John 2
New American Standard Bible
Miracle at Cana
2 On (A)the third day there was a wedding in (B)Cana of Galilee, and the (C)mother of Jesus was there; 2 and both Jesus and His (D)disciples were invited to the wedding. 3 When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, “They have no wine.” 4 And Jesus *said to her, “[a](E)What business do you have with Me, (F)woman? (G)My hour has not yet come.” 5 His (H)mother *said to the servants, “Whatever He tells you, do it.” 6 Now there were six stone waterpots standing there (I)for the Jewish custom of purification, containing [b]two or three measures each. 7 Jesus *said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim. 8 And He *said to them, “Draw some out now and take it to the [c]headwaiter.” And they took it to him. 9 Now when the headwaiter tasted the water (J)which had become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter *called the groom, 10 and *said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the guests (K)are drunk, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.” 11 This beginning of His [d](L)signs Jesus did in Cana of (M)Galilee, and revealed His (N)glory; and His disciples believed in Him.
12 After this He went down to (O)Capernaum, He and His (P)mother, and His (Q)brothers and His (R)disciples; and they stayed there a few days.
First Passover—Cleansing the Temple
13 (S)The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus (T)went up to Jerusalem. 14 (U)And within the temple grounds He found those who were selling oxen, sheep, and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. 15 And He made a whip of [e]cords, and drove them all out of the temple area, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables; 16 and to those who were selling (V)the doves He said, “Take these things away from here; stop making (W)My Father’s house a [f]place of business!” 17 His (X)disciples remembered that it was written: “(Y)Zeal for Your house will consume me.” 18 (Z)The Jews then said to Him, “(AA)What sign do You show us [g]as Your authority for doing these things?” 19 Jesus answered them, “(AB)Destroy this [h]temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” 20 (AC)The Jews then said, “It took (AD)forty-six years to build this [i]temple, and yet You will raise it up in three days?” 21 But He was speaking about (AE)the [j]temple of His body. 22 So when He was raised from the dead, His (AF)disciples (AG)remembered that He said this; and they believed (AH)the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.
23 Now when He was in Jerusalem at (AI)the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name as they (AJ)observed His signs which He was doing. 24 But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, because (AK)He knew all people, 25 and because He did not need anyone to testify about mankind, (AL)for He Himself knew what was in mankind.

約翰福音 2
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
變水為酒
2 第三天,在加利利的迦拿有一個婚宴。耶穌的母親在那裡, 2 耶穌和他的門徒們也被邀請赴宴。 3 酒用盡了,耶穌的母親對他說:「他們沒有酒了。」
4 耶穌對她說:「母親[a],這與你我有什麼關係?我的時候還沒有到。」
5 他的母親對僕人們說:「他吩咐你們什麼,你們就做什麼。」
6 照猶太人潔淨的規矩,有六口石缸擺在那裡。每缸可容兩三桶[b]水。
7 耶穌對僕人們說:「把這些缸裝滿水。」他們就裝滿了,直到缸沿。 8 耶穌又對他們說:「現在舀出來,送去給管宴席的。」他們就送去了。
9 當管宴席的嘗了那水變的酒,並不知道這是從哪裡來的,只有舀水的那些僕人知道。管宴席的就叫來新郎, 10 對他說:「人人都是先擺上好酒,等賓客喝醉了,才擺上次等的。你卻把好酒留到現在!」
11 耶穌在加利利的迦拿行了這頭一件神蹟,顯明了他的榮耀,他的門徒們就信了他。
12 這事以後,耶穌和他的母親、兄弟以及他的門徒們,都下到迦百農去,在那裡住了幾天。
潔淨聖殿
13 猶太人的逾越節快到了,耶穌上耶路撒冷去。 14 他看見聖殿裡有賣牛、羊、鴿子的,還有兌換銀幣的人坐在那裡。 15 耶穌就用繩子做了一條鞭子,把所有的牛、羊都從聖殿裡趕出去,倒出兌換銀幣之人的銀幣,並推翻了他們的桌子, 16 又對賣鴿子的人說:「把這些東西從這裡拿走!不要把我父的殿當成做買賣的地方!」
17 他的門徒們就想起經上記著:「我為你的殿,心火焚燒。」[c]
18 於是那些猶太人問耶穌說:「你做這些事,有什麼權柄的[d]憑據給我們看呢?」
19 耶穌回答說:「你們把這聖所毀了吧!三天內我要把它建起來。」
20 那些猶太人說:「這聖所建了四十六年,而你能在三天內把它建起來嗎?」
21 其實耶穌所說的聖所,就是指他自己的身體。 22 當他從死人中復活以後,他的門徒們才想起他說過這話,就相信了經上的話和耶穌所說的話。
23 當耶穌在耶路撒冷過逾越節的時候,許多人看見他所行的這些神蹟,就信了他的名。 24 但耶穌自己卻信不過他們,因為他了解所有的人。 25 他也不需要誰來見證人的事,因為他知道人裡面是什麼。
