Ang Kasalan sa Cana

Pagkalipas ng dalawang araw, may ginanap na kasalan sa bayan ng Cana na sakop ng Galilea. Naroon ang ina ni Jesus. Inimbita rin si Jesus at ang mga tagasunod niya. Nang maubos ang alak sa handaan, sinabi ng ina ni Jesus sa kanya, “Naubusan sila ng alak.” Sumagot si Jesus, “Babae,[a] huwag po ninyo akong pangunahan. Hindi pa po dumarating ang panahon ko.” Sinabi ng ina ni Jesus sa mga katulong, “Sundin ninyo ang anumang iutos niya.”

May anim na tapayan doon na ginagamit ng mga Judio sa ritwal nilang paghuhugas.[b] Ang bawat tapayan ay naglalaman ng 20 hanggang 30 galon ng tubig. Sinabi ni Jesus sa mga katulong, “Punuin ninyo ng tubig ang mga tapayan.” At pinuno nga nila ang mga ito. Pagkatapos, sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Sumalok kayo at dalhin sa namamahala ng handaan.” Sumalok nga sila at dinala sa namamahala. Tinikman ng namamahala ang tubig na naging alak. Hindi niya alam kung saan nanggaling ang alak. (Pero alam ito ng mga katulong na sumalok ng tubig.) Kaya ipinatawag niya ang lalaking ikinasal 10 at sinabi, “Karaniwan, ang pinakamainam na alak muna ang inihahanda, at kapag marami nang nainom ang mga tao, saka naman inilalabas ang ordinaryong alak. Pero iba ka, dahil ngayon mo lang inilabas ang espesyal na alak.”

11 Ang nangyaring ito sa Cana, Galilea ay ang unang himala na ginawa ni Jesus. Sa ginawa niyang ito, ipinakita niya ang kanyang kapangyarihan, at sumampalataya sa kanya ang mga tagasunod niya.

12 Pagkatapos ng kasalan, pumunta si Jesus sa Capernaum, kasama ang kanyang ina, mga kapatid, at mga tagasunod. Nanatili sila roon ng ilang araw.

Ang Pagmamalasakit ni Jesus sa Templo(A)

13 Malapit na noon ang pista ng mga Judio na tinatawag na Pista ng Paglampas ng Anghel,[c] kaya pumunta si Jesus sa Jerusalem. 14 Nakita niya roon sa templo ang mga nagtitinda ng mga baka, tupa at mga kalapati. Nakita rin niya ang mga nagpapalit ng pera ng mga dayuhan sa kanilang mga mesa. 15 Kaya gumawa siya ng panghagupit na lubid, at itinaboy niya palabas ng templo ang mga baka at tupa. Ikinalat niya ang mga pera ng mga nagpapalit at itinaob ang mga mesa nila. 16 Sinabi ni Jesus sa mga nagtitinda ng mga kalapati, “Alisin ninyo ang mga iyan! Huwag ninyong gawing palengke ang bahay ng aking Ama!” 17 Naalala ng mga tagasunod niya ang nakasulat sa Kasulatan: “Mapapahamak ako dahil sa pagmamalasakit ko sa bahay ninyo.”[d]

18 Dahil sa ginawa niyang ito, tinanong siya ng mga pinuno ng mga Judio, “Anong himala ang maipapakita mo sa amin upang mapatunayan mong may karapatan kang gawin ito?” 19 Sinagot sila ni Jesus, “Gibain ninyo ang templong ito, at sa loob ng tatlong araw ay itatayo kong muli.” 20 Sinabi naman nila, “Ginawa ang templong ito ng 46 na taon at itatayo mo sa loob lang ng tatlong araw?” 21 Pero hindi nila naintindihan na ang templong tinutukoy ni Jesus ay ang kanyang katawan. 22 Kaya nang nabuhay siyang muli, naalala ng mga tagasunod niya ang sinabi niyang ito. At naniwala sila sa pahayag ng Kasulatan at sa mga sinabi ni Jesus tungkol sa kanyang muling pagkabuhay.

Alam ni Jesus ang Kalooban ng Tao

23 Habang si Jesus ay nasa Jerusalem, nang Pista ng Paglampas ng Anghel, marami ang sumampalataya sa kanya nang makita nila ang mga himalang ginawa niya. 24 Pero hindi nagtiwala si Jesus sa pananampalataya nila, dahil kilala niya ang lahat ng tao. 25 At hindi na kailangang may magsabi pa sa kanya tungkol sa mga tao, dahil alam niya kung ano ang nasa mga puso nila.

Jesus Changes Water Into Wine

On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee.(A) Jesus’ mother(B) was there, and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. When the wine was gone, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”

“Woman,[a](C) why do you involve me?”(D) Jesus replied. “My hour(E) has not yet come.”

His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”(F)

Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing,(G) each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.[b]

Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim.

Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.”

They did so, and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine.(H) He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 10 and said, “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”

11 What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs(I) through which he revealed his glory;(J) and his disciples believed in him.(K)

12 After this he went down to Capernaum(L) with his mother(M) and brothers(N) and his disciples. There they stayed for a few days.

Jesus Clears the Temple Courts(O)

13 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover,(P) Jesus went up to Jerusalem.(Q) 14 In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves,(R) and others sitting at tables exchanging money.(S) 15 So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. 16 To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house(T) into a market!” 17 His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for your house will consume me.”[c](U)

18 The Jews(V) then responded to him, “What sign(W) can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?”(X)

19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”(Y)

20 They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?” 21 But the temple he had spoken of was his body.(Z) 22 After he was raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said.(AA) Then they believed the scripture(AB) and the words that Jesus had spoken.

23 Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival,(AC) many people saw the signs(AD) he was performing and believed(AE) in his name.[d] 24 But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people. 25 He did not need any testimony about mankind,(AF) for he knew what was in each person.(AG)

And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:

And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.

And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.

Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.

His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.

And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.

Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.

When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.

11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days.

13 And the Jews' passover was at hand, 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 when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;

16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise.

17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.

18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?

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

20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

21 But he spake of the temple of his body.

22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.

24 But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men,

25 And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.
