Nunta din Cana

A treia zi s-a făcut o nuntă în Cana(A) din Galileea. Mama lui Isus era acolo. Şi la nuntă a fost chemat şi Isus cu ucenicii Lui. Când s-a isprăvit vinul, mama lui Isus I-a zis: „Nu mai au vin”. Isus i-a răspuns: „Femeie(B), ce(C) am a face Eu cu tine? Nu Mi-a venit încă ceasul(D).” Mama lui a zis slugilor: „Să faceţi orice vă va zice”. Şi acolo erau şase vase de piatră, puse după(E) obiceiul de curăţire al iudeilor; şi în fiecare vas încăpeau câte două sau trei vedre. Isus le-a zis: „Umpleţi vasele acestea cu apă”. Şi le-au umplut până sus. „Scoateţi acum”, le-a zis El, „şi aduceţi nunului”. Şi i-au adus. Nunul, după ce a gustat apa(F) făcută vin (el nu ştia de unde vine vinul acesta, slugile însă, care scoseseră apa, ştiau), a chemat pe mire 10 şi i-a zis: „Orice om pune la masă întâi vinul cel bun şi, după ce oamenii au băut bine, atunci pune pe cel mai puţin bun, dar tu ai ţinut vinul cel bun până acum”. 11 Acest început al semnelor Lui l-a făcut Isus în Cana din Galileea. El Şi-a(G) arătat slava Sa, şi ucenicii Lui au crezut în El. 12 După aceea, S-a pogorât la Capernaum, împreună cu mama, fraţii(H) şi ucenicii Lui şi acolo n-au rămas multe zile.

Izgonirea vânzătorilor din Templu

13 Paştele(I) iudeilor erau aproape şi Isus S-a suit la Ierusalim. 14 În Templu a găsit(J) pe cei ce vindeau boi, oi şi porumbei şi pe schimbătorii de bani şezând jos. 15 A făcut un bici de ştreanguri şi i-a scos pe toţi din Templu, împreună cu oile şi boii, a vărsat banii schimbătorilor şi le-a răsturnat mesele. 16 Şi a zis celor ce vindeau porumbei: „Ridicaţi acestea de aici şi nu faceţi din casa(K) Tatălui Meu o casă de negustorie.” 17 Ucenicii Lui şi-au adus aminte că este scris: „Râvna(L) pentru casa Ta Mă mănâncă pe Mine”. 18 Iudeii au luat cuvântul şi I-au zis: „Prin ce(M) semn ne arăţi că ai putere să faci astfel de lucruri?” 19 Drept răspuns, Isus le-a zis: „Stricaţi(N) templul acesta, şi în trei zile îl voi ridica”. 20 Iudeii au zis: „Au trebuit patruzeci şi şase de ani ca să se zidească templul acesta, şi Tu îl vei ridica în trei zile?” 21 Dar El le vorbea despre(O) templul trupului Său. 22 Tocmai de aceea, când a înviat din morţi, ucenicii Lui şi-au(P) adus aminte că le spusese vorbele acestea şi au crezut Scriptura şi cuvintele pe care le spusese Isus.

Isus şi cei ce cred în Numele Lui

23 Pe când era Isus în Ierusalim, la Praznicul Paştelor, mulţi au crezut în Numele Lui, căci vedeau semnele pe care le făcea. 24 Dar Isus nu Se încredea în ei, pentru că îi cunoştea pe toţi. 25 Şi n-avea trebuinţă să-I facă cineva mărturisiri despre niciun om, fiindcă El(Q) Însuşi ştia ce este în om.

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.
