John 2

Wycliffe Bible

2 And the third day weddings were made in the Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there.

² And Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the weddings.

³ And when wine failed, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have not wine.

⁴ And Jesus saith to her, What to me and to thee, woman? mine hour came not yet.

⁵ His mother saith to the ministers, Whatever thing he saith to you, do ye.

⁶ And there were set six stone cans, after the cleansing of the Jews, holding each two or three metretes. [Forsooth there were put six stone pots, after the cleansing of Jews, taking each two or three measures.]

⁷ And Jesus saith to them, Fill ye the pots with water. And they filled them, up to the mouth. [Jesus saith to them, Fill ye the pots with water. And they filled them unto the highest part.]

⁸ And Jesus said to them, Draw ye now, and bear ye to the master of the feast^[a]. And they bare.

⁹ And when the master of the feast had tasted the water made wine, and knew not whereof it was, but the ministers knew that drew the water^[b], the master of the feast calleth the spouse,

¹⁰ and saith to him, Each man setteth first good wine, and when men be filled, then that that is worse; but thou hast kept the good wine into this time. [and saith to him, Each man putteth first good wine, and when men shall be full-filled, then that that is worse; soothly thou hast kept good wine till now.]

¹¹ Jesus did this the beginning of signs in the Cana of Galilee, and showed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

¹² After these things he came down to Capernaum, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples; and they dwelled there not many days [and they dwelt there not many days].

¹³ And the pask of Jews was nigh, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

¹⁴ And he found in the temple men selling oxen, and sheep, and culvers, and [money-]changers sitting.

¹⁵ And when he had made as it were a scourge of small cords, he drove out all of the temple, and oxen, and sheep^[c]; and he shedded [out] the money of changers, and turned upside-down the boards.

¹⁶ And he said to them that sold culvers, Take away from hence these things, and do not ye make the house of my Father an house of merchandise.

¹⁷ And his disciples had mind, for it was written, The fervent love of thine house hath eaten me [The zeal, or fervour of love, of thine house hath eaten me].

¹⁸ Therefore the Jews answered, and said to him, What token showest thou to us [What sign, or token, showest thou to us], that thou doest these things?

¹⁹ Jesus answered, and said to them, Undo ye this temple, and in three days I shall raise it.

²⁰ Therefore the Jews said to him, In forty and six years this temple was builded, and shalt thou in three days raise it [In forty and six years this temple is built, and thou in three days shalt raise it]?

²¹ But he said of the temple of his body.

²² Therefore when he was risen from death, his disciples had mind, that he said these things of his body [Therefore when he had risen from dead men, his disciples had mind, for he said this thing]; and they believed to the scripture, and to the word that Jesus said.

²³ And when Jesus was at Jerusalem in pask, in the feast day, many believed in his name, seeing his signs that he did [seeing the signs of him which he did].

²⁴ But Jesus trusted not himself to them, for he knew all men;

²⁵ and for it was not need to him, that any man should bear witnessing of man, for he knew, what was in man.
