² Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding.

⁴⁰ One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was ^(A)Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. ⁴¹ He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, “We have found the ^[a]Messiah” (which is translated, the Christ). ⁴² And he brought him to Jesus.

Now when Jesus looked at him, He said, “You are Simon the son of ^[b]Jonah. ^(B)You shall be called Cephas” (which is translated, ^[c]A Stone).

Philip and Nathanael

⁴³ The following day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee, and He found ^(C)Philip and said to him, “Follow Me.” ⁴⁴ Now ^(D)Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. ⁴⁵ Philip found ^(E)Nathanael and said to him, “We have found Him of whom ^(F)Moses in the law, and also the ^(G)prophets, wrote—Jesus ^(H)of Nazareth, the ^(I)son of Joseph.”

⁴⁶ And Nathanael said to him, ^(J)“Can anything good come out of Nazareth?”

Philip said to him, “Come and see.”

⁴⁷ Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, “Behold, ^(K)an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”

⁴⁸ Nathanael said to Him, “How do You know me?”

Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”

⁴⁹ Nathanael answered and said to Him, “Rabbi, ^(L)You are the Son of God! You are ^(M)the King of Israel!”

¹⁷ And ^(A)whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.

^39 (A)A wife is bound by law as long as her husband lives; but if her husband dies, she is at liberty to be married to whom she wishes, ^(B)only in the Lord.

^4 (A)Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; ^(B)but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.

^31 (A)Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

³⁴ The Son of Man has come ^(A)eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look, a glutton and a ^[a]winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ ^35 (B)But wisdom is justified by all her children.”

A Sinful Woman Forgiven

^36 (C)Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to eat. ³⁷ And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, ³⁸ and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil.

⁴⁵ Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, ^(A)inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’

⁴⁰ And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, ^(A)inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’
