciples went to Capernaum and stayed there a few days.

13 It was almost time for the Passover Festival, so Jesus went to Jerusalem.

14 There in the Temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and pigeons, and also the moneychangers sitting at their tables.

15 So he made a whip from cords and drove all the animals out of the Temple, both the sheep and the cattle; he overturned the tables of the moneychangers and scattered their coins;

16 and he ordered those who sold the pigeons, "Take them out of here! Stop making my Father's house a marketplace!"

17 His disciples remembered that the scripture says, "My devotion to your house, O God, burns in me like a fire."

18 The Jewish authorities came back at him with a question, "What miracle can you perform to show us that you have the right to do this?"

19 Jesus answered, "Tear down this Temple, and in three days I will build it again."

20 "Are you going to build it again in three days?" they asked him. "It has taken forty-six years to build this Temple!"

21 But the temple Jesus was speaking about was his body.

22 So when he was raised from death, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the scripture and what Jesus had said.

23 While Jesus was in Jerusalem during the Passover Festival, many believed in him as they saw the miracles he performed.

24 But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew them all.

25 There was no need for anyone to tell him about them, because he himself knew what was in their hearts.

1 The third day, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee. Jesus' mother was there.

2 Jesus also was invited, with his disciples, to the marriage.

3 When the wine ran out, Jesus' Mother said to him, "They have no wine."

4 Jesus said to her, "Woman, what does that have to do with you and me? My hour has not yet come."

5 His mother said to the servants, "Whatever he says to you, do it."

6 Now there were six water pots of stone set there after the Jews' manner of purifying, containing two or three metretes apiece.

7 Jesus said to them, "Fill the water pots with water." They filled them up to the brim.

8 He said to them, "Now draw some out, and take it to the ruler of the feast." They took it.

9 When the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and didn't know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast called the bridegroom,

10 and said to him, "Everyone serves the good wine first, and when the guests have drunk freely, then that which is worse. You have kept the good wine until now!"

11 This beginning of his signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

12 After this, he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, his brothers, and his disciples; and there they stayed not many days.

13 The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

14 He found in the temple those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, and the changers of money sitting.

15 He made a whip of cords, and threw all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the changers' money, and overthrew their tables.

16 To those who sold the doves, he said, "Take these things out of here! Don't make my Father's house a marketplace!"

17 His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for your house will eat me up."

18 The Jews therefore answered him, "What sign do you show to us, seeing that you do these things?"

19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."

20 The Jews therefore said, "Forty-six years was this temple in building, and will you raise it up in three days?"

21 But he spoke of the temple of his body.

22 When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this, and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in his name, observing his signs which he did.

24 But Jesus didn't trust himself to them, because he knew all people,

25 and because he didn't need for anyone to testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
