Chapter Text
2:1 And the thirde day, was there a mariage in Cana a towne of Galile, and the mother of Iesus was there.
2:2 And Iesus was called also, and his disciples vnto the mariage.
2:3 Nowe when the wine failed, the mother of Iesus saide vnto him, They haue no wine.
2:4 Iesus saide vnto her, Woman, what haue I to doe with thee? mine houre is not yet come.
2:5 His mother saide vnto the seruants, Whatsoeuer he sayeth vnto you, doe it.
2:6 And there were set there, sixe waterpots of stone, after the maner of the purifying of the Iewes, conteining two or three firkins a piece.
2:7 And Iesus sayde vnto them, Fill the waterpots with water. Then they filled them vp to the brim.
2:8 Then he sayde vnto them, Draw out nowe and beare vnto the gouernour of the feast. So they bare it.
2:9 Nowe when the gouernour of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, (for he knewe not whence it was: but the seruants, which drewe the water, knewe) the gouernour of ye feast called the bridegrome,
2:10 And saide vnto him, All men at the beginning set foorth good wine, and when men haue well drunke, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept backe the good wine vntill nowe.
2:11 This beginning of miracles did Iesus in Cana a towne of Galile, and shewed forth his glorie: and his disciples beleeued on him.
2:12 After that, he went downe into Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: but they continued not many daies there.
2:13 For the Iewes Passeouer was at hande. Therefore Iesus went vp to Hierusalem.
2:14 And he found in the Temple those that sold oxen, and sheepe, and doues, and changers of money, sitting there.
2:15 Then hee made a scourge of small cordes, and draue them all out of the Temple with the sheepe and oxen, and powred out the changers money, and ouerthrewe the tables,
2:16 And said vnto them that solde doues, Take these things hence: make not my fathers house, an house of marchandise.
2:17 And his disciples remembred, that it was written, The zeale of thine house hath eaten me vp.
2:18 Then answered the Iewes, and saide vnto him, What signe shewest thou vnto vs, that thou doest these things?
2:19 Iesus answered, and said vnto them, Destroy this Temple, and in three daies I will raise it vp againe.
2:20 Then said the Iewes, Fourtie and sixe yeeres was this Temple a building, and wilt thou reare it vp in three daies?
2:21 But he spake of the temple of his bodie.
2:22 Assoone therefore as he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembred that hee thus sayde vnto them: and they beleeued the Scripture, and the worde which Iesus had saide.
2:23 Nowe when hee was at Hierusalem at the Passeouer in the feast, many beleeued in his Name, when they sawe his miracles which he did.
2:24 But Iesus did not commit him selfe vnto them, because he knewe them all,
2:25 And had no neede that any should testifie of man: for he knewe what was in man.
