John 2
Holman Christian Standard Bible
The First Sign: Turning Water into Wine
2 On the third day a wedding took place in Cana(A) of Galilee.(B) Jesus’ mother(C) was there, and 2 Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding as well. 3 When the wine ran out, Jesus’ 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[b] 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 20 or 30 gallons.[c]
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 chief servant.”[d] And they did.
9 When the chief servant 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 have drunk freely, the inferior. But you have kept the fine wine until now.”
11 Jesus performed this first sign[e] in Cana(G) of Galilee.(H) He displayed(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 Complex
13 The Jewish Passover(M) was near, so Jesus went up to Jerusalem.(N) 14 In the temple complex(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 complex 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!”[f](T)
17 And His disciples remembered that it is written: Zeal(U) for Your house will consume(V) Me.(W)[g]
18 So the Jews replied to Him, “What sign of authority will You show us for doing these things?”
19 Jesus answered, “Destroy this sanctuary,(X) and I will raise it up in three days.”(Y)
20 Therefore the Jews said, “This sanctuary took 46 years to build, and will You raise it up in three days?”(Z)
21 But He was speaking about the sanctuary 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) at the Passover Festival,(AF) many trusted 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)

Ang Kasalan sa Cana
2 Nang ikatlong araw, nagkaroon ng kasalan sa Cana ng Galilea at naroon ang ina ni Jesus. 2 Inanyayahan din sa kasalan si Jesus at ang kanyang mga alagad. 3 At nang kinulang ang alak, sinabi ng ina ni Jesus sa kanya, “Wala na silang alak.” 4 Kaya't sinabi ni Jesus sa kanya, “Ginang, ano'ng kinalaman nito sa akin at sa iyo? Hindi pa ito ang aking panahon.” 5 Kinausap ng kanyang ina ang mga lingkod, “Gawin ninyo ang anumang sabihin niya.” 6 Mayroon doong anim na banga na ginagamit ng mga Judio sa paglilinis ayon sa Kautusan. Ang bawat isa ay maaaring maglaman ng dalawampu hanggang tatlumpung galong tubig. 7 Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Punuin ninyo ng tubig ang mga banga.” Kaya pinuno nga nila ang mga ito hanggang halos umapaw. 8 At sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Ngayon, kumuha kayo, at dalhin ninyo sa namamahala ng handaan.” Kaya iyon nga ang ginawa nila. 9 Tinikman ng namamahala ng handaan ang tubig na naging alak na. Dahil hindi niya alam kung saan ito nanggaling, bagama't alam ng mga lingkod na kumuha ng tubig, tinawag niya ang lalaking bagong kasal 10 at sinabi sa kanya, “Karaniwang inihahain muna ng tao ang mataas na uri ng alak, at saka pa lamang ihahain ang mababang uri nito kapag ang lahat ay lasing na. Ngunit ngayon mo lamang inilabas ang mataas na uri ng alak.” 11 Ito ang una sa mga himalang ginawa ni Jesus. Nangyari ito sa Cana ng Galilea at sa gayo'y ipinahayag niya ang kanyang kaluwalhatian. At sumampalataya nga sa kanya ang kanyang mga alagad. 12 (A)Pagkaraan nito nagtungo siya sa Capernaum kasama ang kanyang ina, mga kapatid at mga alagad. Doo'y nanatili sila ng ilang araw.
Nilinis ni Jesus ang Templo(B)
13 (C)Malapit na noon ang Pista ng Paskuwa ng mga Judio kaya't pumunta si Jesus sa Jerusalem. 14 Nadatnan niya sa templo ang mga nagtitinda ng mga baka, mga tupa, mga kalapati, at mga mámamalit ng salapi. 15 Dahil dito, gumawa siya ng panghagupit na lubid, at itinaboy niya ang lahat palabas ng templo, kasama ang mga tupa at mga baka. Ipinagtatapon niya ang mga salapi ng mga mámamalit at ipinagtataob ang kanilang mga mesa. 16 Sinabi niya sa mga nagtitinda ng kalapati, “Alisin ninyo ang lahat ng ito! Huwag ninyong gawing palengke ang bahay ng aking Ama.” 17 (D)At naalala ng kanyang mga alagad ang nasusulat, “Ang malasakit para sa iyong bahay ang tutupok sa akin.” 18 Dahil dito, sinabi ng mga Judio sa kanya, “Anong tanda ang maipapakita mo sa amin bilang dahilan para gawin mo ang mga bagay na ito?” 19 (E)Sumagot sa kanila si Jesus, “Gibain ninyo ang templong ito, at sa loob ng tatlong araw ay muli kong itatayo.” 20 Kaya't sinabi ng mga Judio, “Itinayo ang templong ito sa loob ng apatnapu't anim na taon, at itatayo mo ito sa loob lamang ng tatlong araw?” 21 Ngunit ang tinutukoy niyang templo ay ang kanyang katawan. 22 At nang siya'y binuhay mula sa kamatayan, naalala ng kanyang mga alagad ang sinabi niyang ito. Kaya't naniwala sila sa kasulatan at sa salitang sinabi ni Jesus.
Kilala ni Jesus ang Lahat ng Tao
23 Nang siya'y nasa Jerusalem noong Pista ng Paskuwa, marami ang sumampalataya sa kanyang pangalan nang makita nila ang mga himala na kanyang ginawa. 24 Subalit hindi nagtiwala si Jesus sa kanila, 25 dahil kilala niya ang lahat ng mga tao at hindi niya kailangan ang sinuman para magpatunay tungkol sa tao, sapagkat alam niya kung ano ang niloloob nila.
