Water Turned to Wine

On the third day there was a (A)wedding in (B)Cana of Galilee, and the (C)mother of Jesus was there. Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.”

Jesus said to her, (D)“Woman, (E)what does your concern have to do with Me? (F)My hour has not yet come.”

His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.

Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, (G)according to the manner of purification of the Jews, containing twenty or thirty gallons apiece. Jesus said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” And they filled them up to the brim. And He said to them, “Draw some out now, and take it to the master of the feast.” And they took it. When the master of the feast had tasted (H)the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom. 10 And he said to him, “Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have well drunk, then the inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!”

11 This (I)beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, (J)and [a]manifested His glory; and His disciples believed in Him.

12 After this He went down to (K)Capernaum, He, His mother, (L)His brothers, and His disciples; and they did not stay there many days.

Jesus Cleanses the Temple(M)

13 (N)Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 (O)And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers [b]doing business. 15 When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers’ money and overturned the tables. 16 And He said to those who sold doves, “Take these things away! Do not make (P)My Father’s house a house of merchandise!” 17 Then His disciples remembered that it was written, (Q)“Zeal for Your house [c]has eaten Me up.”

18 So the Jews answered and said to Him, (R)“What sign do You show to us, since You do these things?”

19 Jesus answered and said to them, (S)“Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”

20 Then the Jews said, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?”

21 But He was speaking (T)of the temple of His body. 22 Therefore, when He had risen from the dead, (U)His disciples remembered that He had said this [d]to them; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.

The Discerner of Hearts

23 Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name when they saw the (V)signs which He did. 24 But Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because He (W)knew all men, 25 and had no need that anyone should testify of man, for (X)He knew what was in man.

På tredje dagen var ett bröllop i Kana i Galileen, och Jesu moder var där.

Också Jesus och hans lärjungar blevo bjudna till bröllopet.

Och vinet begynte taga slut. Då sade Jesu moder till honom: »De hava intet vin.»

Jesus svarade henne: »Låt mig vara, moder; min stund är ännu icke kommen.»

Hans moder sade då till tjänarna: »Vadhelst han säger till eder, det skolen I göra.»

Nu stodo där sex stenkrukor, sådana som judarna hade för sina reningar; de rymde två eller tre bat-mått var.

Jesus sade till dem: »Fyllen krukorna med vatten.» Och de fyllde dem ända till brädden.

Sedan sade han till dem: »Ösen nu upp och bären till övertjänaren.» Och de gjorde så.

Och övertjänaren smakade på vattnet, som nu hade blivit vin; och han visste icke varifrån det hade kommit, vilket däremot tjänarna visste, de som hade öst upp vattnet. Då kallade övertjänaren på brudgummen.

10 och sade till honom: »Man brukar eljest alltid sätta fram det goda vinet, och sedan, när gästerna hava fått för mycket, det som är sämre. Du har gömt det goda vinet ända tills nu.»

11 Detta var det första tecknet som Jesus gjorde. Han gjorde det i Kana i Galileen och uppenbarade så sin härlighet; och hans lärjungar trodde på honom.

12 Därefter begav han sig ned till Kapernaum med sin moder och sina bröder och sina lärjungar; och där stannade de några få dagar.

13 Judarnas påsk var nu nära, och Jesus begav sig då upp till Jerusalem.

14 Och när han fick i helgedomen se huru där sutto män som sålde fäkreatur och får och duvor, och huru växlare sutto där.

15 Då gjorde han sig ett gissel av tåg och drev dem alla ut ur helgedomen, med får och fäkreatur, och slog ut växlarnas penningar och stötte omkull deras bord.

16 Och till duvomånglarna sade han: »Tagen bort detta härifrån; gören icke min Faders hus till ett marknadshus.»

17 Hans lärjungar kommo då ihåg att det var skrivet: »Nitälskan för ditt hus skall förtära mig.»

18 Då togo judarna till orda och sade till honom: »Vad för tecken låter du oss se, eftersom du gör på detta sätt?»

19 Jesus svarade och sade till dem: »Bryten ned detta tempel, så skall jag inom tre dagar låta det uppstå igen.»

20 Då sade judarna: »I fyrtiosex år har man byggt på detta tempel, och du skulle låta det uppstå igen inom tre dagar?»

21 Men det var om sin kropps tempel han talade.

22 Sedan, när han hade uppstått från de döda, kommo hans lärjungar ihåg att han hade sagt detta; och de trodde då skriften och det ord som Jesus hade sagt.

23 Medan han nu var i Jerusalem, under påsken, vid högtiden, kommo många till tro på hans namn, när de sågo de tecken som han gjorde.

24 Men själv betrodde sig Jesus icke åt dem, eftersom han kände alla

25 och icke behövde någon annans vittnesbörd om människorna; ty av sig själv visste han vad i människan var.

And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:

And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.

And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.

Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.

His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.

And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.

Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.

When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.

11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days.

13 And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

14 And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:

15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;

16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise.

17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.

18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?

19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

21 But he spake of the temple of his body.

22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.

24 But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men,

25 And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.
