John 2

The First Sign: Turning Water into Wine
2 On the third day a wedding took place in Cana(A) of Galilee.(B) Jesus’s mother(C) was there, 2 and Jesus and his disciples were invited to the wedding as well. 3 When the wine ran out, Jesus’s mother told him, “They don’t have any wine.”
4 “What has this concern of yours to do with me,[a](D) woman?”(E) Jesus asked. “My hour has not yet come.”
5 “Do whatever he tells you,” his mother told the servants.
6 Now six stone water jars had been set there for Jewish purification.(F) Each contained twenty or thirty gallons.[b]
7 “Fill the jars with water,” Jesus told them. So they filled them to the brim. 8 Then he said to them, “Now draw some out and take it to the headwaiter.”[c] And they did.
9 When the headwaiter tasted the water (after it had become wine), he did not know where it came from—though the servants who had drawn the water knew. He called the groom 10 and told him, “Everyone sets out the fine wine first, then, after people are drunk, the inferior. But you have kept the fine wine until now.”
11 Jesus did this, the first of his signs, in Cana(G) of Galilee.(H) He revealed(I) his glory,(J) and his disciples believed in him.
12 After this, he went down to Capernaum,(K) together with his mother, his brothers,(L) and his disciples, and they stayed there only a few days.
Cleansing the Temple
13 The Jewish Passover(M) was near, and so Jesus went up to Jerusalem.(N) 14 In the temple(O) he found people selling oxen, sheep, and doves, and he also found the money changers sitting there. 15 After making a whip out of cords,(P) he drove everyone out of the temple with their sheep(Q) and oxen. He also poured out the money changers’ coins and overturned the tables. 16 He told those who were selling doves, “Get these things out of here! Stop turning my Father’s(R) house(S) into a marketplace!”[d](T)
17 And his disciples remembered that it is written: Zeal(U) for your house will consume(V) me.[e](W)
18 So the Jews replied to him, “What sign will you show us for doing these things?”
19 Jesus answered, “Destroy this temple,[f](X) and I will raise it up in three days.”(Y)
20 Therefore the Jews said, “This temple took forty-six years to build,[g] and will you raise it up in three days?” (Z)
21 But he was speaking about the temple of his body.(AA) 22 So when he was raised from the dead,(AB) his disciples remembered that he had said this,(AC) and they believed the Scripture(AD) and the statement Jesus had made.
23 While he was in Jerusalem(AE) during the Passover Festival,(AF) many believed in his name(AG) when they saw the signs he was doing. 24 Jesus, however, would not entrust himself to them, since he knew them all 25 and because he did not need anyone to testify about man; for he himself knew what was in man.(AH)

Svadba u Kani
2 Trećega je dana bila svadba u Kani, u Galileji. Ondje je bila Isusova majka. 2 Isus i njegovi učenici također su bili pozvani na svadbu. 3 Kad je ponestalo vina, Isusova je majka rekla Isusu: »Nemaju više vina.«
4 »Draga ženo, zašto to meni govoriš?« odvratio joj je Isus. »Moje vrijeme još nije došlo.«
5 Njegova se majka obratila poslužiteljima: »Učinite što god vam kaže!«
6 Bilo je ondje šest kamenih vrčeva za vodu—kakve su Židovi upotrebljavali pri obrednom pranju[a]. Svaki od njih sadržavao je osamdeset do sto dvadeset litara[b].
7 Isus je rekao poslužiteljima: »Napunite vrčeve vodom!« I oni su ih napunili do vrha.
8 Tada im je rekao: »Sada odlijte malo i odnesite glavnom poslužitelju.«
Tako su i učinili. 9 Glavni je poslužitelj uzeo gutljaj, ali voda se pretvorila u vino. Nije znao odakle je vino došlo, no znali su poslužitelji koji su nalili vodu. Tada je glavni poslužitelj pozvao mladoženju i 10 rekao mu: »Svatko najprije poslužuje dobro vino, a potom, kad se gosti ponapiju, lošije. A ti si dobro vino čuvao sve do sada.«
11 Ovaj, prvi od svojih čudesnih znakova, Isus je učinio u Kani Galilejskoj. Time je pokazao svoje veličanstvo[c] i njegovi su učenici povjerovali u njega.
12 Nakon toga, sa svojom se majkom, braćom i učenicima spustio u Kafarnaum gdje su se zadržali nekoliko dana.
Isus u Hramu
(Mt 21,12-13; Mk 11,15-17; Lk 19,45-46)
13 Bližio se židovski blagdan Pasha pa se Isus popeo u Jeruzalem. 14 U Hramu je zatekao trgovce kako prodaju stoku, ovce i golubove. Ondje su za svojim klupama sjedili i mjenjači novca.[d] 15 Načinio je bič od konopa i sve ih istjerao iz Hrama, zajedno s ovcama i ostalom stokom. Mjenjačima je novca prosuo srebrnjake i isprevrtao klupe. 16 Prodavačima golubova je rekao: »Nosite to odavde! Ne činite od kuće moga Oca tržnicu!«
17 Njegovi su se učenici sjetili teksta zapisanog u Svetom pismu:
»Strast za tvoju kuću gori u meni.«[e]
18 Na to su Židovi rekli: »Učini neki čudesan znak! Dokaži nam da to imaš pravo činiti!«
19 Isus im je odgovorio: »Srušite ovaj hram i ja ću ga ponovo podići za tri dana.«
20 »Ovaj Hram gradio se četrdeset i šest godina«, odvratili su mu Židovi, »a ti ćeš ga podići za tri dana?«
21 No hram o kojem je govorio bilo je njegovo tijelo. 22 Kad je uskrsnuo od mrtvih, njegovi su se učenici sjetili tih riječi te su povjerovali i Svetom pismu i Isusovim riječima.
23 Dok je Isus bio u Jeruzalemu u vrijeme blagdana Pashe, mnogi su povjerovali u njega jer su vidjeli čuda koja je činio. 24 No Isus se njima nije povjeravao jer je dobro poznavao kakvi su ljudi. 25 Nitko mu nije trebao reći kakvi su jer je poznavao ljudsko srce.
