The Good News According to Yochanan, Chapter 2
{2:1} The third day, there was a marriage in Kanah of the Galil.
Yeshua#s mother was there. {2:2} Yeshua also was invited, with his
[1>]talmidim[<1], to the marriage. {2:3} When the wine ran out,
Yeshua#s mother said to him, "They have no wine."
{2:4} Yeshua said to her, "Woman, what does that have to do with you
and me? My hour has not yet come."
{2:5} His mother said to the servants, "Whatever he says to you, do
it." {2:6} Now there were six water pots of stone set there after the
Yehudim' manner of purifying, containing two or three metretes apiece.
{2:7} Yeshua said to them, "Fill the water pots with water." They
filled them up to the brim. {2:8} He said to them, "Now draw some out,
and take it to the ruler of the feast." So they took it. {2:9} 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, {2:10} 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!" {2:11} This beginning of his signs Yeshua did in Kanah of
the Galil, and revealed his glory; and his [2>]talmidim[<2] believed
in him.
{2:12} After this, he went down to Kafar-Nachum, he, and his mother,
his brothers, and his [3>]talmidim[<3]; and they stayed there a few
days. {2:13} The Pesach of the Yehudim was at hand, and Yeshua went up
to Yerushalayim. {2:14} He found in the temple those who sold oxen,
sheep, and doves, and the changers of money sitting. {2:15} 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. {2:16} To those who sold the doves, he said, "Take these
things out of here! Don't make my Father's house a marketplace!"
{2:17} His [4>]talmidim[<4] remembered that it was written, "Zeal for
your house will eat me up."
{2:18} The Yehudim therefore answered him, "What sign do you show
us, seeing that you do these things?"
{2:19} Yeshua answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days
I will raise it up."
{2:20} The Yehudim therefore said, "Forty-six years was this temple
in building, and will you raise it up in three days?" {2:21} But he
spoke of the temple of his body. {2:22} When therefore he was raised
from the dead, his [5>]talmidim[<5] remembered that he said this, and
they believed the Scripture, and the word which Yeshua had said.
{2:23} Now when he was in Yerushalayim at the Pesach, during the
feast, many believed in his name, observing his signs which he did.
{2:24} But Yeshua didn't trust himself to them, because he knew
everyone, {2:25} and because he didn't need for anyone to testify
concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
